241006 - I Want In - You’re In - Nathanael Ballew

Riverside Church, Birmingham, UK

TEACHING SERIES: I Want In TITLE You’re In BY: Nathanael Ballew DATE: Sunday 6 October 2024 BIBLE PASSAGES: Ephesians Chapter 1, verse 13-14 EXCERPT: Mahatma Gandhi famously once said, 'I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians.' It's not difficult to understand what he meant. Why is it that followers of Jesus seem, sometimes, to be so unlike the Jesus they follow? Why does Christianity often appear to be bad news, rather than good? And, for some of us, the question is much more personal... why is it so hard to see any change in our own lives? If Jesus came to change the world, why can't I seem to change the patterns and actions in my own life? Welcome: What's true of Riverside Church when we meet together in-person is still true of us online. We are on a journey together to help people get to know Jesus and grow as his followers across Birmingham and beyond. Riverside is a church made up of people from a diversity of backgrounds and experiences all with one thing in common; our discovery of God and His amazing love. We hope you will feel at home among us and that you will find our weekly services, events and groups welcoming and relevant to your life. Whoever you are, whatever you believe, you're so welcome in this community.
