March 31, 2024
Sermon recap:
Hesed, means "unexpected loving kindness" (one of 170 English words used to try and describe it).It applies to everyone. Jesus came to show us "hesed" in the flesh. God wants us to show hesed in a world that doesn't expect it. Can people see "hesed" in me?

Psalm 23 paints God as our shepherd—guiding, providing, and protecting. In Jesus, the Good Shepherd, we find the same care. Choose godly community over isolation, grow through mentorship, and live to reflect his love in a world that needs it daily, faithfully.
Jesus, the Bread of Life, meets our deepest needs. We chase power, comfort, and distractions, yet still feel empty. True satisfaction is found in him alone. Feed your soul daily with God’s Word before anything else, and let him be your centre.
Living like Jesus means denying self, sharing the gospel in every season, trusting God in hardship, and reaching the lost with grace, courage, and faith.
