1. Friday Night
Jake Chambers, pastor and church planter of Local Church, gives four talks at Thrive’s Fall Retreat on the theme of “learning to be with Jesus together.” Who is the God who invites us to be with Him? In this first talk, Jake unpacks four amazing statements about who God is, and what that means for who we are. God is great, so we don’t have to be in control. God is glorious, so we don’t have to be afraid of others. God is good, so we don’t have to look elsewhere for satisfaction. And God is gracious, so we don’t have to prove ourselves. Scripture passages cited in this message include Genesis 1:1; Romans 8:26-30; Proverbs 29:25; Psalm 8:1; 16:11; Jeremiah 2:13; and John 4:13-14; 1:16; 19:30.
