TEACHING SERIES: This Little Light of Mine
SERMON TITLE: Where to Look?
BY: Sarah Auger
DATE: Sunday 28th May 2023
‘BIBLE PASSAGES: Revelation | Chapter 1 | Verses 1-20
EXCERPT:
When you sit in the dark for long enough, your eyes become accustomed to it. It doesn’t seem so dark anymore. Perhaps the same is true for our society? Have we become so accustomed to one way of life that we get used to it? For the first readers of the book of Revelation, they faced a real danger – in the middle of opposition, the temptation to settle down to a life of comfort in the Roman Empire was so attractive. And yet, the light of Christ shines like a lighthouse – brightly revealing the darkness and guiding to safety. What would it look like for followers of Jesus to then shine this light brightly, like lampshades in a dark world?
Welcome:
What's true of Riverside Church when we meet together in-person is still true of us online. We are on a journey together to help people get to know Jesus and grow as his followers across Birmingham and beyond. Riverside is a church made up of people from a diversity of backgrounds and experiences all with one thing in common; our discovery of God and His amazing love. We hope you will feel at home among us and that you will find our weekly services, events and groups welcoming and relevant to your life.
