Children Who Wait with Patience - July 19, 2026
This Sunday, we begin a two‑week exploration of Romans 8 — a chapter that reminds us who we are and what holds us when life becomes difficult. In Week One, we’ll focus on Romans 8:12–25 and the gift of our identity as God’s children. Paul tells us that before we act, serve, or endure, we must remember that we belong to God. Even as the world groans and life feels heavy, the Spirit assures us that we are adopted, beloved, and never alone.Paul is honest: the Christian life includes struggle. Yet he invites us to “wait with patience,” not because waiting is easy, but because our identity gives us strength and hope. This message prepares us for Week Two, when Paul reveals the firm foundation that makes such patient hope possible.We hope you’ll join us as we begin this journey together and listen for the Spirit’s reminder: You are God’s beloved child, held in hope. Hope you will join us, in person or online, this Sunday. First Christian Church of Lawrenceville is located in Lawrenceville, Georgia in Gwinnett County.

Sowing Seeds of Abundance - July 12, 2026
This week, we will take a look at one of Jesus’s best-known parables, one that appears in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. It is sometimes called the parable of the seed or the parable of the soil, but the author of Matthew’s gospel names it the Parable of the Sower. As Jesus explains, sower throws out seed and it lands in different places. The seed that lands on rocky, dry, or weed-infested soil dies; the seed that lands on good soil takes root and produces a harvest that is thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or even one hundredfold more than the original seed. It’s easy to see this as a story of different kinds of soil, and a reminder that we need to be the good soil that allows God’s word to flourish. But that’s not actually the main point of Matthew’s version of this parable. His focus is less on the soil, and more on the abundance at the harvest. It’s a parable that reminds us that God’s love is active in our world, and God’s harvest will come in time, even if we can’t see it right now. It’s also a powerful reminder that we should keep sowing God’s word, even if not all of our efforts come to fruition. We will explore this story and its context in worship this week. Hope you will join us, in person or online, this Sunday. First Christian Church of Lawrenceville is located in Lawrenceville, Georgia in Gwinnett County.

The Easy Yoke - July 5,2026
As you know, Teresa and I usually preach from the Revised Common Lectionary, which gives us a sequence of scriptures for the different seasons of the church year. Some of the lectionary scriptures are familiar stories that are enjoyable to retell and connect to our lives of faith. At other times, the lectionary pushes us out of our comfort zone and into passages that are perplexing, or hard to understand. That's definitely the case this week. The gospel reading from Matthew begins with Jesus addressing a crowd who have been criticizing both him and John the Baptist. He uses the image of children to shine a light on the failings of Jewish society. In a prayer to God, he reminds all who are listening that those who understand God are not the leaders or the powerful or the well-educated, but the lowly and innocent who trust in God. And then he closes his preaching with a passage of comfort: "Come to me, all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest... for my yoke is easy and my burden is light." That last passage has been misunderstood over the ages. It's not a promise of an easy Christian life. As we know, living out our faith an be difficult, especially when others fail to understand or challenge our reasons for following the example of Jesus. Instead, Jesus is promising that those who follow him will be freed from onerous work that they are not well-suited for, and instead will find meaningful work that fulfills them. So how does this connect to our lives today? It's a promise of God's grace, and also a call to find ways to use our own skills and interests and passions to create a world where God's kingdom is realized and God's grace is extended to everyone. We will dig into this confusing and challenging passage, and see how it can guide us as a church. Hope you will join us in person this Sunday.
