March 9th, 2025 - The Cruciform Life - Week 1

This sermon emphasizes the importance of breaking personal patterns during the season of Lent to foster spiritual growth and community. It introduces the concept of a "cruciform life," as presented in the book Living Greatness by John Bromhal, which involves understanding our vertical relationship with God through justification and our horizontal relationships with others through sanctification, highlighting that true transformation comes from recognizing God's love and forgiveness first, which then empowers us to serve and connect with others meaningfully. The sermon also encourages confession as a means of healing, both vertically to God for forgiveness and horizontally to others for communal support.
