Sermons for February 2020

January 20, 2020 by Ed Vinson in Sermons

During the month of February, I will preach through Romans 8 (my favorite chapter). The four sermons will highlight four freedoms we have as Christians:

  1. Romans 8:1-4, we say, “I’m no good.” God says, “I don’t condemn you.” That’s a life of liberty.
  2. Romans 8:5-16, we say, “I’ll never change.” God says, “You have victory over sin.”
  3. Romans 8:17-30, we say, “my life’s falling apart.” God says, “You can expect good.”
  4. Romans 8:31-39, we say, “There’s no future for me.” God says, “You can live in security.”
