Pastor Matt concluded the eight-week "I AM" series by recapping Jesus' seven identity statements from the Gospel of John, each revealing a facet of Christ's divine nature and offering a unique invitation to relationship. The sermon transitioned to launching Hope Church's annual Christmas offering with a goal of $155,000 to support kingdom-building initiatives locally, nationally, and globally, reminding believers that "we're not just saved from our past, but we're saved to help build His future."
