For a video game controller to serve its’ designated purpose, it has to DO something. It has an expectation of performing specific functions in a manner that supports the completion of my mission objectives… I expect it to respond to my button presses and power auxiliary items that are attached to it, such as my headset. I also have a responsibility to my controller… I have to synchronize it to my console and keep my battery charged. There is a direct correlation to the presence of the power that makes my controller operate and what it is expected to DO once it receives that power… similar to the correlation between faith and works. And as we continue our series on the seven churches from the book of Revelation, it is time we deal with the one that we are probably most familiar with… the church at Laodicea.

Join us as we reflect on the critical truth that we are not saved BY our works, but for the purpose of DOING good works. Our actions and deeds are not a replacement for our faith, but the logical conclusion of what occurs BECAUSE of our faith. Much like a nice, shiny controller that fails to respond to a player’s input, we are little more than paperweights occupying space if we are not actively involved in doing what the Lord has told us to do.
