Welcome Back: Continuing Our Journey Through Revelation. Dear Covenant of Grace family, As we gather for our first service of 2025, we hope this message finds you refreshed and renewed after the holiday season. While the new year brings its share of uncertainties, we stand together as a community of faith, knowing that our hope is anchored in something far greater than worldly circumstances. Today, we continue our enlightening series "Highlights from the Book of Revelation" by examining the fourth of the seven churches - the Church of Sardis. This ancient city, once the capital of the wealthy Lydian empire, holds a powerful message for us today as we begin this new year. Sardis was a church that had a reputation for being alive, but was called out by Jesus as being spiritually dead. In a time when many of us might be setting new year's resolutions and reflecting on our spiritual journey, this message carries particular weight. What does it mean to truly be alive in Christ? How can we ensure our faith is authentic and vibrant, not just a facade? As we explore Revelation 3:1-6 together this afternoon, we'll discover both the warning and the hope contained in Christ's words to this church. The message to Sardis is a wake-up call - one that reminds us that spiritual complacency can affect any congregation, even those with impressive reputations. We look forward to diving deeper into this crucial passage together. Whether you're joining us in person or online, we invite you to come with an open heart and mind, ready to hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches - and to us - in 2025. Join us this afternoon as we explore how this ancient message speaks directly to our modern lives and challenges. Let's begin this new year by examining our own spiritual vitality and recommitting ourselves to being a church that's truly alive in Christ.
