Free at last, free at last, the words of the old slave song that rang out in Martin Luther King’s speech sound like the shout of the apostle Paul after three chapters of the bleakest diagnosis of humanity. This sermon pauses to celebrate and unpacks the new identity God gives in Christ: peace with God, reconciliation, grace, hope and love (Romans 5). There is also an honest word about why faith does not mean the end of hardship, and where the strength to face it comes from. Listen and see which of these statements about yourself you most need to hear today.
Grateful for Our New Identity in Christ
You've Got a Message
We live in a world filled with news, most of which adds nothing positive to our lives. It only stirs up anxiety and robs us of hope. Other news is fake news, which presents a distorted picture of reality and causes confusion. That is why we all need to hear this one true message about who we are, what our problem is, and what the solution is. In his Letter to the Romans, the Apostle Paul has just such a message for us and answers our most important questions. This letter is the most complete explanation of the gospel-that is, the good news from God Himself.
