Jesus tells us that if we want to save our lives, we will lose them. What did he mean? In this week’s message, Fr. Michael Novotny focuses on Romans 12:1-3 and explains what it means to offer our lives as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable to God. Join us as we continue our series in the book of Romans.
What are we to think about God’s sovereignty? Because God is sovereign are we to resign to a mechanical determinism? In this week’s message on Romans 11:25-36, Fr. Michael Novotny helps us understand these questions, especially as they relate to the mystery of salvation for Jews and Gentiles alike. For the Apostle Paul, God’s sovereignty led not to determinism, but to doxology.
How do you respond to the life-sustaining work of our Creator? When the disciples saw Jesus walking on water, they were full of fear. “Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid,” was Jesus’ response. In this life, we encounter many opportunities to fear. This week, Fr. Michael breaks from our series in Romans to encourage us to take courage and fear not.
What does it mean to be loved by God? Love can mean many different things in our culture. St. Paul tells us that nothing can separate us from the love of God (Rom. 8:39). In this week’s message Fr. Michael Novotny reminds us that God loves each of us. Listen to this important sermon as we continue our series on the Book of Romans.
