Midweek Update: June 21, 2023

Dear Faith Community Church Family,

Do you ever sense that there are multiple versions of “reality” in our culture? Let me explain what I mean. News outlets, the media, the places we shop, the restaurants where we eat, and even our friends and colleagues will bombard us with messages that say things like, “Follow your truth,” or, “We all know that the only viable view of gender and sexuality is [fill in the blank].” As Christians, we affirm that by virtue of being the Creator, God is the one who determines reality. He is the “really real.” God also defines and distinguishes right from wrong. Truth and morality are both rooted in the character and actions of God, who reveals himself through his Son and the Scriptures. This Sunday we take a fresh look at reality from God’s perspective. The sermon passage for Sunday is Hebrews 8:1-13.
