Super Bowl | Celebrating What Endures
Shared on: Jan 30, 2017
Along with the people we live and work with each day, we need a hope that lasts. We all need examples of life-giving character that can point us to where true life resides. We live, however, in an entitled, instant-gratification, culture that rewards, and even celebrates, as the Apostle Paul describes, the sin nature and its baseness (Gal. 5:16-21). Within this environment, the Spirit desires to shape, train, and develop Christ followers into a people of true character and as true champions of His grace and truth. How do we endure as life-giving people of Christ’s hope in a world that’s unfair and seems in many ways to be set against us?
