Experiencing Jesus—by Mark Baumhardt
February 2, 2025
Sermon recap:
There is a difference between knowing and experiencing Jesus (he is a person, not a doctrine). He is the lens of God's heart (through the battle lens, the journey in finding him, and the relational lens). We can't see the deep roots of Jesus's love but they are there. Knowledge comes from experieincing Jesus's love.
If you missed the lesson by Mark Baumhardt, one of the original members of the mission team to Johannesburg, then you can watch it on our YouTube channel. The recording is in two parts. This is the second one.
The wilderness is a time of testing and growth, revealing God's purpose, preparing us for more, and calling us to seek Him deeply and intentionally.
Sermon recap:
True joy comes from real community, shared purpose, and love. Resist isolation, love deeply, serve humbly, and stay devoted to one another in unity.
