Intentionally Act
- How should the death and atonement of Jesus impact the way you live on a daily basis?
- Consider the weight of what Jesus accomplished and finished on the cross. How does this change the way you think about your standing before God? Where should your confidence be?
- How does Jesus’ example in John 19:25-27 convict you?
- Consider the death of Christ. Why did he die? For what purpose? For who? What did he accomplish in his death? How should you live in light of this?
- Pray that eyes would be opened to see personal need for the death of Christ as an atoning sacrifice.
- Pray that we would daily walk in a manner worthy of the truth of the gospel as a congregation. Pray that we would be fervent to share the good news of Jesus’ atoning death with others.
- 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.
