Serve the Homeless
The River Church partners with Interfaith Hospitality Network four times each year to care for local homeless families in need of food and lodging. An adult volunteer, or group of volunteers, is needed to prepare/compile an Italian meal to serve on a Friday night, spend the night at Our Lady of Sorrows church in Monroe with the families, and prepare and serve a hot breakfast before the families leave on Saturday morning. For more information, please contact Sarah at 513-401-3845 or haitigirl01@yahoo.com.

“What are you looking at that for?” -a question from God
Are you okay with God?
Justified: being made right with God
• Refers to salvation first of all
• Applying it to the question, “Am I okay with God right now?”
The Rules Route
Trying to be okay by following the right rules
• Where it gets you
The Relationship Route
That harsh word “severed from Christ.”
• How do you get reconnected?
Know what the rules are for
And what they’re not for
Trying to use rules for fuel
I shouldn’t do that! I shouldn’t even want to do it!
I have to whether I want to or not!
If I beat myself up badly enough, I’ll know better next time!
Connect to the True Power
Connect to Jesus Christ:
• Even with your temptations
• Even with your sin
Experience his grace
Experience the power it provides
“What are you looking at that for?” -a question from God
“Look at me instead.” -God’s answer
