NCCF Church Sharing - July 10, 2016
Speaker: Church Title: NCCF Church Sharing Date: 07-10-2016 Our Goal as Christians is this: To be an exact reflection of Jesus, the Son of God (Romans 8:29) We do this individually by growing in purity in our personal lives (1 John 3:2-3) We do this corporately by becoming fully functioning members of a local Church (Ephesians 4:11-16)
Summary
The speaker discusses that God allows us to experience brokenness for several reasons, including confronting pride, which is warned against as it precedes a fall. Brokenness also serves to strengthen us so we can better serve others, echoing Jesus' command to Peter to tend the sheep. Ultimately, this process leads to restoration, reminding us that God is near to the brokenhearted and uses brokenness to build us up to resemble Jesus.
