Psalm 46; John 8:31-36; Jeremiah 31:31-34 | In the midst of the Reformation, much of Luther’s world was shaking and trembling. Still today, when we look at the world around us, the church, and even our lives, we may feel unsettled. And yet, God’s Word promises we have something to hang onto – God as our refuge – and we have something to dwell in as our truth and freedom – Jesus Christ. Through Christ, we trust that we have been made new, we have been re-formed by grace, and now we are invited to continue in God’s Word as living agents of God’s re-formation of all things. So join us this weekend, as we return to Christ as our Word, seeking freedom and reformation, and as we allow God to shape us for the ongoing reforming work of his kingdom.
