This Week at Mount Hope // October 1-6,
2019
|
|
Welcome to this week's edition of the LOOP. In this email, you will find everything that's happening over the next few weeks within our Mount Hope Community.
|
WHO IS JESUS?
How do you define success? What makes you feel successful? For some of us, it is the completion of a project at work or at school. It might be hitting a financial goal like landing a great job or paying off debt. The more we pursue success, we find that it is often an elusive goal. There will always be someone more successful than us or there is always more we can do.
We're often pushing ourselves towards success and never really getting there.
So, how do you define success? What does success look like for us as Christ-followers and for us as the Church? Scripture has plenty to say about success and it rarely looks like how the world defines it.
Join us as we continue in our new series "Who is Jesus?," where we look closely at the words of the Apostle Paul to the Colossian Church. Here he unpacks who Jesus truly is and how these truths impact our lives.
