Acts 9:10-19, 26-31
God has made us partners of the gospel, and He uses mutual relationships in order to reach His goal to make us like Christ, and build His church. As we look at Philippians 1, we’ll see how God uses other people in our lives to help us grow and bring joy and thankfulness.
We’re tempted to approach life like it’s something that we can control. But when we do, it frustrates us and disappoints us. This message looks at how to find joy in life despite the unpredictability of life and the certainty of death.
We live in a culture where we’re trained to compete and taught to achieve. But the rewards don’t seem to satisfy, and our relationships are thinner than ever. This message looks at what happens when our goals are big and people are small and gives ways that we can build the kind of relationships that both strengthen and sustain us.
Ecclesiastes 4:1-16 // [outline]
Relationships are a foundational part of life. Whether it is our spouse, parents, siblings, friends, or co-workers, we all depend on relationships. Sadly, despite their importance, relationships can be so hard to forge, develop, and maintain. In this sermon, we move past the world’s advice, dig into Scripture, and learn what God says about how we should approach our various relationships.
