There is Hope at Liberty and Church Streets


When your freedom has a faith encounter, you’re left with a choice. Will you deny the cross or take it up and carry it? Opponents of the cross find it offensive and limiting. But to those who believe, it is the power of God unto Salvation! It’s at the place where “Liberty” and “Church” streets intersect that decisions are made. In the message, “There is Hope at Liberty and Church Streets,” we discover the source of true freedom and what it means for you.

Connection Questions
  1. According to Luke 9:24, how do you save your life?
  2. Many people think of “church” as rules and regulations, the opposite of freedom. What do you think?
  3. John 8:36 says, “So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” Talk about the freedom that Jesus offers?
  4. Referring to the cross left standing at Ground Zero, one man said “It doesn’t represent my religion it represents my faith.” What does the cross represent to you?
  5. Have you experienced an intersection of “Liberty and Church?” A point where your will and God’s will collided and you knew you had to make a choice?
Conclusion

You can ignore the church and ignore the cross but you cannot ignore the decision that eventually has to be made: whether or not you will serve the Lord.

Connection Point
