Walking in Meekness

Nov 24, 2024    Pastor Steven Pettis Jr

In this powerful message, we're challenged to embrace meekness as a crucial element of our Christian walk. The sermon delves into Ephesians 4:1-3, emphasizing that meekness isn't weakness, but rather strength under control. We're reminded of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, who demonstrated ultimate meekness by restraining his power and submitting to God's will. This parallel invites us to consider how we can exercise meekness in our own lives, especially in conflicts and challenging relationships. The message urges us to prioritize unity in the body of Christ, highlighting that our ability to forgive and show patience is a testament to God's work in our lives. As we reflect on this, we're encouraged to examine our hearts, confront our pride, and actively pursue reconciliation with others, recognizing that our unity as believers is a powerful witness to the world.
