    SERMON

    the Talk & the Walk: Talk the Talk

    Last Week: Walk the Walk

    Bringing the bright light to a dark world.

    • The WAY that we Talk changes PERCEPTION
    • Problems in JUSTICE (Cancel culture)
    • Problems with IDENTITY (any political movement)
    • Problems with TRUTH (relative truth vs objective)

    What does this have to do with RELIGION?

    • Our religion calls us to speak TRUTH in LOVE (Ephesians 4:15)
    1. Talk TO God (Ps 139) - Prayer
    • Not information, but conversation
    • Not transactional, but reactive
    • Goal = make God look good

    2. Talk about what God DOES (Amos 3:8-9, 11) - Testimony

    • Changing the narrative
      • COVID is about people, or about SAFETY
    • Addressing Conflict with Truth
      • Miracles
      • Evil
      • Suffering

    3. Talk to others ABOUT Jesus (Matt 4:17, 19; 1 Cor 1:17) - Invite

    • Our religion is about Jesus not about Jesus-followers
      • Story of anger toward Churches
    • Jesus takes US and uses us for his Kingdom


    AMEN
