1 Corinthians

Luke 3:1-6
In the fifteenth year of the reign of Emperor Tiberius, when Pontius Pilate
was governor of Judea, and Herod was ruler of Galilee, and his brother
Philip ruler of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias ruler of
Abilene, ²  during the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of
God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness. ³  He went into all the
region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the
forgiveness of sins,  ⁴  as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet
Isaiah, ‘The voice of one crying out in the wilderness:
“Prepare the way of the Lord,
    make his paths straight.
⁵  Every valley shall be filled,
    and every mountain and hill shall be made low,
and the crooked shall be made straight,
    and the rough ways made smooth;
⁶  and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.”’

Our new Senior Pastor, Adam Spore, preaches at FUMC Waxahachie for the first time this coming Sunday. Since we are just getting started on a new journey together, we’ll examine what the Apostle Paul told the early church in Corinth as they began their journey. Paul grounded his message in the simple truth of God's grace, the power of a unified church, and the transformation we experience through Christ. Just like a butterfly starts small and grows over time, our faith is transformed little by little on strong, simple truths. Join us Sunday for the first in a series on New Creation as we take our first small steps together.
