Keys for Continual Renewal

Below is a letter I wrote to the college students of our church who attended a retreat where I was privileged to preach. Our theme was The Heart of True Religion . We asked the questions “ what is at the heart of Christianity? and  “what do all true believers across space, time, and tradition have in common?”  After the retreat I was particularly burdened to speak to a common experience among Christians of all ages, but especially for young adults– going on a retreat, having an experience, getting really excited about fighting sin, pursuing Jesus, and sharing the Gospel, only to come down from the mountain and fall back into the same sin and lethargy that defined us as before. I wrote this letter to the students after the retreat, provoked by a sermon that was preached in our church on February 19th, 2023. February, 2023 Brothers and Sisters, We are now three weeks out from our retreat. I wanted to say thank you for attending and making it a weekend to remember. Special thanks...
