God's Promise of Mission
Our Epiphany worship series is focusing on God’s enduring promises as we enter a new year with all of its changes. We find comfort, hope and strength that God’s promises are sure. Today we reflect on God’s promise of mission. We are salt and light for a world in need. This isn’t merely a task to be accomplished, but a reflection of who we are, the identity He has given us as His followers. How is He calling us to be salt and light today?
From Series: "New Year, Same Promises"
A new year means a new start. And because of that, many of us take up new commitments and resolutions to improve ourselves: diet, exercise, lifestyle, etc. Sometimes things actually change. Other times the change is only temporary. But despite changes that may come, we can rely on God’s promises to be the same. No matter how much our lives change, or this world changes, His promises do not. No matter what good or ill may be around the corner in the coming year, His promises can be counted on to be true and trustworthy through it. Our Epiphany Worship series, starting January 8, is entitled “New Year, Same Promises.” We will consider the enduring grace, mercy and blessing of God’s familiar promises and what they mean in the challenges and opportunities of the new year.
