10th September 2017 – First things first… 

September 7, 2017 Pastor Matt Bishop

Matthew 18:15-20 covers a fair bit of ground  On one hand it deals with the difficult issue of excommunication.  On the other it gives great comfort:  God’s promise of forgiving through us and also being in the midst of ‘wherever two or three are gathered in my name’.  But do we listen to exactly what Jesus is saying here?  Especially the first step for serving each other where sin has ruptured relationship (Matthew 18:15)? Today we’ll hear Jesus on this and in doing so, step into his promise of presence and forgiveness.
