The Calling

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been building a foundation for what it means to be part of the Church and to follow Jesus together. In our first session, we talked about belonging—that God brings us into His family and gives us a place to belong before we ever do anything to earn it. Then we talked about the good news—that we are saved by grace through faith, not by what we do, but by what Christ has done for us. In our third session, we looked at worship, and how when Christians gather, God meets with us, speaks to us, provides for us, and sends us out. And last time, we talked about the Christian life—how our identity in Christ gives shape and direction to the way we live, love, and relate to others.

So up to this point, we’ve been asking questions like: Who am I in Christ? What do I believe? How does that shape my life?
