"God Most High, I will rejoice; I will celebrate and sing because of you."

Psalm 9:2 (CEV)


(As a matter of extra caution, we ask that you refrain from singing for the time being.  Feel free to hum along.  Thank you) 


==================================


Scripture | Philippians 3:12-16

Running toward the Goal

12 I have not yet reached my goal, and I am not perfect. But Christ has taken hold of me. So I keep on running and struggling to take hold of the prize. 13 My friends, I don’t feel that I have already arrived. But I forget what is behind, and I struggle for what is ahead. 14 I run toward the goal, so that I can win the prize of being called to heaven. This is the prize that God offers because of what Christ Jesus has done. 15 All of us who are mature should think in this same way. And if any of you think differently, God will make it clear to you. 16 But we must keep going in the direction that we are now headed.


R: This is the Word of the Lord.

A: Thanks be to God.


Sermon | "I Am not Perfect"


Benediction


Doxology - Voices Three

Praise God from whom all blessings flow.

Praise Him, all creatures here below.

Praise Him above ye heav’nly host.

Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

Amen
