Sermon Title: “Where He Leads Me, I Will Follow”

Text: Hebrews 12:1-2 (NRSVUE)

Focus: The writer of Hebrews uses the imagery of a marathon in the Greek Olympic Games to urge believers to run the entire race set before them with endurance. Jesus already ran the race of faith. As we run, we are following him, so we must fix our eyes on Jesus.

Sermon Title: “Build Others Up”

Text: Romans 14:17-19

Focus: In his letter to the Romans, Paul acknowledges the difficulty that Christians were having in uplifting each other. They fought over differences about diet and sacred days. Paul tells us that God’s kingdom is about righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.” Diving over lesser issues doesn’t lift each other up rather it causes others to stumble.

Sermon Title: “The World is Watching”

Focus: In his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus uses the imagery of salt to highlight the importance of preserving the goodness and truth of our world, and in doing so, the disciples reflect God’s light into the world.

Sermon Series Title: “Influencers”

Dates: 11/9/25-11/23/25

Summary: Influencers are all over social media these days – when we see a person we admire sharing their favorite products, we find ourselves embracing their interests, their hopes and sometimes their lifestyles. This isn’t really a new idea, though. Jesus called us to use our influence to be his ambassadors, to be his light in a dark world. Jesus understood that people are watching us and can be inspired by us to change the world.
