Summary
In the inspiring sermon “A Light to the Nations,” Rev. Roberto Chaple eloquently discusses the profound responsibility and privilege believers have to reflect Christ’s light to the world. Drawing from biblical texts, Rev. Chaple emphasizes that as followers of Jesus, we are called to spread the transformative love and truth of Jesus not only locally but globally, resonating with New Hope’s mission to make more and better followers of Jesus Christ. He encourages the congregation to embody the values of being rooted in God’s Word, renewed by the Holy Spirit, and committed to reaching the world for Jesus Christ.
