I had the privilege of preaching God’s Word this morning in our church’s worship service, filling in for our pastor-teacher who’s taking a family vacation.  It’s really a terrific honor to be a messenger of God’s Word to His people, and I believe God was gracious and enabled me to deliver His Word with clarity and conviction.

My primary text was Philippians 1:27-28.  The main thrust of the message was that the church must be committed to living worthy of the gospel.  The marks of such a commitment are pursuing unity by the power of the gospel, upholding the centrality and truth of the gospel, and sustaining a clear and courageous witness of the gospel to the lost.
