On Sundays we have one service at 10:00 AM in the main sanctuary. Additionally, you can watch our ONLINE LIVE-STREAM beginning at 10 AM and anytime thereafter if you prefer to watch from home on your TV or streaming device.

Pastor Scott Borman – Week 2

Finding Living Hope in An Upside-Down World

1. Think!

Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. 1 Peter 1:13

for he is the kind of person who is always thinking about the cost. “Eat and drink,” he says to you, but his heart is not with you. If you walk in the darkness in your mind, you walk in the darkness in real life
Proverbs 23:7

The Lord said, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free”
John 8:31-32,

“If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above” Col 3:1-2,

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Phil. 4:8


2. ACT!

14 As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. 15 But just as he who called you is holy,

so be holy in all you do; 16 for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:14-16

Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out. Proverbs 10:9

3. Choose!

Since you call on a Father who judges each person’s work impartially, live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear. 18 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. 20 He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. 21 Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God. 1 Peter 1:17-20

Therefore, judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God. 1 Corinthians 4:5

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Proverbs 4:23

4. Grow!
Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind. 2 Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, 3 now that you have tasted that the Lord is good. 1 Peter 2:1-3

Be mindful of what you have tasted.

Your statutes are my delight. Ps. 119:24

Be careful to avoid junk-food.
Be faithful to feed on the truth.

“From the very beginning God decided that those who came to him—and all along he knew who would—should become like his Son” Romans 8:29 TLB
