Who Is Jesus

WHO IS JESUS?
Sermon Series and Small Group Study
Message from Pastor Scott Farmer:

Jesus for Everyone!

Some sermon series just thrill me. 
Many “gospels” are available today as in the first century.  Dr. Luke invites healthy skeptics to “investigate everything from the beginning” and “know the certainty of the things we’ve been taught about Jesus.”

This summer begins an in depth fascination with Jesus for skeptic and disciple alike. Our goals for this series:

  1] Strengthen our confidence in the centrality of Christ.
  2] Disciple us through Luke’s gospel.
  3] Speak to us on issues before US culture from scripture:

  • The poor among us
  • Universal gospel of Jesus
  • Religion and racism
  • Servant Mission
  • Role of women in church and ministry
  • The Holy Spirit
  • Religion vs. Jesus
  • Concern for ‘sinners’
  • Family relationships
  • Sheer joy in the good news of the kingdom

We pray exposing our hearts and minds to Luke’s gospel will excite CPCers and the people of the San Ramon Valley to eagerly discover and follow Jesus for years to come.
