We’re beginning a sermon series today called “The Reason for God.” This series is somewhat based on a NY Times bestselling book of the same title, written by author and pastor Tim Keller. I say the sermons are somewhat based on the book only because we will seek to answer the same questions which form the heart of each chapter of the book. Our approach will be to do that from passages of Scripture.
Today our subject is, “Can Christianity be right if it is exclusive?” Many people say, “There are many ways to find God so Christianity is just one of many options and it is wrong, arrogant and divisive for Christians to claim that Jesus is the only way.” Well, “How do you answer such a criticism?” We will seek to grow in our ability to do so with gentleness, clarity and wisdom.
Incidentally, the Small Groups which officially begin this week will also follow complimentary studies of these same questions. Between our 2Ways Evangelism Studies on Sunday morning (10:15-10:50), our Sermon Series and our Small Group Studies, this is a great season for us to grow in our ability to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Please be in constant prayer towards that end, (Matthew 28:18-20)
Will (for the pastors)
