What comes next? Pt. 1

May 4, 2025    Pastor Jacob Gray

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the importance of building our lives on a solid foundation - Jesus Christ. Drawing from Acts 1 and Mark 16, we explore how Jesus spent His final 40 days on earth reinforcing this foundation for His disciples. The lesson challenges us to examine our own spiritual foundations. Are we truly rooted in Christ, or are we building on shifting sands? We're encouraged to let the Holy Spirit be our teacher in all things, empowering us to live lives that fully please God. This isn't about perfection, but about allowing God's power to work through us, producing fruit in every area of our lives. The message urges us to move beyond simply avoiding sin, and instead actively pursue good works that honor God. As we face life's challenges, we're reminded of the victorious future awaiting us - Christ's return. This hope should fuel our perseverance and inspire us to live with purpose, knowing that our labor in the Lord is not in vain.
