This Week | February 7 – 13, 2025

February 9 | Romans – Grasping The Gospel, Romans 12:3-8, Part 46: Gifted But Not Alone – Pastor Mark Hovermale

Synopsis: Spiritual gifts and their purpose can be misunderstood in today’s world. Romans 12:3-8 speaks to where spiritual gifts come from, their purpose and need in using them as well as some
examples of spiritual gifts. We all have different roles and gifts within the church yet we are unified as the body of Christ. Let us see the importance of our gifting and use our spiritual gifts so we may serve the Body of Christ and make Him known.

Fighter Verse: Romans 12:4-5 – For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.

Core Ministries – Weekly Update

Jesus would have lots of run-ins with the Jewish religious leaders, but his late night encounter with Nicodemus was perhaps the sincerest of them all. The message? Nicodemus was confused – Jesus taught Nicodemus about eternal life – We all need new life through Jesus!
