Considering the Example of Jesus | The Work and the Way of the Messiah Dr. Jerry Shields | January 11, 2026 | Matthew 3, verses 13–17 As we step into a new year, it’s natural to reflect on where we’ve been—and to ask where God is leading us next. In this message from Matthew 3, Dr. Jerry Shields invites us to look closely at the baptism of Jesus and to consider what His example teaches us about beginning well with the Lord. Jesus’ baptism wasn’t a mere moment in the story—it marked the start of His public ministry and shines a light on what a faithful life looks like. This sermon explores how the example of Jesus expresses: Dependence on God — acknowledging our need for the Father and learning to trust Him daily Dedication to God — living a consecrated life that is publicly aligned with God’s will Service of God — embracing our identity as God’s children and stepping into His purpose for our lives Whether you’re exploring faith, considering baptism, or needing a fresh renewal of your walk with Christ, this message points us back to the heart of discipleship: a life marked by dependence, dedication, and service. _____________________ In This Video: 0:00 - Introduction: Reflections for 2026 1:15 - Scripture Reading: Matthew 3, verses13-17 2:45 - Why was Jesus baptized? 4:00 - Expression I: Dependence on God (The "Fishing Reel" Illustration) 9:28 - Expression II: Dedication to God 13:46 - Expression III: Service of God 20:47 - Conclusion: A Call to Follow the Example of Jesus ______________________ **Find us elsewhere online** Facebook page-----   / fbcbwd   instagram----------   / fbcbwd   website--------- https://www.fbcbwd.com/
