How do we keep ourselves from drifting away from the gospel like the Ephesian church? By cultivating a personal thankfulness for God's amazing grace in our own lives. Paul models this for us in our passage this Sunday as a fuel for Timothy's good fight for the faith in his own life and in the church.
Have you ever been led astray? In our passage this Sunday, Jesus warns us about the false teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees. But what exactly is this false teaching? Why is it so destructive? Why does he compare it to bread baking? And finally, how should we guard ourselves against it and walk in truth?
Is your heart really in it? That's what this Sunday is all about. It's so easy for us to just go through the motions in our spiritual lives! This week we have the privilege to sit under our brother Daniel Mboweni's preaching. He will show us from Matthew 15 the eternal importance of devoting not just our religious habits, but our hearts to the Lord.
