To Defend and Confirm

In today's sermon, we are reminded of the importance of guarding our faith and the challenges we face in a world where many are deconstructing their beliefs. We recognize that the term "deconstruction" has gained popularity, often leading individuals away from the orthodox Christian Gospel and towards a rejection of faith altogether. We are called to defend and confirm our faith, understanding that questions and doubts are a normal part of our spiritual journey, but we must seek deep answers rather than settle for shallow ones. As we prepare for the spiritual battles that lie ahead, we are encouraged to engage with the core issues of the Gospel, knowing that it is through Christ that we find true life and purpose. Ultimately, we affirm that the Gospel is worth defending and sharing, as it brings abundant life to all who believe. (Philippians 1.7) October 13, 2024.
