Sermon brings legal logic to biblical counsel

Tomorrow morning, Sunday, September 27, I will have the privilege of speaking to North Scituate Baptist Church (NSBC) in Rhode Island about Hebrews 13:5.

The verse (NIV) reads:

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
I hope to share some legal logic with the congregation, breaking down the verse as a statement of causation. I'll also describe how I found evidence of the verse's causal truth when I traveled in one of my favorite places in 2020, Ghana.

When the service is available online, I will link to it here (message archive; YouTube channel). Meanwhile and for then, below are the slides I will share (all RJ Peltz-Steele CC BY-NC-SA 4.0).

I'm grateful to my friends at NSBC, especially for the support of Pastor Kim Nelson, administrator Gretchen Oldham, and musical coordinator Linda Farynyk.

I wish all a blessed first weekend of autumn.
