From Hope to Following the King
This past Sunday we were reminded of the foundation of our hope. Our hope is not in our circumstances, our strength, or our ability to hold on. Our hope is in the risen Christ. Because our hope is in Him, we anchor ourselves in God’s Word. His Word continually points us to Christ, shapes our hearts, and teaches us how to live faithfully in a changing world. Pastor John reminded us that faithful followers of Jesus keep their eyes fixed on Christ, anchor themselves in God’s Word, and trust God with the results. But that naturally leads to another question: What does faithful living actually look like? Faithfulness is more than believing the right things. It is learning to live every part of life under the reign of the right King. That’s where we’re headed over the next three weeks. Beginning this Sunday, we’ll start a new series called Seek First, following Jesus’ teaching from Matthew 6, Matthew 13, and Matthew 7. Together we’ll discover what it means to live as citizens of God’s Kingdom. Week 1 — Seek the Right Kingdom Matthew 6:19–34 What do you treasure? How do you see the world? Where does your allegiance truly lie? Week 2 — Be the Right Soil Matthew 13:1–23 Jesus teaches that the condition of our hearts determines how we receive His Word and whether our lives bear fruit for His Kingdom. Week 3 — Build on the Right Foundation Matthew 7:13–27 Every life is built on something. Jesus calls us not merely to hear His words, but to put them into practice by building our lives on Him. As you prepare your heart this week, spend a few moments reflecting on these questions: What do I value most? How do I see the world? Where does my allegiance truly lie? My prayer is that throughout this series God would continue shaping us—not simply into people who know about His Kingdom, but into people who joyfully live under the loving rule and reign of King Jesus. We’d love for you to join us this Sunday as we begin Seek First. Sunday School: 9:30 AM Worship Gathering: 10:45 AM “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Matthew 6:33 -Pastor Michael
