A good morning together at our 10:30 gathering today — singing, praying, opening God’s Word together, and then lingering over BBQ Sunday afterwards.
It was particularly encouraging to hear from our youth about their week away at Youthworks LiT. We appreciated their honesty as they shared some of the things they found challenging, what they enjoyed, what they learnt, and how they were encouraged in their faith. It was good to have them home and to hear a little of what God has been doing in them over the week.
Dean continued our series in 2 Timothy 3, asking two questions: What do we need to know? And why do we need to know it?
Paul doesn’t pretend that following Jesus will always be easy. He tells Timothy that there will be difficult times, and that those who seek to live a godly life will face opposition. But Timothy is to continue in what he has learned and become convinced of, remembering the people who taught him and the Scriptures he has known from childhood.
And we have what we need. All Scripture is God-breathed — teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training us in righteousness, so that we are thoroughly equipped for every good work.
A helpful reminder as we head into another week: keep holding onto God’s Word, keep living out our faith, and keep pointing others to the hope we have in Jesus.
And a BBQ, good conversation, and time together was a pretty good way to finish the morning.
