Sermons About Values
The Church of Thyratira: Revelation 2:18-28
In America, most of us have not been physically threatened for our faith. However, like the church at Thyratira, I would argue that most of our greatest temptations to compromise stem from either economic or social pressures. The church today is radically tempted to compromise by valuing the same things that the culture around us values. We serve a God who calls us to consider everything rubbish in order that we might gain Christ and be found in him. We cannot cling to the values of this world and still hold fast to the righteousness of our savior. Jesus offers us himself. Jesus calls us live lives of repentance, constantly letting go of our sin and clinging to his blood, shed on the cross for our sin, to forgive us and give us his perfect righteousness.

Can You See Him...in your values?
In week three of our series we are asking, “Can You See Him...in your values?”. A value is what you and I consider to be important. So what do you value as a family? A better question could be, what is important to your family? With all the distractions from life and culture, it is becoming more difficult to prioritize what truly is important. Today we will discover from God’s Word the possible cause to our ever constant eroding value system.
