Message by Josh Mutter – September 13, 2026
Series Big Idea: Our values help us discern what faithfulness looks like as we follow Jesus together.
Recap:
- Core Value: Relying on God means recognizing that we cannot do this on our own
- Core Value: Experiencing God’s love and grace means recognizing that we don’t have to do this on our own
Today’s Big Question: How are we formed into the kind of people who rely on God and experience His love and grace?
Core Value: Believing the Bible – We value the Bible as God’s authoritative Word, study it together, and build our lives on its truth.
James 1:22 (NIV) Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
Reflection: We are formed through our encounters with the Bible.
Core Value: Worshipping God – We value heartfelt worship that is God-honouring, Spirit-directed, and life-changing.
What is Worship: Worship is anything that turns our attention and our allegiance toward God.
Psalm 19:1 (NIV) The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Romans 12:1 (NIV) Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.
Reflection: We are formed through the practices of worship.
Concluding Thought:
We are formed in community with one another.
For Westheights:
- Our values shape how we gather.
- Our values shape how we make plans.
- Our values shape the kind of community we create.
