Sermon Notes

How do we live with the first command and the curse? How do we reconcile "be fruitful and multiply" with the very real brokenness all around us? Ashley talks through the challenges to physical fruitfulness and directs us to Jesus, who was single and spiritually fruitful.

  • We bring the pain to Jesus. This is the good news.
  • Jesus completes us in every way.
  • God created us to be fruitful physically and spiritually.
  • There is grace for the brokenness in our world that disrupts that fruitfulness.
  • When broken, we seek God and our community for grace.
  • May we please God by pursuing the fruitfulness He intends for each of us.
