Vision Sunday January 2024

This week is Vision Sunday. Steve unpacks what freedom looks like in the Christian life, and we celebrate that true freedom is found only in Jesus! There is prophetic encouragement for our church family that in 2024 God is speaking freedom over our church. Together we want to pray that we would take hold of this truth, to go deeper with God, in our own lives, across our church and for our city!

2 Corinthians 3:12–18 (Listen)

12 Since we have such a hope, we are very bold, 13 not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not gaze at the outcome of what was being brought to an end. 14 But their minds were hardened. For to this day, when they read the old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away. 15 Yes, to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their hearts. 16 But when one1 turns to the Lord, the veil is removed. 17 Now the Lord2 is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord,3 are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another.4 For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
