Ecclesiology

Grace Chapel Wilsonville

In this sermon, Mike emphasizes the importance of developing a biblical worldview through the "Foundations" series, focusing on understanding our identity in Christ. He encourages the congregation to detangle their beliefs from worldly ideas that distort their faith, asserting that many find their identities entangled with secular notions of success and acceptance rather than firmly rooted in Scripture. Highlighting the significance of being filled with the Holy Spirit and identifying as children of God, he challenges listeners to recognize their blessed identities—chosen, forgiven, and empowered—rather than being trapped in shame or insecurity. Mike concludes by inviting individuals to open their hearts to healing and blessing as they embrace their true identities in Christ, which promises transformation and hope.
