Preached on May 4, 2025 at Christ Community’s Shawnee Campus, this sermon explores the deep question at the heart of the Christian life: What does it mean to be a good person—and how do we actually become one? Drawing from 2 Peter 1:1–4, I invite you to consider not only what virtue is, but how the beauty and power of Christ form us into good people.
📖 In this message, I unpack:
- Why modern definitions of goodness fall short.
- How God’s divine power gives us everything we need for life and godliness.
- The difference between knowing about Jesus and truly knowing Him (epignōsis).
- How beholding Christ’s beauty transforms us into His image.
We don’t become like Jesus by accident. We become what we behold. So the Christian call is not just to obey rules—but to be captivated by the glory and goodness of Christ.
📖 Key Passage: 2 Peter 1:1–4
🎧 Listen and reflect: Am I captivated by Jesus in a way that’s actually changing me?
