PREACHING AT RESERVOIR
Redeemed to Rebuild
Pastor Jonathan Shradar preaches on Isaiah 62:8-63:14. The church lives as a redemptive influence in a world of need.
Sermon notes.
Small group questions:
Why are we hesitant to talk of the day of vengeance?
Why would Jesus redeem anyone? How can we be sure that we are part of the redeemed?
What types of “rebuilding” does the Lord have you doing and how can we support you in it as a group?
What does recounting the redemption of Jesus look like in our community? Are there things we can do to put the truth before us more?
Partnership in the Gospel
Ryan TerMorshuizen from Common Ground in Cape Town, SA preaches from Philippians 1 on partnership in the gospel.
What About Jesus?
Pastor Jonathan Shradar preaches on Isaiah 61:1-62:7. The finished work of Jesus makes his church into a relentless force for revival.
Sermon notes.
Small group questions:
Why would Jesus, as described in Isaiah 61, be offensive to anyone?
How is it that all that he says of his people is applied to us as believers? How does this increase our faith in him?
What does it mean for the church, each of us as individuals and a collective family, to be agents of renewal and restoration? Where are our “broken cities?”
How does the relentlessness of Jesus inspire our own redefined lives and passions?
What will it mean and look like for us to persist relentlessly for revival as described in Isaiah 62:7?
