Sunday Morning

Christ above all

Philippians 1:12-26 Are Christians called to live a safe life? If so, it appears the apostle Paul didn’t get the memo. As he reflects on his imprisonment for Christ in Philippians 1, it is clear that in order to live a faithful, fulfilled, gospel-shaped life, then our own self-preservation mustn’t be our priority.

A set-apart community

Exodus 35-39 Exodus 35-39 gives us a glimpse of what it can look like when God’s special people live out their special purpose in this world.

Romans 9:1-29, 11:33-36 This passage introduces a tension which the rest of Romans 9-11 seeks to resolve. How are we to reconcile the incredible promises and privileges given to Israel with their present rejection of the Messiah (and yet the Gentiles have received him)? Has God’s word failed? (9:6) Has God rejected his people? (11:1) Is there any future hope for Israel? (11:11) These questions and more are addressed in the chapters to follow, as Paul helps the Roman church…
