"What Is It that We Believe?" based on Matthew 16:13-20
"Who do say that I am?"
For Jesus' followers then and now, this question -- and our answer -- is where the rubber hits the road. In this passage, the disciple Peter -- never one to be shy or hesitant -- answers “You are the Christ!”
But some people won’t go that far; they will say Jesus was a great teacher, a social reformer, a political activist, but that’s it. Some will say he was a prophet, a miracle worker, the greatest man that ever lived – but still only a man.
How do we answer Jesus? What is it that we believe? Who do we say he is?
Please join us for worship this Sunday at 10 am at the First Congregational Church of Stoughton, An Open and Affirming Congregation of the United Church of Christ, 76 Pierce Street, Stoughton.
