Gospel of John: Do you believe in the need to be born again?, 9-01-24, Pastor Jodi Moore
September 1, 2024
THAT YOU MAY BELIEVE
So, what do you believe about Jesus? We all believe something about Him.
A.W. Tozer, a famous American pastor in the mid-1900s declared, “What comes into our minds when we think about Jesus is the most important thing about us.”
Whether we realize it or not, the reality is that our beliefs about Jesus impact every aspect of our lives, the inner peace within our souls and our future eternities.
At ACC for 15 weeks this fall (starting Aug. 18), we will journey through The Gospel of John while reflecting on a specific weekly question of belief to help us consider what we believe about Jesus. This is a great opportunity to wrestle with and renew your own belief about Jesus and to invite friends and family to do the same.
“But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”
John 20:31
