Abraham: The Life of Faith

Today, we take a look at an often-overlooked passage in the book of Romans—Chapter 16 which contain a long list of greetings that the Apostle Paul sends to his fellow believers in Rome. At first glance, this chapter might seem like a mere formality, a collection of names we can scarcely pronounce, with little relevance to our lives today. But as we dig deeper, we discover that this passage offers us profound insights into the beauty of Christian community, the diversity of God’s people, and the call to love, serve, and rightly regard one another as members of Christ’s body.



Through Paul’s sincere greetings, we catch a glimpse of the early church—a family of believers united not by social status, race, or background, but by their shared hope in Jesus Christ. These greetings remind us that the church is made up of real people with real struggles, strengths, and stories, just like us. They also challenge us to reflect on how we live out our faith within our own church family.



In this chapter Romans we find three important ideas: the call to love one another, the call to see each other as God sees us, and the call to faithfully serve in Christ’s church. We’ll also be reminded of the ultimate hope we have as Christians—that our names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.



So whether you’re new to faith or have walked with Christ for years, this sermon is for you. It’s a powerful reminder of what it means to belong to God’s family and how we are called to live as His people.

Paul’s Priorities in Ministry

Today we celebrate the ordination of James and Chet to the office of deacon here at Mt. Rose Church. This significant moment in our church’s life reminds us of the vital role that deacons play in our community. As outlined in Acts 6, the early church faced challenges that required dedicated individuals to serve the needs of the congregation. James and Chet have been chosen for their outstanding character, wisdom, and commitment to Christ, and we are grateful for their willingness to serve.



The office of deacon is not merely an administrative role; it is a spiritual ministry that reflects the compassion and love of Jesus Christ. Deacons are called to meet the physical and material needs of our community, ensuring that no one is left in want. Their service is a testament to the love of Christ, demonstrating that we care for one another not just in spirit but also in our daily lives.



As we reflect on the words from Psalm 145, we are reminded of God’s greatness and His unwavering goodness. Just as the Lord provides for all His creation, we too are called to extend that same care and compassion to those around us.



As we move forward, let us embody the spirit of generosity and compassion that characterized the early church. Whether through volunteering, sharing resources, or simply offering a listening ear, every act of kindness contributes to the witness of Christ’s love in our world.

Ministry of Mercy

Romans 15:14-21



The church’s ministry is centered on faithfulness to God’s will, involving three key aspects: proclamation, worship, and outreach. Through proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ, engaging in worship by offering sanctified souls to God, and reaching out to the lost, the church fulfills its God-given purpose. Success is measured not by worldly standards but by faithfulness in carrying out these ministries.
