U Matters - 27 Apr 2017

by Greg Anderson on April 27, 2017

I am not a big user of apps—but that is changing. One big reason is that Union Church now has its own app! All you need to do is go to the App Store (or wherever or however you get app) and type in Union Church. You will find it a ready source of information, encouragement, and feedback. Speaking of encouragement, how is your week going?

This Sunday we begin a new series on the book of James: Faith Works. This year is the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation and the question of FAITH vs. WORKS was a big one then—and still is now. Preparing for Union's move is forcing me to put my faith into practice in new and not always comfortable ways. Many of you have challenges that are not easy. Then we read James 1:2: “When you face trials of any kind, consider it nothing but joy.” Have the sort of joyful day that doesn’t make sense if you didn’t know Jesus!

About the Author

Greg Anderson

Greg Anderson joined Union as Senior Pastor in January 2007. He has served churches in England and in the US and has taught at Wheaton College. He has degrees from Wheaton, Princeton Seminary, Yale University, and the University of Minnesota. Greg has been married to and besotted by Holly for 29 years. They have four children: Lindsey a chemical engineer in Boston, Andrew a banker in London, Jamie an actor in LA, and John a student at Hong Kong University. Greg has a passion for preaching, evangelism, teaching, church growth, and equipping people for ministry in the marketplace. He gets teased for quoting C S Lewis too often and having a staff so stunning that people wonder what there is left for him to do. He collects and even reads books, watches baseball on the internet, and thanks God daily for the opportunity to serve with such an amazing congregation.
