God's Truth, God's Grace - New Port Presbyterian Church

Marc Davis, speaker at our recent Gospel-Centered Life Weekend Retreat, opened God's word for us this past Sunday. Marc preached on John 1:35-51 where we see that the Christian faith is a love relationship with Jesus, a living Person, who welcomes us, knows us, and holds our future. Be encouraged to talk with Him and look with faith and expectancy toward the future He holds. He's on His throne but also a friend to sinners who need His grace and welcome. Marc serves from the Serge home office as an Associate Area Director for Renewal, and in that role is excited to be connected to the movement of God's kingdom through many people in many places. He wants to see missionaries, pastors, and others involved in ministry empowered by the gospel to live lives of great freedom in dependence on Jesus for everything.

Guest Preacher, Jason Moore, preaches on Colossians 3:12-17. Who we are in Christ influences how we live as a Christian community; a community so unique it's only possible by allowing Christ to dwell in our hearts.

Our guest preacher, Bill Meyers, blesses us with this sermon based on Isaiah 6. 

As we look at Matthew 21:12-16, we see Jesus brought disruption, cleansing, and restoration of proper functioning in the temple. He does the same for us. Where might we need Him to do that in our lives? 

Pastor Darrell began preaching this week in chapter seven verses one through five in the book of Matthew where we are encouraged to consider what Jesus means when He says to, "Judge not." Jesus calls us in this passage to remember that we are not all-knowing, to not have contempt for others, to not have a sense of superiority over others, to remember our own sin, and to have the right motive when confronting another. A right motivation will involve gentle restoration, bearing the burden of another, and humbly helping. We pray you will have a blessed time of worship.
