Last night I had the privilege to preach my first ‘proper’ sermon… when I say ‘proper’ I mean at a main church service – the 8am communions with a congregation of 10 is a little bit different. I got to speak on 1 Corinthians 9, but choose to just look at verses 19-27. I put a shirt on for the occasion, but kept my un-ironed jeans and dirty trainers on… it’s all about becoming all things to all men… to the people who wear scruffy jeans I became like one who wears scruffy jeans!
I titled the sermon ‘Freed to Serve’… but have since changed it to ‘Serve/Win, Run/Win’… because I can.
You can listen to the audio here…
…and my preaching notes – maybe Josh Harris could add it to his preachers notes series… maybe not
Two points:
- Serve to Win
- Run to Win
Q: How do we live as Christians in Brighton & Hove?
A: We run, and we do everything we can to win others on the way!
