DIFFERENT: Because normal isn’t working (Are you different?)

Pastor Tony Liuzzo (Lead Pastor) - 1 Corinthians (2 Thessalonians 2:3; 1 Corinthians 1:1-5; 6:11 Romans 10:9 & 13; Matthew 7:21-23)

 

Most people strive to be normal. Our goal is to fit in, do what everyone else is doing, and be socially accepted. It is a natural desire to want to be normal. The truth is that most people that are striving for normal would admit that life is a constant struggle.

When Jesus came to earth, His mission was to show a way that wasn’t “normal,” but different...very different! His ways went against the grain of society and stood out amongst those striving to live normal lives. His ways work! His ways bring peace, unity, and life change.

It is time we strive to be like Jesus to be different…because normal isn’t working.

 

DIFFERENT: Because normal isn't working!
"Are you different?"
I. We are saved by Jesus
II. We are changed by Jesus
