“One More”
1 Timothy 2:1-4
I was reading through my news app the other day and was overcome with a burden for the world. Friends, the world is lost! Everywhere we look the repercussions of sin and death are all around. We see division and strife, murder and hatred, nations warring against other nations. While this has always been the way of the world, I often hear the question posed, “Is this what God desires?” As we’ve been working through our OGC Vision and Values in our series, “Becoming a Reflection of God’s Truth,” we’ve unpacked what it looks like for a follower of Jesus to reflect the glory of God from a place of deep intimacy. As we rejoin this series, we find the apostle Paul writing to his protege, Timothy, who is the pastor of the church in Ephesus–and it is in here that Paul calls Timothy and us to the very heart of God and what He desires for the world. The question we need to answer is this; do I desire the same thing as God? I look forward to worshipping Jesus with you all.
