16. The Banns are Moving: Help them move and paint!

18. Dear Refuge of My Weary Soul Dear refuge of my weary soul, On Thee, when sorrows rise; On Thee, when waves of trouble roll, My fainting hope relies.

19. On Thee I cast each rising grief, For Thou alone canst heal. Thy Word can bring a sweet relief For every pain I feel; this pain I feel.

20. But oh! When gloomy doubts prevail, I fear to call Thee mine. The springs of comfort seem to fail, and all my hopes decline.

21. Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust. And still my soul shall cleave to Thee Though prostrate in the dust; in the dust.

22. Hast Thou not bid me seek Thy face, and shall I seek in vain? And can the ear of sovereign grace Be deaf when I complain?

23. No still the ear of sovereign grace attends the mourner’s prayer. Oh, may I ever find access To breathe my sorrows there.

24. Thy mercy seat is open still. Here let my soul retreat. With humble hope attend Thy will And wait beneath Thy feet. (x2) Words: Anne Steele (1791) Arr: Riverside Worship Project, Dan Emerson CCLI: 11148322

26. Depth of Mercy Depth of mercy can there be Mercy still reserved for me? Can my God His wrath forbear Me the chief of sinners spare?

27. Lord, incline me to repent, Let me now my fall lament; Deeply my revolt deplore; Weep, believe, and sin no more.

28. I have long withstood His grace; Long provoked Him to His face; Would not harken to His calls; Grieved Him by a thousand falls.

29. Lord, incline me to repent, Let me now my fall lament; Deeply my revolt deplore; Weep, believe, and sin no more. (x2)

30. Still for me the Savior stands, Shows His wounds, and spreads His hands. God is love, I know, I feel. Jesus weeps and loves me still.

31. Lord, incline me to repent, Let me now my fall lament; Deeply my revolt deplore; Weep, believe, and sin no more. (x2) Words: Charles Wesley Music: Michael Devereaux CCLI: 11148322

33. WHAT WE BUILD AND HOW WE BUILD MATTERS PART 1 http://bible.com/e/17xO

34. Our Vision: Revolutionizing our city by helping people encounter Jesus in a life-changing way, to the glory of God.

35. Our Mission: Declaring the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the fullness of its saving, sanctifying, and satisfying power.

37. What the Gospel is not: • The gospel is not behavior modification, becoming a better person or learning to become more moral. • It is not taking the life of Jesus as a model way to live or transforming/redeeming the secular realm. • It is not living highly communal lives with others and sharing generously in communities who practice the way of Jesus in local culture.

39. What the Gospel is: In short, the Gospel is the life-altering news that Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, became man, lived a sinless life under the Law, died for sinners and rose again to reconcile them to himself, eternally victorious over every enemy that stood between God and man. Now, because of this redemptive work, there is nothing that separates those who believe from their Creator and all the benefits that He promises in him.

40. D.A. Carson says the gospel centers "upon Jesus Christ and what God has done through him. The essential points of the gospel are Jesus Christ's status as the Son of God, his genuine humanity, his death for our sins, his burial, resurrection, subsequent appearances, and future coming in judgment. That no one is justified but in the gracious work of Jesus Christ in his death and resurrection. It is not merely a recital of theological truths and historical events; rather, it relates these truths and events to situations of every individual believer."

42. 1 Peter 2:1-12: So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.

43. 4As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5 you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For it stands in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,    a cornerstone chosen and precious,and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”

44. 7 So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe, “The stone that the builders rejected    has become the cornerstone,” 8 and “A stone of stumbling,    and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.

45. 9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

46. 11 Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul.  12 Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

47. 1 Peter 2:1-12: So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.

48. 4As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5 you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For it stands in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,    a cornerstone chosen and precious,and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”

49. 7 So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe, “The stone that the builders rejected    has become the cornerstone,” 8 and “A stone of stumbling,    and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.

50. 9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
