In this sermon, we continued our vision casting series to set faith goals for our church in the new year. We looked at our mission to cultivate lives and ministry that revolve around the Gospel. We saw that in order to do this we must stand together, not wavering or compromising the truths of God's Word. We also saw how we must strive together, rallying around the common goal of proclaiming the Gospel. Finally, we saw how our endeavor to revolve around the Gospel means that there will be times where we will need to suffer together. In a world that actively works against the church and the things of God, our hope as believers is to stand together and for the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
