Luke 11:1-13
Luka 11:1-13


Listen to the sermon from Pastor Bruce and then use the following questions to reflect.

Sermon Follow Up Questions:
1. What do you think a life of discontentment would look like? Where do you think it would lead?
2. Who is someone you know who is truly content? What do you think helps make them that way?

Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart. We have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry, and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us, that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your name. Amen.

Me? Holy?

Romans 8:9-17
Warumi 8:9-17


Me? Holy? I can't do that! I can't reach that.
You're right, YOU can't. For years I struggled with the concept of holiness. How does it happen? What does it look like? How do I get there?
These questions were constantly pulling at me.
Scripture tells us that God calls us to holiness, but how do I "make it happen?" How do I "get there?" -- The answer is actually pretty simple: YOU don't! Let's spend some time diving into this.

Suggested songs:
This is the Day/Siku Ni Hii
I Am
Come As You Are
​Our God
