    Passage: Matthew 14:22-32. It's likely our last official sermon. What should we say? What's important to remind each other? How about: Do not be afraid. A common Bible refrain. Yes, sometimes we end up in scary unknowns. Sometimes Jesus leads us there himself. But we are not to fear. This is the journey of faith and the choice we have to trust and follow, especially when it's hard!  Disclaimer: this sermon has borrowed from material in "Three Levels of Faith" a very great message by John Mark Comer.

    Passage: Proverbs 3:5-6. What if Trust is what this is all about? The case can be made that this is our part in the thru-story of God's activity: learning to trust. Wisdom will counsel us that things will be better if we choose this road! But why doesn't my road look very straight?

    Passage: Ephesians 4:1-6. It really isn't enough for someone to believe that God loves them and has imparted every spiritual blessing possible. There eventually comes the moment when people might ask, yes but does it change your life? And the answer is that it should. It is fitting. It makes sense. This kind of earth shattering news (that Jesus came to change everything) must eventually result in resounding life transformation.  This is part of the Beautiful Resistance sermon series on Ephesians.
