Sermon Series

Be Like Christ

For the month of September, we will explore how, through imitating Christ, we can live a richer, more centered, and faithful life filled with purpose and meaning.

One of the greatest devotional works in the history of Christendom, “The Imitation of Christ”, written by Thomas a Kempis (c. 1418) challenges us to live out Paul’s admonition in 1 Corinthians 11:1. He paints a beautiful, if challenging, portrait of a heart filled with love, obedience, and simplicity.

Thomas largely focuses on an interior spiritual pattern, but Jesus was fully human and so we should imitate Christ with the fullness of ourselves. We will explore how to do so in successive weeks in
mind,
body,
spirit,
so that we experience a fully new life.

Come to worship this September and we can learn together how through humility, service, and love we can grow closer to our Lord.
