RELATE - Week One: Up, In and Out

Passage: Mark 12:28-31 (Deuteronomy 6:4-5; Leviticus 19:18); Matthew 28:18-20

Summary:

There is one God over all of life and loving God entails submitting every aspect of life to Him. How we view and relate to God (Up) changes us (In) which in terms shapes how we relate to others (Out). The vertical changes the internal which changes the horizontal. This first message will set up the entire Relate series to show that getting a right perspective of Who God Is and What God Has Done for us changes how we view Who We Are resulting in How We Relate to Others. Jesus is the perfect expression of this by showing perfectly who God is through how he related to others. Our baptism is our ongoing reminder of our new identity in Christ that changes how we relate to God and others.

How We Relate Reveals Who We Worship.
