Sermon Notes / Reflection Guide – October 26, 2025

Posted by NCLC | Oct 26, 2025 | Sermon Notes |

These Sermon Notes invite reflection on the Reformation message of grace and freedom. Our Reflection Guide helps us explore how God’s truth continually re-forms our lives and community in love and hope.

Key Points

Reformation reminds us that faith and life are always changing. We are continually reformed by grace.
God’s love is a gift freely given, not something we can earn or perfect.
Truth in Christ brings freedom from fear and self-doubt.
Being “reformed” means learning, growing, and releasing what no longer fits.
Grace calls us to live with openness, generosity, and hope.

Scripture References

Psalm 46
Romans 3:19–28
John 8:31–36
John 1:1–5

Reflection Questions

How does the idea of being “set free by truth” shape your daily choices?
What might it look like for our church to live as a community being continually reformed?
