How do we live out the Gospel? How do we live it out in our hearts, in our community, and in the whole big wide world? During this series we will take a look at how the Gospel message of grace comes to us right where we are at, our hearts. We’ll look at how grace shapes and changes our lives, our families, and our communities as we live out Jesus’ message in acts of love and service in our world.
To help you really dig into this life changing grace, the Lenten Devotional is written to help you follow along with the theme of bringing the Gospel of God into our daily thoughts and prayers. If you did not receive a Lenten Devotional in the mail, you can still pick one up at Southwood Central .
During these weeks in worship you will see a colorful mural come to life. Volunteers from Southwood will be contributing to the worship experience by depicting visually this beautiful theme. We’ll be watching together as people from our community use paint and a blank canvas to depict God breathing life and hope into the world.
22 We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are. 23 For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. 24 Yet God, with undeserved kindness, declares that we are righteous. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins.
