(Primary scriptures: Luke 9:27-26;10:38-39)

We are looking this week at the remarkable way in which God chose to interact with men, and what it says about His heart toward His creation.

(Primary scriptures: Matthew 8:1-4; Luke 4:40-41)

The life of Jesus is significant, not only for what He did, but for who He was. Considering the manner in which He came to us draws our attention to the Man and who He was: God with us.

(Primary scriptures: Luke 2:8-14; Matthew 1:22-23)

This first week we’re looking at the eternally pre-existent Christ and what God was like “in the beginning.”

(Primary scriptures: John 1:1-5, Proverbs 8:30-31, Genesis 1, Psalm 45)

He is at once the Unseen God – Maker of Heaven and Earth, the historic figure Jesus of Nazareth whose real interactions with dust and humanity we can behold, and the Spirit of the Living God who now dwells in us. In beholding Jesus as He went about life in Judea 2000 years ago, we behold eternal truths about the heart of Our Creator, and we come to know the Holy One who is here now going about life in us.
(Primary scriptures: Psalm 27:4, John 17:26)

At this chapter of history, just like every other, the Person of Christ is to be our primary pursuit – the knowledge of Him through Scripture and fellowship with Him by the indwelling Spirit.
(Primary scriptures: Colossians 1, John 1)

This week we’re looking at the bulk of the sermon that describes a lifestyle of surrender that cries before God and man that God is our portion and exceedingly great reward.

God wants to give us influence over spheres and places as our inheritance. The kingdom call to meekness is how we enter into that inheritance by releasing that cry of our heart in such a way as to further the kingdom of God on earth.

Cultivating a heart that longs for Jesus is how we invite the presence of God in our lives and cities in greater measure.
