The Bible's message about Jesus is life changingCity on a Hill Evangelical Church
This Sunday, we dive into our new series on the Apostles’ Creed. Over the coming term we’ll work our way, bit by bit, through each part of this ancient confession of faith.
I confess I’ve been looking forward to this series since I heard earlier this year that it was happening. The Apostles’ Creed is such a beautiful and important reminder for us as God’s people.
The Creed reminds us we’re part of something bigger than ourselves. In our independent church planted in 2014, it’s easy to drift into thinking that we’re ‘our own thing’ or that we need to work out the truth all on our own.
This week I came across a blog that promised I could discover my life’s purpose in 20 minutes.
The method was simple. Take out a blank page. Write at the top, “What is my true purpose in life?” Then keep writing answers until one of them makes you cry. Apparently, when you get to that answer, you have found your purpose.
Now, I don’t want to be too dismissive. There is something right about slowing down, asking deep questions, and paying attention to what moves us. Most of us probably do not do that enough.
