HRC Advancing Despite Adversity into 2021

Hindsight is 2020, and — thankfully — 2020 is now hindsight. As the Hampton Roads Church leans into a new year, let’s do more than survive, let’s thrive together. Let’s advance despite adversity. Let’s soar despite setbacks. And let’s deepen our love for God, His Word, His Church, and His Mission. We are a Resilient people of God. This is what we do.

So we’re trying something new in 2021. We aspire to read through the New Testament (NT ) TOGETHER (and we really mean everyone)! Let’s firm up our faith foundation on the Word, and let’s apply and share that Word together as we march into the new year shoulder to shoulder. By literally getting onto the same page, we can ALL discuss our most recent marvels in His Word. Imagine 2021 with husbands and wives in salty conversations; moms and sons in deep discussion; brothers and sisters devoted to the Word: even “Haverim” in vigorous debate over the depths of the Word. We got this! And God’s got us, so let’s go.

What do I discover about God/Jesus here? God spoke to the recipients of the Old Testament through many amazing ways, but that’s nothing compared to our receipt of the Word through Jesus, His son.

January 1. Reading the NT Together

In Acts 8:34-35, we read about the power of communal Bible study…This reminds me of a chapter in Sitting At The Feet Of Rabbi Jesus. The chapter, “Get Yourself Some Haverim,” introduces the vital concept of communal Bible study:
