Reckoning and Renewing: The Inheritance We Didn't Choose

from FBCDC Sermons (Video) Hosted by Julie Pennington-Russell

Luke 4:16-21 opens a five-week series at First Baptist called Reckoning and Renewing, a chance to look honestly at our own story and our nation's, the dark pieces along with the redeeming ones. When we can name what's true about the past without flinching, that past loses its power to hold us in regret or shame. The series moves us a step further into freedom: naming what we've inherited, wrestling with how scripture itself has been used and misused, listening to our own members' stories, and finally asking what faithfulness looks like as we walk forward together. Pastor Julie begins the series with "The Inheritance We Didn't Choose." Readings: Isaiah 61:1-3; Philippians 2:1-11; Luke 4:16-21.
