Working Model of New Creation; Feasting with the King [October 11, 2026]
Jesus uses a story of a wedding feast to illustrate our invitation into the Kingdom and the gift of righteousness He offers. There are those too busy to accept the invitation, and those who care not for the ones delivering the invitations. There are also some who will accept the invitation but refuse to put on the wedding garment offered by the Host. When we accept the invitation to salvation that is freely offered and put on the righteousness of Christ we feast with the King… a Jesus-shaped church on mission.

What does it look like when formation begins to take shape in how we live together? Jesus calls His church into a different kind of community; one marked by reconciliation, forgiveness, humility, and wholehearted obedience. As we receive His grace, steward what He’s given, and respond to His invitation, we learn to live not by appearance or obligation, but as people who truly belong to Him. This is the life of the Kingdom on display - a community bearing His image, extending His mercy, and living as a working model of new creation.
