Sabbath. Study. Serve.

 Sabbath, Study, Serve 

Taking the Sermon Into Our Week 


Scripture of the Week: Psalm 84 and Romans 6: 1-11


From the Sermon:

Paul is trying to remind the Christians in Rome about their ___________.


Your old self - that self before you knew the love of Christ - that self is ______.


For Paul baptism is like a new ___________ - a new path that God has created to bring us out of captivity to sin and into the promised land of new life in Christ.


To renounce the spiritual forces of _________, reject the __________ of this world, and repent of our sin.


Accept the freedom and power God gives us to resist__________________________________ in whatever forms they present themselves.


What we do, our actions, those can only flow from who we ______.




Reflection Questions:

What are we saved for?


When you tell your story where do you begin and why?



Prayer:

Lord Jesus, help us to live into the fullness of our baptism and the true freedom it brings. Free us to serve you, we pray. Amen.
