Summary:
In the sermon “I Believe in God the Father,” Pastor Vicki Harrison initiates the “Creed” series, focusing on the profound truths embedded in the Apostles’ Creed. This series, deeply rooted in the community and faith of New Hope, aims to fortify believers with a robust understanding of foundational Christian doctrines, guiding daily actions and strengthening communal bonds.
Pastor Vicki highlights the revolutionary nature of declaring the Apostles’ Creed, emphasizing its role in defining and defending core Christian beliefs against cultural and historical waves of materialism, consumerism, and relativism. By reciting “I believe,” rather than “I know,” she distinguishes our faith-driven convictions that actively shape our life choices, unlike mere knowledge which often fails to impact behavior.
The sermon beautifully unfolds the dual nature of God as the Almighty Creator and a loving Father, illustrating God’s power and parental care with scriptural backing and relatable analogies. This approach not only aligns with New Hope’s values of being “Rooted in God’s Word” and “Renewed by the Holy Spirit” but also reinforces the church’s mission to deepen the faith of its congregation and reach out to the world with the message of Jesus Christ’s love and salvation.
The call to action for the congregation is to engage deeply with the Creed study, ensuring that every member understands and lives out the truths of their faith, fostering unity and purpose within the community. This reflective and educational journey promises to equip believers to articulate their faith better and to live out the transformative power of the Gospel in every aspect of life.
