Intentionally Act

  • Reread 1 Corinthians 15:50-58. How have you been encouraged through studying this passage? How have you been convicted?

  • How could you use this passage in your witness for Christ? Take steps to communicate the Gospel to unbelievers around you.
  • Click the links below to find the lyrics and recordings of the songs planned for our gathering this Sunday; practice the songs, study the lyrics and sing together.
