1 John 1-2:6
Reforming the Church

In Pastor John's latest message, he talks about the importance of relationships and how the world often softens the struggles we face in cultivating meaningful ones. He emphasizes that our most important relationships are often found within our church community. Pastor John takes us back to the past, reflecting on historical moments of church reformation, including Martin Luther's 95 Theses, which highlighted the need for grace. At the heart of today's Church and individual believers must be the five solas: Scripture alone, grace alone, Christ alone, faith alone, and to the glory of God alone. Pastor John challenges us to look within ourselves and ensure our relationship with Christ is genuine, moving beyond the motions of religion to a truly personal connection with Jesus. The core message is one of self-examination, reforming our spiritual lives to focus on genuine relationships with Christ and our church family.
