Heart and Soul - Week One

The sermon focuses on the concept of "heart and soul," drawn from 1st Samuel 14, emphasizing a commitment to God's mission. It explores Hebrews 10, highlighting that proximity to God is a privilege made possible through Jesus' sacrifice, contrasting it with the Old Testament restrictions. The message urges listeners to recognize the privilege of being in community with one another, especially during challenging times like the pandemic, cautioning against the idea of an "online church" and the dangers of falling away from faith. It stresses the importance of physical presence and unity within the church for encouragement, influence, and demonstrating the gospel, while also acknowledging the risks associated with proximity and the consequences of rejecting God's offer.
