TEACHING SERIES: Changing The Conversation
SERMON TITLE: Changing The Conversation About Other People
BY: Tim Chilvers
DATE: Sunday 21 January 2024
BIBLE PASSAGES: Romans– Chapter 12, verses 14-21
EXCERPT:
We live in a tribal world, when it is easy to live in our echo chambers. We dismiss people who don’t agree with us, and only need to embrace those who do. And, in our connected world, we find a steady stream of people who agree with us! But, what if the good news of Jesus makes us see people differently? What if we bless those who are against us, and do good to our enemies? What if we try and live honourably and at peace with everyone? That would change the world!
‘The world is to look at the people of God and exclaim “So that is the gospel? I see it now!”’
(Darrel Guder)
‘An inflated estimation of human nature capsizes love for one’s neighbour’
(David Zahl)
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.
