Looking Forward to Sunday – September 7th

On Sunday, we will explore how the church functions as a big family, an amazing kingdom, and a beautiful temple, highlighting the joy and connection that come from living together as believers. By focusing on these aspects, we can see how our shared life in the church brings glory to God.

As you get ready for Sunday, take a moment to consider these questions:

• How might being an active participant in a church community deepen your understanding and experience of God’s presence?
• What unique contributions can you bring to support the church as both a member of God’s family and a vital part of His temple?
• In what ways can you prepare your heart to overcome any preconceived notions or past frustrations with church life, so that you can fully embrace the message of unity in Ephesians?

Prayer Prompt:
Lord, please help me come to church on Sunday with an open heart and mind, ready to learn how I can be a more active part of my church community. Give me wisdom to see my church as a family and a place where Your Spirit is alive and working.
