July 6, 2008 – “Church is the place where we tell the truth”

In this sermon, based on Romans 7:15-25a, Pastor Steve Cook speaks about church - the community of Jesus Followers - as a place for truth telling. Whenever and wherever Jesus Followers gather we can speak of the truth that this world is a broken hurting place, filled with broken hurting people. Even more importantly, Church is the place where we can speak the more powerful truth that this world is not the world the Creator had in mind. The Good News is that there is a whole new world coming, the world the Creator had in mind from the beginning. In the death and resurrection Jesus we are set free to live into God’s New Reality now.

Texts:
Zechariah 9:9-12
Romans 7:15-25a
Matthew 11:16-19, 25-30
