[Sunday] My Yoke is Rest - Kingdom Way - Matthew 11

Written By Cris Escher

- There are just so many burdens we are yoked to, but Jesus offers a different way, a kingdom of love and rest. Take on His Yoke of Rest. Matthew Chapter 11

Sunday Bulletin Feb 2nd

Questions for the Week: Kingdom Way: My Yoke is Rest

  1. Can you think of a time when you felt tempted to respond to a situation with anger or retaliation instead of love and forgiveness?

  2. Read Matthew 11.  Why do you think John the Baptist doubted Jesus while he was in prison? What were his expectations for the Messiah?

  3. What does it mean that 'the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he' (Matthew 11:11)? How does this challenge our own understanding of greatness?

  4. What does it practically mean to "take Jesus' yoke" upon you? What might that look like in your daily interactions?

[Sunday] Matthew 2 - Richer
[Sunday] Matthew 2 - Richer

Virtually every life transforming event recorded in Scripture includes a journey, a process the people involved go through that leads to insight, transformation and new life for all willing to engage that journey. The journey always includes elements of sacrifice, worship, trust and faith.  Christmas is about Jesus making the journey from heaven to earth, for the Magi it was the journey from wisdom to humility.  For us, it is a journey to wonder and new life.

[Sunday] Psalm 2 - Richer
[Sunday] Psalm 2 - Richer

Psalm 1 provides a blueprint for spiritual life, and helps us see how Jesus grew into His Messianic role.  Psalm 2 broadens from individual growth to God's MESSIANIC PLAN for the world and takes in the entire sweep of history.  This Sunday we are in an Advent state of mind.  Next Sunday we celebrate Christmas in July through the eyes of the Magi.

It was a wonderful week for the kids! They engaged their senses with a blindfolded smell-guessing activity and expanded their palates by sampling mangoes for their tropical fruit feature. They also learned about the story of Paul’s conversion on the road to Damascus.
