Church is not like a country club. Church is inclusive, not exclusive, and a place for healing, rather than for the well-heeled. Pastor Travis Williams continues with our sermon series Summer Road Trip, talking about how Jesus calls people in from the outskirts to give them rest. The scripture text comes from Luke 19:1-10 and John 14:1-7.

This podcast episode is a Sunday message from Evangel Community Church, Houghton, Michigan, June 19, 2022.

Scripture References: Luke 19:1-10, John 14:1-7

From Series: "Summer Road Trip"

A faith journey could be like a Summer Road Trip where we find ourselves cruising along a wide open highway, discovering new things and taking in the beauty. But along the way we run into construction, detours, and wrong turns. And sometimes we just run out of gas. In this sermon series, we'll look at the lives of people who encountered Jesus for directions and course corrections. Let Jesus set you back on the right route for your life adventure.

Notes

Men are called to love their wives as Christ loved the church. That's a tall order, because Christ was the man. A one-bullet-point sermon would be Love At All Costs, but what does that mean? A couple manly things to do would be to Provide and Protect. Men should also love with tenderness. Mr. Travis Williams, the leader of Evangel's Men's Fraternity, shares his personal struggles and challenges men to “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love.” That's 1 Corinthians 16:13-14, the sermon text, and it's on the black bracelets given to men who complete Session 1 of Men's Fraternity, The Quest for Authentic Manhood. From Evangel Church, Houghton, Michigan, October 11, 2015.
