Gretnalife's Sunday Gatherings

Peter had highs and lows—sometimes all at once! One of those times, he confesses Jesus as the Christ and then is rebuked by Jesus because of his lack of understanding.

Peter was an unlikely person to follow Jesus. He was rough, passionate, and ill-tempered; however, God chose him to be a leader in the church.

Through the resurrection of Christ, we have a living hope, that sustains and strengthens the believer in all circumstances.

When we repent of our sin, God does not delay providing us with the mercy and forgiveness we so desperately need.

During this season of preparation for Easter, we need to take seriously how seriously God takes sin

In the face of our sin and problems of life, we are helpless. But God pays attention to his creation, hears our cries, and has promised through Christ to deliver us.

Lent is a good time to reflect on the fact that this world, in its current state, is not our home.

Every day, in some way, we fail to keep God’s law. That isn’t because God didn’t make us correctly but rather because we are part of a fallen world.

There is no doubt that Christ left this earth with one main message: tell and teach others.

The church in Acts had to completely revolutionize their way of thinking and widen the scope to allow “all” in their gospel message.

Being neighborly means reaching beyond ourselves and into the lives of those who need help.

From the creation of humankind, God established a precedent for the dignity and value of all people: it is found in humanity’s unique connection to God.

If Jesus is the Main Thing, then there is an urgency to our faith.

While some Christians are content with pretending to have religion, those who seek after Christ will naturally have the purest religion there is.

Seeking the kingdom of Christ and his righteousness means seeking true righteousness and making Christ the King of our lives.

Keeping Christ as the main thing means we should not worry about our daily needs.

The best part about waiting is when the waiting is over and the big event has arrived. That’s when you celebrate!

We have an assurance of forgiveness in Jesus

Spiritual disciplines help us spend some time in self-reflection so that we can confess sin and repent.

The “begats” of Matthew can be laborious to read, but it is through this repetition, ordinariness, and human brokenness that God has chosen to enter into the world through Jesus.
