North Platte Berean Church
You Are His Masterpiece
Pastor Bryan Clark of Lincoln Berean took this past weekend to share further insights with our body from his book "God's Not Like That." Expounding on its truths, he shared about God's design for the family in truthfully reflecting the character of God. He encouraged and challenged us in ways that we can practically pass the truth of God on to the next generation. In this Sunday message, Bryan will be concluding his time with us by unpacking Ephesians 2:1-10 as he declares the message that, through Christ, we are God's Masterpiece!

Baptism is a public witness of an internal reality, that the person has passed from death to life by trusting Jesus alone for salvation. Today we’re baptizing: Mira White by Tara Kautz (Mentor) and Tobi Hardin (friend) and Bobby Hauser by Blair Dannatt and Bruce Dodson (friends).

Next Week's Sermon
As we've studied Romans, we've undestood Gospel Foundations (chapters 1-4), delighted in Gospel Fruit (chapters 5-8), and been comforted in Gospel Faithfulness (chapters 9-11). Before we enter the final movement of Romans (Gospel Flourishing), however, we'll explore how Paul ends his section on Gospel Faithfulness as all the theology he's espoused now culminates in doxology - praise to our Great God and King!
