the sermon preached by Pastor Tommy Dove at the Grace Place on Sunday, January

“The Church’s Jubilee” by C. W. Naylor
Scripture: (Read the word together – use different
readers, different versions, just read it)
Proverbs 22:28 “Do not move an ancient boundary stone set
up by your ancestors.”
Lesson: (Delve deeper into the Word and into the sermon
using open-ended questions)
Ancient stone walls
are fascinating structures built by the hands of stonemasons who were half
engineers and half artisans. In our
fast-paced, instant society, we are in awe of anything that remains intact for
hundreds of years. Our faith foundation
is built on timeless truths.
What is the church?
What does it mean that the church is one body?What foundation is the church built upon?
Why does it matter that God’s Word is truth?
An old hymn says, “We serve a living Savior; He’s in the world today.”
Why does that set us apart from other religions?
Why are we not waiting for a future kingdom?
How are we different than the world?
What are you doing that has eternal ramifications?
Prayer: (Share each other’s burdens, become a community
of believers)
