Everyone has a different take on New Year’s. Are you into resolutions or intentions? Do you pick a word for the year? Maybe New Year’s is no big thing for you, and it’s just like every other day. With this week’s sermon, we learn a unique and helpful way to view the new year by looking at the foundation of Jesus’ ministry.

In Mark 1:14-15, Jesus began his ministry by proclaiming the good news that God is near and the time has come for change and reorientation (repent and believe). In other words, it is time to stop doing the things that lead us away from God and start doing the things that lead us toward God. This truth can change the way we approach the new year as we seek to grow spiritually and bring about real, lasting change in our lives.
