Sermon Notes

These two Benner quotes might give you an idea of where we felt the Lord leading us this last sunday. David Benner in his book "Gift of Being Yourself" says “Already Jesus had come to think of himself in relation not simply to earthly parents, but to his heavenly parent. His heavenly Father. And he was beginning to understand the latter, most fundamental aspect of his identity was the soil out of which his calling was to emerge. He was beginning to understand that His Father’s affairs were His affairs, and His Father’s priorities were His priorities.” David Benner says, “The core of that preparation was meeting God in the secret place of the inner self. It was through meeting God in times of solitude that Jesus discovered his identity and grew in intimacy with God.”
