NOLA Church - New Orleans
We are a Life-giving faith-community in New Orleans, LA.Listen to the sermons from our Sunday and First Wednesday Worship Experiences.
So, Pastor Monte was preaching about being a citizen of God’s Kingdom, basically like being part of God’s crew. He said it’s more than just showing up on Sundays; it’s about living your life according to God’s rules and being all in. He talked about how it’s like moving to a new country and wanting to fit in—you gotta learn the language, understand the laws, and embrace the culture. It’s the same with God’s Kingdom.
He broke down what it means to be a citizen: it’s about following Jesus as the boss, living by God’s values like love and forgiveness, and getting involved in making the world a better place. He also explained how to become a citizen: you gotta turn away from bad stuff, believe in Jesus, and get baptized.
The best part was when he talked about the perks of being a citizen. It’s like having a VIP pass to heaven, feeling super chill and happy all the time, having a purpose for your life, and having the power to overcome challenges. This is a great sermon that really makes you think.
