Scripture: Romans 8:1-4, 12-17
Message: Our Gospel Identities: We Are Family
Speaker: Pastor Tyler Graftaas


What does it mean to be a part of a family? For some, it is a sense of security, safety, acceptance and care. For others, it is a difficulty, tension, and frustration that you are “stuck” with these people you didn’t choose to be a part of. For good or for bad families share histories, experiences, and ways of doing things; who we are today is a result of our family experience and upbringing.
The family of God, however, is a different story altogether. As we continue our Gospel Identities series, we will take a look at what it means to be family, or as Paul calls it, “heirs of God and coheirs with Christ.” Not only does this family have a shared history and experience, but even more importantly we have a shared mission and anticipation of what is to come.
