Guest Pastor Shaun Martens preaches that the cross is a profound symbol in Christianity, embodying the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and his fulfillment of divine promises. These promises, or covenants, are a foundational aspect of biblical teachings, tracing a path from the book of Genesis to the New Covenant brought forth by Jesus' life, death, resurrection, and ascension. This narrative arc forms the core of the Gospel message, offering hope and redemption through the New Covenant, which is central to Christian faith and life. May we, Christians, live in the hope of the New Covenant Gospel message of Jesus Christ.
