Well Pleased

Why would the sinless Son of God walk into the Jordan River to be baptized? In this message, we look at Jesus standing in line with sinners, the Spirit descending like a dove, and the Father's voice from heaven: "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased." The timing of those words matters. Before a single miracle or sermon, the Father delighted in nearly thirty years of quiet, ordinary faithfulness. If you've ever felt your story isn't dramatic enough to matter, this message is for you. In Christ, we don't work our way up to "well pleased." We start there, and we live faithfully in the field God has given us.
