Check out what's going on at Second Pres!
Read along with Leviticus 19:1-2, 9-18 here.
Sermon excerpt:
Right now you’re probably thinking: “Alright, I’m with you so far—God is holy and we are not, but since we’re his people, God calls us to be holy, and we do that by being different from the unbelievers around us. But how on earth do we do THAT?”
Everyone in this room could probably give a different answer to that question. And I’m pretty sure you’d all be right. But I want to send you home with one, simple answer you can practice all week long.
The reading from 1 Corinthians says in verse 19 “for the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.” Indeed, “God’s foolishness is wiser than human wisdom, and God’s weakness is stronger than human strength” (1:25). God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, what is weak to shame the strong (1:26).
How should you be different from the un-believers and non-believers around you?
Be a fool.
