Whether you are a lifelong member or a newcomer, when you come through the doors of Good Shepherd Church our prayer is that you are made to feel like family. As forgiven people, living in the grace of God, we want more and more people to experience the joy and freedom that can only be found in Jesus Christ. We hope to see you this Sunday!
As we get into the second half of Ephesians, chapter 4, Paul calls us to put off the old and put on the new. Unfortunately, this is not always easy. As we daily walk in the newness of who we are in Christ, there is always a pull to walk in our old ways. Join us as we rejoice in the fact that not only does Jesus make us new; he gives us the power to walk in new ways.
This week Ben and Sarah Hosch, missionaries in Taiwan, will be sharing about their ministry. We will join together for Intergenerational Sunday School where Ben and Sarah will show us how they reach out to their neighbors with the Gospel in local parks. Then, during the Worship Service, Ben will be preaching from God's Word.
This Sunday, as we get into Ephesians chapter 4, we turn a corner in the letter. Paul's focus pivots from the doctrinal to the practical. He begins to answer the question, "Now what?". Up until this point in Ephesians, Paul has been proclaiming who we are in Christ how we became the Church. From this point on, he will be instructing us in what the Church is called to do and what the Church is supposed to look like.
