[Sunday] Zeal In The Way - Missio Dei Part 4
While our fervent passions can inadvertently get in the way, God's relentless love empowers us to join His expansive mission, extending grace to all.

Questions for the Week: Missio Dei - Zeal In The Way
Can you think of a time when you were really zealous or passionate about something, and discuss whether that zeal was helpful or unhelpful in that situation?
Read Acts 11 (specifically focus on the verses around verse 17) and Peter saying, "who was I that I could stand in God's way?" Can you think of situations where you might be, or have been, unintentionally standing in God's way because of your own ideas or traditions, even if you thought we were doing the right thing?
Paul's transformation was key in the sermon (Philippians 3:4-6). What do we learn from his journey about how our understanding of God and faith can change and grow over time, and what does that mean for us?
The sermon ended by reminding us that "Christians are little Christs" and are called to bring God's love to unexpected people. Where have you seen unexpected people come into the family of faith?

[Sunday] July 6 - Who is the Beloved? - Christ in the Psalms
LOVE is at the core of Jesus’ PURPOSE, His WORDS, His DEEDS, His DEATH, His RESURRECTION, His ASCENSION, and His sending the HOLY SPIRIT. Today we explore the most important thing we need to know about His SERVANT LOVE.
The Book of Psalms has become one of the most overlooked books in the Bible. The psalms not only helped Jesus grow into being the Son of God, they also reveal Christ to us in helpful ways. We will consider several psalms as we try to put on the mind of Christ.

A plant cannot be healthy unless it has strong roots and healthy shoots. This Sunday we learn more about the roots of resurrection.
A healthy plant, like a healthy Christian, is always reaching for the Light and growing toward the Son. The flowering we call resurrection manifests who we are as people of God.

Thought for the Week: RESURRECTION EYES: Roots And Shoots: The Tap Root
Something strange is happening —
There is a great silence on earth today, a great silence, and stillness.
The whole earth keeps silent because the King is asleep.
The earth trembled and is still because God has fallen asleep in the flesh and he has raised up all who have slept ever since the world began. God has died in the flesh and the underworld trembles with fear.
--- from an ancient Holy Saturday Homily

Thoughts for the Week: RESURRECTION EYES: ROOTS AND SHOOTS from - Maccabees
2 Maccabees 7:14
[I] cannot but choose to die at the hands of evil men AND to CHERISH THE HOPE THAT GOD GIVES OF BEING RAISED AGAIN BY HIM. BUT FOR YOU THERE WILL BE NO RESURRECTION TO LIFE!”
2 Maccabees 7:22 - 7:23
“I do not know how you came to be in my womb; it was not I who gave you breath and life, nor was it I who arranged the elements you are made of.
Therefore, since it is the Creator of the universe who shaped the beginning of humankind and brought about the origin of everything, HE [THE LORD], IN HIS MERCY, WILL GIVE YOU BACK BOTH BREATH AND LIFE, BECAUSE YOU NOW DISREGARD YOURSELVES FOR THE SAKE OF HIS LAW.”

[Sunday] Seeing Emmaus- Resurrected Way
On the road to Emmaus the disciples realized that Jesus saved them from so much more than their small vision could ever see.
On the road to Emmaus the disciples realized that Jesus saved them from so much more than their small vision could ever see.
Questions for the Week: Resurrected Way: Seeing Emmaus
TheWhat image of Jesus comes most easily to your mind? Does that image feel complete, or are there other ways you might now think about what Jesus was all about or who he really was?
Read Luke 24:13-35. The disciples on the road to Emmaus had a specific idea of what Jesus was supposed to do to redeem Israel. They were mistaken. What's a time in your own life when you might have had a specific expectation of how God would work, but it turned out differently?
The disciples' "eyes were kept from recognizing" Jesus. Can you think of a time when you might have missed seeing something important because of your own assumptions or expectations? How can we try to have "open eyes" to the way of Jesus in our daily lives?
The moment the disciples recognize Jesus during the breaking of bread. How does coming to the Lord’s table, receiving his body and blood, open our eyes to the way of Jesus?

When the kingdom splits, Kings Rehoboam and Jeroboam desperately grasp for power and control, but God uses Elijah, a nobody from the sticks, to show us that true freedom comes not from controlling our circumstances but from trusting the King who went to the cross for us.
