Will of God Part 6

About this episode

In this episode, Dave Sommerdorf discusses the will of God, focusing on sanctification and the role of believers as ambassadors for Christ.

In this episode of Wisdom from the Word , David Sommerdorf continues his study on the will of God, moving from the foundational gift of salvation to the essential call of sanctification. While God desires for all to be saved, He also calls His children to be clean-living and God-fearing representatives of His Kingdom. Sommerdorf explores the powerful concept of being an ambassador for Christ, drawing from 2 Corinthians 5 to explain that believers no longer represent themselves, but a heavenly country and a holy King. Through a humorous and humbling personal story about driving a marked church van in North Pole, Alaska, he illustrates how the realization of who we represent should radically change how we conduct ourselves in public. Join us as we reflect on the privilege of living a holy life and the impact our "living letters" have on a world that is watching.
