This Week at Northbrook: May 9, 2025
If someone took a look at your life right now… would they see a faith that’s built to last—or something starting to lean and crack under pressure?
This Sunday, we’ll open 2 Peter 1:3–11, where Peter calls us to build a life that’s anchored in Christ and designed for spiritual growth, not spiritual drift. God has already given us everything we need—his power, his promises, and his presence. But it’s our daily pursuit of Christ that builds a life of purpose, endurance, and joy.
Take a moment to reflect this week: Am I actively growing, or quietly coasting?
Let’s come ready to build together—with focus, faith, and full confidence in the One who holds it all.
Looking forward to worshiping with you!
PS: Don't forget about Members' Meeting next Wednesday, May 14 at 6:30pm. We will have a special service to license to ministry service Katie Bentley and Robert Adams. We will also observe the Lord's Supper together. Make plans to join us!
