Truths That Transform: “To Live Is Christ…to Die Is Gain”
August 20, 2023
PRAYER BEFORE WORSHIP
O God, our Creator, continue to build this household of faith into what You want us to be. O Christ, our Savior, lead us to do as You will. O Spirit, our Power, strengthen us for the work of the Kingdom, a worship and a service which is ours today as well as tomorrow. O Blessed Trinity, fill this place and these people with Your presence. For yours is the Power, and the Salvation, and the Creation, now and always. Amen.
IN TODAY’S WORSHIP
In our summer series of sermon messages, “Truths That Transform,” today we ask, “What are you living for?” Many people live their whole lives for empty pursuits. St. Paul was guided by God to say boldly, “For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain” Philippians 1:21. Today we will help you evaluate the purpose and direction of your life.
