Freedom in Christ—by Chris Ogbonnaya
March 6, 2023
Sermon summary:
Who are the freest people in the world? Those who are free from the world.
Galatians 5: 1 For freedom Christ has set us free—from the circumstances of life, position, title, etc. Don't live as a captive of the world. Live as people who are free to love others and do good to all.

Following Jesus comes with the cost of persecution and rejection. If we face none, it may reveal compromise or conformity to the world. Are we influencing culture—or being influenced by it? True faith shares Christ boldly, just as the early disciples did. Let’s trust God with courage and live boldly for the One we serve.
Giving is a powerful expression of worship and trust in God. Though He doesn’t need our money, our generosity reflects the posture of our hearts. We honour God by giving from our best, without strings attached, and keeping the promises we've made. Giving is to God—not to man—and it supports the church as a place of spiritual growth for our families and future generations.
We enjoyed a fantastic time of praise and worship and had a communion message by Brendan Devine (it starts at 1:11 mins). If you missed it, you can watch it on our YouTube channel and be uplifted.
