Turn up your volume. Today we're reflecting on the "Journey to the Cross" theme verse, 1 Peter 2:24, which says, "He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live to righteousness."
First, listen to this 5 minute clip from a sermon of John Piper's, head pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church in the Twin Cities Area of Minnesota. You can hear the whole sermon by clicking here. After that, listen to the song "In Christ Alone," performed by Adrienne Liesching and Geoff Moore.
1. What does John Piper say is the only hope for the people of his church?
2. If you believed that Jesus Christ bore your sins, how would your life be different? How would it affect how you viewd your past sin?
3. Are you a "night-guity" person or a "morning-guilty" person?
4. Is sin overpowering you right now? What do you need to tell God today?
