Excellent Behavior Part 1

Ben Foust

1 Peter 2:11-17

What does the way you live your life communicate to the "watching world?" Do your actions refute negative misconceptions about Christians or do they confirm them?

New Person, New Mission

Phil Franck

2 Corinthians 5:17-21

This passage highlights all the work God did to make us a new person in Christ. It was His gift to us, not of our own effort. He reconciled us to Him by making Jesus a sin offering in our stead so that we could have right standing with God. And not only does He make us a new person but he gives us a new purpose to share the message of reconciliation with a lost world. He makes us ambassadors so He can make His appeal through us. \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
