God Matters (1 of 4)
Series: Core Values
Scott Maze
Psalm 84:1-12
Today I begin a series of five sermons where I speak to the NRH family. In these messages I want to speak to the framing values for our church going forward. Paying attention to the values that have framed our church’s past, I want to speak to the clarifying values that will frame our future. We examine Scripture’s charge to the church in a time where the values have shifted.?
As recently as last week, The New York Times, did a piece on the new pope, Pope Francis. What was noteworthy about the article was its correction.

The church has had a privileged place in the West in general and in the United States in particular.?

Week Three (April 21): We’ll see how Scripture matters in the life of our church. Week Four (April 28): I want to explore with you people who call NRHBC matter. Pastor Danny will be bringing this message. And then we conclude this series with Vision Sunday, May 5. You’ll wa ...
