Sermon Points:
- We are not trying to be an overnight success
We’re aiming to create an eternal impact over time.
- WHERE YOU ARE, DOES NOT DETERMINE WHO YOU ARE
- WHO YOU ARE, IS DETERMINED BY WHOSE YOU ARE
- WE DO THE RIGHT THING, BECAUSE IT’S RIGHT
- THERE IS GREATER PURPOSE, IN EVERY POSITION
Questions to Consider
(On your own or with a friend)
How does the concept of creating an eternal impact over time challenge our desire for instant success and gratification?
What motivates us to do the right thing, even when it may not be convenient or beneficial for us in the short term?
In what ways can we find greater purpose and meaning in our current positions, regardless of how insignificant or challenging they may seem?
How can this perspective impact our daily lives?
How can we differentiate between our true identity in God and the false identities imposed on us by others or society?
How often do we allow external circumstances and the environment to dictate our behavior, attitudes, and character?
In what ways can understanding and living out our identity as defined by God shape our relationships with others?
