We all look for someone to follow. Whether it’s politicians, industry experts, bosses, heroes, or social media influencers, we instinctively look for leadership.
And we’ve all been let down by it.
It’s a story as old as time: human power ultimately leads to a dead end. But the solution isn’t just finding a better human boss; we need a completely different kind of leader altogether.
At Salt Church, we are praying for a flood of lifelong disciples of Jesus in the Illawarra and beyond. Why? Because we know that the only leader who actually delivers on His promises, the only one truly worth following, is Him! The God who graciously provides.
On Sunday, 26 July, we’re launching a brand-new, 8-week series through the Old Testament book of 1 Samuel called “We Become What We Follow.”
Together, we’ll be getting stuck into the lives of Eli, Samuel, and Saul to see the contrast between good and terrible leadership.
Ultimately, this series is all about shifting our gaze. It’s a reminder to stop looking to ourselves or worldly leaders for rescue. Instead, we are called to rest in the God who is the true leader of His people, and who is completely for us.
Don’t wait until Sunday! Open up your Bibles and start reading through 1 Samuel now to get your head and heart ready for what’s to come.
Then, join us this Sunday at 275 Keira St, Wollongong. We’d love to see you at any of our three gatherings: 9:00 am, 10:45 am, and 5:00 pm.
