READ:

Read or listen to Romans 5:6-11.

For while we were still helpless, at the right time, Christ died for the ungodly. For rarely will someone die for a just person—though for a good person perhaps someone might even dare to die. But God proves his own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. How much more then, since we have now been justified by his blood, will we be saved through him from wrath. For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, then how much more, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life. And not only that, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received this reconciliation.

The written Scripture is CSB, however the audio Scripture is ESV.

FOCUS:

Gather to worship with the witnessing community at one of our five campuses today.

How do the passages you read on Thursday and Friday relate to today’s passage?
Do you have a personal story of reconciliation? How does that parallel God’s story of reconciliation?

PRAY:

Pray for increased effectiveness in the witness of the global church to the unbelieving world.
