Join us at our Logan Church as we commence our new series, Rooted in God. This week Pastor Henry explores what it means to anchor our lives in faith rather than in our own strength, achievement, or the approval of others. We can be like a tree planted by water whose roots reach toward God – the true source of life – rather than a desert shrub that only survives. By building a consistent rhythm of daily prayer, reading God’s Word, gathering in community, and resting in God’s presence, our roots can grow deeper even during dry seasons. Remember, what you are rooted in dictates how you will weather the storms ahead, and that when your identity is anchored in Jesus, you will continue to stand and bear fruit in every season.
Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit. – Jeremiah 17:8 (ESV)
