Last week we learned that God isn’t absent when He is silent. We tackled a difficult passage where Jesus seems to be out of character. In our Gospel lesson from Matthew, a desperate mother refuses to give up, even when the answer she’s looking for does not come easily. Her encounter with Jesus reminds us that great faith does not mean having all the answers—it means knowing where to go when we don’t.

This week, Jesus asks a defining question: “Who do you say that I am?” We’ll discover how Peter’s answer and Paul’s call to become “living sacrifices” show us that following Jesus is much more than believing the right things—it is about becoming disciples whose lives are transformed. And we’ll explore five practical ways to live as disciples: know Christ, offer ourselves, renew our minds, use our gifts, and help make other disciples.

Title and Readings
“What’s the Word on the Street?”
Romans 12:1-8
Matthew 16:13-20

Join us Sunday morning at 9:15am.
All are welcome!
