Thinking about Hope
Rev. Benjamin Wines
Philippians 4:1-9
We look forward to joining you in Worship this Sunday, starting at 11:00AM in the Sanctuary. You can also find our services online at the HVBC YouTube Channel. Today’s sermon is titled, “Thinking about Hope”. We will be reading from Philippians 4:1-9, and our Call to Worship comes from Psalm 106.
Call to Worship Psalm 106:1-6
Leader: Praise the Lord! O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
People: For his steadfast love endures forever.
Leader: Who can utter the mighty doings of the Lord
People: Or declare all his praise?
Leader: Happy are those who observe justice,
People: Who do righteousness at all times.
Leader: Remember us, O Lord, when you show favor to your people;
People: Help us when you deliver them,
Leader: That we may see the prosperity of your chosen ones,
People: That we may glory in your heritage.
Leader: Both we and our ancestors have sinned;
People: We have committed iniquity, have done wickedly.
Questions for Further Reflection:
This passage encourages us to look for hope in good things all around us.
What sorts of things bring you hope?
How does your belief in the hope of God connect with those things?
