YOUR PASTORS RECOMMEND THAT YOU LISTEN TO ALL FOUR MESSAGES
The pastoral team came home from the Sovereign Grace Churches Pastors Conference with refreshed souls, as they were filled with a steady diet of Christ exalting singing and preaching.
While the link to all the messages can be found here, listed below are a few impactful sound bites from each of the messages.
Christ Preeminent by Jeff Purswell (Col. 1:15-20)
"Only in the person of Christ can God be truly known and genuinely encountered"
"Christ is pre-eminent. Yes, there are powers that work against Him, but there are no rivals to Him!"
"If your Gospel centrality does not magnify Christ above all things, then the Gospel is not your center"
"The most effective remedy against discouragement is a high Christology (a high view of Christ)"
"The very heartbeat of our assurance is the pre-eminence of Christ"
The Steadfast Savior and His Beloved Servants by Jon Payne (2 Tim. 4:9-18)
"Our steadfast Savior can make a jail more beautiful than a palace; the reproaches of Christ far greater than the riches of Egypt" - Bunyan
"Suffering for the sake of Christ creates a bond with other believers in your church and across salvation history" - Kostenberger
Our Prowling Adversary by CJ Mahaney (1 Pet. 5:8-9)
"The most sinister thoughts Satan inserts into our minds are not enticements to sin, but doubts and suspicions about God"
"When we resist Satan by remaining firm in Christ, Satan will flee - not because he is afraid of us, but because he is terrified of the one our faith looks to - Jesus Christ!
"By becoming a Christian, you walked into a war. Every day you awake, you should remember that there is a vicious dark battle being waged over your soul. Satan is busy" - Christopher Ash
"(In reference to the fact that Satan exists and is active) "It does not do to leave a live dragon out of your calculations if you live near him" - Tolkien
The Grace of Partnership by Jared Mellinger (2 Cor. 8:1-23)
"Partnership in the Gospel is centrally connected to progress in the Gospel" - Schnabel
"Individually, one church can accomplish little. But together, we become a weapon terrible to behold arrayed against the foes of God"
