1 Peter 2:9-12 - In part 3 of our vision series we consider how we are to “boldly go.” Rooted in our identity together as “holy exiles” chiefly allegiant to King Jesus, we are to embrace a posture of love toward our city and neighbors, in word and in deed. A sermon by Cameron Heger. [Part 3 of our series “Confidently Be, Boldly Go: On the Dance of Family Formation and Neighbor Witness”]
Questions for reflection: 1) Do you personally tend toward separating into a holy huddle OR assimilating into a fan club in relation to our cultural environment? 2) How have you felt the reality of living as a “holy exile” or “ambassador” in your day-to-day life? 3) How does the idea of evangelizing sit with you? Why? 4) How would you describe your own degree of being wowed with the beauty and goodness of Jesus? 5) What is one population in Portland you struggle to love? Why? 6) What is one population in Portland that your heart really beats for? Why? 7) Why do you think faith and love expressed in word AND deed are so important across the Bible?
