The Greatest Movement in History

Sermon Notes

Welcome to God’s at Work Here, where we explore what it truly means to be the church. This series helps us understand the important role we play in God's plan, whether you're new to the church or have been part of it for years. We’re reminded of the strong foundation we stand on and encouraged to continue growing in our faith and purpose as followers of Jesus.

Today's message focuses on our identity as the church—not as something extra in our lives but as the core of who we are. From 1 Peter 2:9-10, we learn that we are chosen by God to share His goodness with the world. The church is meant to shine God’s light in a dark world, and with the power of the Holy Spirit, we can make a real difference by living out our faith and showing love to others.
