Vision Builds
Once we grasp the preferred future God intends for us, what’s next? Guided by Nehemiah, we’ll learn next steps which, God willing, will help turn godly vision into reality.
Nehemiah 1:4,11 (GW) When I heard this, I sat down and cried. I mourned for days. I continued to fast and pray to the God of heaven, “…Lord, please pay attention to my prayer and to the prayers of all your other servants who want to worship your name. Please give me success today and make this man, King Artaxerxes, show me compassion.” I was cupbearer to the king at this time.
Nehemiah 2:1-5 (GW) In the month of Nisan, in Artaxerxes’ twentieth year as king, after some wine was brought for the king, I picked up the cup of wine and gave it to the king. I had never been sad in his presence before. The king asked me, “Why do you look so sad? You aren’t sick, are you? You must be troubled about something.” (I was really afraid.) “May the king live forever!” I said to the king. “Why shouldn’t I look sad when the city, the place where my ancestors are buried, is in ruins and its gates are burned down?” “What do you want?” the king asked me. So I prayed to the God of heaven, and I asked the king, “If it pleases Your Majesty, and you are willing to grant my request, let me go to Judah, to the city where my ancestors are buried, so that I can rebuild it.”

Ortholatreia
Christianity is NOT primarily about orthopraxy: right practice – doing what God says (Ephesians 2:8-9).
Christianity is NOT primarily about orthodoxy: right beliefs – believing what God says (James 2:19).
Christianity IS primarily about “ortholatreia:” right divine service – receiving what the Holy Trinity serves and then serving Him for the sake of His kingdom and for the sake of the world.
If you don’t have the right God and what He does for you right, everything else is forfeit. The Church’s three Creeds summarize what the Bible says about God, who He is and what He does. Today we’ll profess and explain the Athanasian Creed, particularly in light of Genesis 1 and Matthew 28:16-20, and experience God and His work.

A Little While
There are moments in life when ten minutes feel eternal… and seasons that disappear in an instant.
Peter writes to suffering Christians and says something almost offensive: “After you have suffered a little while…” A little while?
This Sunday we explore why those words only make sense if resurrection is true.
We’ll talk about:
• the two clocks people live by
• why suffering shrinks our vision
• the devil’s strategy of “compression”
• why Easter shattered the permanence of suffering
• and what it means that Christ Himself will restore His people
If you are exhausted, discouraged, anxious, or struggling to imagine joy again, this message is for you.
