Sermon:
“Learning to Love the Good”
Scripture:
1 Thessalonians 5:15-22

Today we conclude the fall sermon series, Curate Your Heart. Today is also Pledge Sunday, when we process as a congregation to the communion table to submit our promises of financial support to the church for the coming year.

See that none of you repays evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to all. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise the words of prophets, but test everything; hold fast to what is good; abstain from every form of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:15-22
