John - Next Faithful Step

John Rittenhouse
Today Pastor John preaches an Easter sermon from John 20, walking through five people in the resurrection account to build a single central talking point: no matter where you are in your faith journey, there is always a "next faithful step" available to you. Each character responds differently, Joseph and Nicodemus risk their reputations, Mary stays at the tomb in grief, Peter and John run to see for themselves, and Thomas refuses to believe until Jesus personally invites him to touch his wounds, and every one of those responses counts as a faithful step forward. The sermon's challenge to the congregation is direct: you don't need all the answers or to have it all figured out, you just need to take the one step in front of you, whether that's returning to church, reading the book of John, telling someone about your faith, or praying to receive Christ for the very first time.

John

The gospel of John is different than the other three gospels. While Matthew, Mark and Luke talk about what Jesus did, John talks about who Jesus is. In this series we explore the life of Jesus and the impact it has on our lives bringing light and life.
