Weekend Service for January 14
Scripture Reading: Hebrews 1:5-8, 2 Timothy 2:2-7, 1 Peter 5:2-4
In this sermon, Josh, a pastor in the process of taking over from his father, Pastor Myke, shares his vision for the church's future. Reflecting on his spiritual journey and the transition process, he draws inspiration from the natural growth represented by a scenic view of Canadaigua Lake and the gardener and the vine parable in John 15. Josh intends to focus on growth in the church and aims to explore various aspects of its spiritual development in upcoming sermons. Drawing on biblical references such as Hebrews 13:5-8 and 2 Timothy 2:2-7, he emphasizes the importance of trusting in God's help, deepening spiritual growth, and teaching and discipleship. Josh also acknowledges the responsibility of caring for the flock entrusted to him and invites the congregation to help him grow as a spiritual leader.
