This blog gives you a glimpse into the upcoming Sunday Gathering. It's an opportunity for you to read through the passage we'll be studying together, pray through some of the liturgy we'll be using, and listen to a selection of the songs we’ll be singing.
The New Story of Work
SERMON
This week Gary will be preaching through various bible passages on The New Story of Work found in scripture.
LITURGY
Confession & Assurance
So often we fail to believe the gospel in our lives. We forget our identity is in Christ and run to so many other things to find it.
Heavenly father, forgive us for finding our identity and worth in what we do. Remind us that we can't earn our salvation, that we are not justified by our works but by faith in Christ.
Help us by your Spirit to find our identity and worth in you and we pray that this would free us to do all things for your glory, to enjoy our work lived out in worship of you.
The assurance of the gospel is that because of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross we have been adopted into God's family. Our identity is as children of God, not because of anything we've done but because of everything that Christ has done.
MUSIC
Grace Alone (Dustin Kensrue): A glorious reminder of our salvation through grace and grace alone. A chance for us to remember what Christ has done for us and that we have no means of earning our salvation.
- Before The Throne of God Above (Sovereign Grace Music): A reflection on the assurance we have in the gospel, that we can boldly approach God’s throne knowing that in Christ we are perfected and made clean.
