Losing the Plot and Getting Back On Track

Concord Baptist Church Sermon Leave a Comment

Have you ever become distracted from the thing you were meant to be doing?

As we investigate John 21:1-19 on Sunday we’ll see that after Jesus died the disciples had lost the plot a bit too. They forgot what they were meant to be doing after Jesus’ death and brief departure. And we’ll see in this passage on Sunday how Jesus responds.

COVID-19 Easter Sunday

This Easter weekend we’re looking at how John portrays the incredible story of Jesus’ death and resurrection and the good news that this proclaims for all people everywhere.

May we truly know the life, the peace and the joy that Jesus brings this Easter.

Our Easter Sunday session will premiere at our usual time (10am). We hope you can join us then.

COVID-19 Good Friday

Concord Baptist Church News Leave a Comment

Easter has arrived – unlike any Easter we have celebrated in our lifetime.

Instead of meeting together to take communion and celebrate the wonderful thing that Jesus has done, we are continuing to stay at home to help contain the spread of COVID-19.

While we cannot meet face-to-face at this time, may you still know the loving presence of God. May you take the time this long weekend to read and to meditate on the incredible sacrifice that Jesus made on our behalf.

We’ve been looking at John’s account of Jesus’ final days and messages to his followers.

What happened to Jesus was not an accident but the fulfillment of God’s plans and purposes for our salvation.

When Jesus cried “It is finished” he gave up his life so that we could have life in His name.

Join us tomorrow at our 10am premiere for Good Friday.
