New Beginnings | J.D. Greear | January 8, 2023

Summary

This sermon focuses on the theme of new beginnings, particularly as people set resolutions at the start of a new year. It highlights common resolutions, including returning to church, and uses an anecdote about an atheist facing a bear to illustrate the power of faith and prayer, even in dire circumstances. The practical takeaway is that while resolutions are good, genuine faith and turning to God are what truly matter, as exemplified by the story's surprising conclusion about the bear.
