Romans 1:1-8,16-17: Obedience of Faith (Hope for the City)

Welcome to the 1st sermon in our series on how God is working in our city. (1 of 4)

God intends The Church to be a contrast society. It is to show a watching world how to do community, to be the place where the divisions that are present in the culture are absent. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote “There was a time when the church was very powerful – in the time when the early Christians rejoiced at being deemed worthy to suffer for what they believed. In those days the church was not merely a thermometer that recorded the ideas and principles of popular opinion; it was a thermostat that transformed the mores of society.” Join us as some guest speakers share how God is still working powerfully in people and guiding them to change our community.
