Proclaim - King | Week 3

Send us Fan MailWandering through the bustling streets of London and the colorful avenues of Thailand, I was struck by the palpable reverence for monarchy - a stark contrast to the often-casual regard for leadership back home. In our latest conversation, "Proclaim" we take a closer look at this phenomenon and reflect on the ultimate kingship that shapes our spiritual journey - that of Jesus. Venturing beyond the spectacle of royal weddings and yellow-garbed Mondays, we explore the significance of unwavering faith and what it means to stand firm in our convictions, as exemplified by the biblical account of three Hebrew children.As someone who recited the Pledge of Allegiance with hand over heart, I understand the importance of devotion to one's country. But what does it mean to pledge allegiance to a higher power? We examine this question through the lens of Matthew 4:17 and the Shema, contemplating the theocratic rule where God's sovereignty eclipses earthly leadership. The discussion unveils the complexity of embodying Christ's teachings in a society that may not always embrace them, and the profound responsibility we hold as representatives of God's kingdom.In the kingdom of God, faith and obedience unlock a transformative power akin to the growth of a mustard seed into a mighty tree. This episode delves into the teachings of the Apostle Paul to the Corinthians, underscoring that our actions must resonate with the divine authority we've been graced with. As we wrap up the conversation, we reflect on our collective mission at Cornerstone to foster a community grounded in service, spiritual growth, and the embodiment of love in all our endeavors. Join us as we embrace another Sunday of navigating life's challenges with the strength and support of our faith.CCC Social linksCornerstonehttps://www.cornerstoneaz.org/Follow Jesushttps://www.cornerstoneaz.org/follow-jesusLife Groups https://www.cornerstoneaz.org/life-groupsGiving https://cornerstoneaz.churchcenter.com/givingChurch Center App - Download then add Cornerstone Christian Center in Avondale, AZiOShttps://itunes.apple.com/us/app/my-church-center/id1357742931?mt=8&ls=1&ign-mpt=uo%3D4Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ministrycentered.churchcenter----Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cornerstoneazFacebookhttps://www.facebook.com/cornerstoneaz.orgTwitterhttps://twitter.com/cornerstoneaz.orgCornerstonehttps://www.cornerstoneaz.org/Follow Jesushttps://www.cornerstoneaz.org/follow-...Life Groups https://www.cornerstoneaz.org/life-gr...Giving https://cornerstoneaz.churchcenter.co...Church Center App - Download then add Cornerstone Christian Center in Avondale, AZiOShttps://itunes.apple.com/us/app/my-ch...Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/de...----Instagram   cornerstoneaz  Facebook  cornerstoneaz.org  Twitter  cornerstoneaz.org
