Book of the Month:
The Unquenchable Flame: Discovering the Heart of the
Reformation by Michael Reeves
2017 marks the 500th anniversary of the Protestant
Reformation. These Reformers sought to bring the church
back to the Bible by recovering, prizing, and teaching the
Biblical gospel as revealed in the Scripture alone. I would
strongly encourage Christians to read this easily understood,
witty, informative, and concise work by Michael Reeves on the
history of the Protestant Reformation. - Pastor Andrew

 Monday
Yesterdays passage (John 15:18-16:4) shows us that Jesus
wanted His disciples to expect hatred from the world.
How is it helpful for us to know this in advance, rather than
be surprised when it comes? Consider praying through 1
Peter 4:12-14 and asking the Lord for the proper mindset
when you are criticized as a Christ follower.
Tuesday
From the beginning of the Gospels, through the book of
Acts, and all throughout church history we encounter the
practice of baptism. Spend much time around a faithful
church and you will no doubt see it happen firsthand.
Baptism is something that Christians are used to, yet
we must be careful because sometimes with familiarity
comes apathy. There is a reason that Christians, since the
establishment of the Church, have practiced baptism; God
gave it to us as a reminder of our union with Christ. The
water simply illustrates our death and new life in Christ.
Read Romans 6:1-4 and spend time meditating on the
words you find there. Then, if you find that you are not
as excited about baptism as you should be, ask God to
reinvigorate your view of it.
Wednesday
Having been buried with him in baptism, in which
you were also raised with him through faith in the
powerful working of God, who raised him from the
dead, (Col. 2:12). The metaphor Paul is using here is
drawn from Christs work on the cross. Paul is saying
that the Christian baptism represents an identification
with Christ in His death (Rom. 6:4-6). Along with this
is an identification with Christ in His resurrection (Eph.
2:6). Dying and rising with Christ signifies the believers
death to the power of sin and Satan. It also signifies the
empowerment to live a new life that Jesus calls believers
to and this is following and imitating Him. Pray and ask
the Lord, to grow you in the likeness of Christ, that you
would follow Him and imitate Him more. Praise the Lord
knowing that this is only possible through Christs work
on the cross.
Thursday
Visible words. That was the Protestant term for
baptism and the Lords Supper in the days following the
Reformation. In complement to the spoken words of
gospel preaching, these twin rhythms of the gathered
church are dramatizations of the grace of God. These
visible words rehearse for us the center of our faith
through the God-given images and actions of washing,
eating, and drinking. They engage not only our ears,
but all five sensessound, sight, touch, smell, and taste.
Alongside preaching, they reveal to us again and again
the heart of the gospel we profess and aim to echo in
our lives. They are enacted signs, pointing to realities
beyond themselves. -David Mathis, Habits of Grace
