Feb 16th-23rd
This Past Sunday…
We are continuing our journey through Paul’s letter to the Romans, a profound and foundational exploration of the gospel.
We start with “The Gospel: Right With God” (Romans 1–4), where Paul confronts our need for salvation and reveals how the gospel meets that need. Through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, God provides the righteousness we could never achieve on our own. These chapters lay the groundwork for understanding justification by faith and the transformative grace of God.
Application Questions:
What truths about God have I suppressed or ignored in my own life?
What created things am I tempted to worship instead of the Creator?
Do I excuse or celebrate sins in my life that God calls me to repent of?
How does the power of the gospel free me from both sin and self-righteousness?
Announcements
The purpose of these evenings is to gather as a gospel family for dinner and discipleship. Practically, we’ll be sharing a family meal together, followed by a time of teaching, table discussion, and prayer.
We plan to focus on topics during Equip Nights that will help us grow in discipleship and worship of Jesus, as we seek to “equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ” (Eph. 4:12).

What: Dinner and discussion. Topic: Discipleship
When: 02/23 5:30PM-7:00PM
