Dear CrossPointe,
If you missed Dr. Crawford Loritts last Sunday, I highly encourage you to listen to his sermon here. In a our current climate of racial, cultural, and political strife, it was a very helpful message on how the gospel calls Christians to a life of reconciliation. May the Lord help us be a light in this area for our broken world.
This Sunday we’ll look at 1 Timothy 5:1–16 and some practical instructions on how Christians in a local church are to care for one another. We’ll also celebrate as we see two folks proclaim the gospel through baptism. Looking forward to seeing you all!
Grace and peace,
Brad
