- You represent Christ, so act like it.
Scripture: Psalms 119
- Have you made a resolution this year to be determined and committed to Christ.

- What is the difference between how you were and how you are now?
Scripture: 1 Peter 1
- Listen to the spirit of Christ.
- Do you love the people outside of the church more than you do those in the church?
- It doesn’t really matter what you like to do, what does God want you to do?
