Fresh Starts & New Beginnings
- Rev. Dr. Joe Moore
- December 28, 2025
Rev. Dr. Joe Moore reflects on the Sunday after Christmas as a natural time for honest reflection and hopeful anticipation, inviting the congregation to consider God’s gift of fresh starts and new beginnings. Drawing from Isaiah 40, he reminds us that God never grows weary and promises renewed strength to those who wait upon Him. Scripture shows that new beginnings are woven into God’s design—from creation itself to the transforming work of the Holy Spirit within believers. Dr. Moore illustrates that true change does not come from outward appearances or cover-ups, but from an inward renewal of the heart through Christ. Through faith, made possible by Jesus’ death and resurrection, we are invited into lives shaped by integrity, honesty, and obedience. As a new year approaches, the sermon calls each person to examine their relationship with God and to welcome the joy of salvation through intentional trust and faith in Christ.
