Sunday Morning | March 9, 2026 | John C. Majors | Louisville, KY
In part five of the Knowing God is Loving God series, the sermon focuses on humanity and teaches that what we believe about God—and about ourselves according to God’s Word—shapes everything about our lives. Humans are uniquely created by God and intentionally formed, as seen in Psalm 139, and are made in the image of God (Genesis 1:26–28), which is expressed through our responsibility to exercise wise dominion over creation, through God’s design of humanity as male and female—both equally valued and reflecting relational aspects of the Trinity—and through the calling to be fruitful and multiply, ultimately pointing to making disciples (Matthew 28). However, sin has distorted the image of God in us, bringing brokenness into creation (Romans 5:12; 8:22). Through Christ, believers can live in a redeemed image of God by receiving their identity as a gift rather than something achieved (Ephesians 1), remembering that they have been freed from the dominion of sin though its presence remains (Romans 6–8), choosing daily to feed the Spirit rather than the flesh through God’s Word and prayer, and ultimately living with hearts set on worship, remembering that humanity was created to glorify God (Colossians 3:2).
You can join us on Sunday mornings at 11 AM for worship. We are located at 8911 3rd Street Road, Louisville KY 40272.
