INTRO: How do you decide what is true, if anything is? What is Truth?

THE UGLY TRUTH
What consistently drives unbelief and how does it affect our city?

THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD
What is at the foundation of our confidence as Christians?

IF YOU ABIDE IN MY WORD
How does Jesus promise us gracious hope?

YOU CAN PRAY WITH US …

  1. Worship the LORD, our Maker, for His supreme wisdom and authority. Praise Him, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, that in His Word He has given us the ultimate Gift, from Creation to Redemption to His resolution of all things.
  2. How have you willfully ignored what God has revealed about Himself and your own heart? Confess your darkness to Jesus and trust Him to be light to you, to cleanse you and to give you meaning and direction.
  3. Give thanks to Jesus for His grace to reveal Himself to us, His good design for us, and His work to redeem us for our breaking of all His will. Thank Him for embodying all of the Father’s commands, fulfilling all of His promises.
  4. Who do you know who does not know God? Pray for them, asking the Lord to reveal Himself to them, and to use you to convey His love and grace to them.
  5. Ask the Holy Spirit to grow your understanding of what it means that Jesus perfectly reveals the Father. Ask for greater insight into Jesus’ character and His work to reconcile you to the Father.

The Facilitator is a study tool designed to help you engage with the weekly sermon through the five elements we incorporate in our Community Groups; Get Acquainted & Sharing, Sermon Study, Mission, Worship and Prayer. This tool will be made available Monday morning to give us the opportunity to look back at what we heard on Sunday.
