Creating Breathing Room for Emergent Generations (Donnell Wyche)

Summary: Churches that creatively and faithfully reveal grace will create breathing room for the disconnected to connect, for the disfavored to find favor, and for the discounted to count. When we do this we will create space for people to ask their questions, we will create space for people to discover God, we will create space for people to be transformed by Jesus, we will create space for restoration, and renewal.

Vineyard Church of Ann Arbor Sermon Series

The Da Vinci Code is an opportunity to engage the popular culture in a conversation about Jesus. It also makes claims (portrayed as fact) which are contrary to Christian faith. Therefore we should enter the conversation and respond to these claims.

What did Jesus leave behind for us to treasure and tend until his return? 1.) The God-embraced world, 2.) The Spirit, who bears hisloving presence on earth, 3.) The church, who maintains his bodily presence on earth.

Grief is a blow to the whole person, a traumatic injury.

Have mercy on me, O LORD, for I am in trouble; my eye wastes away with grief, Yes, my soul and my body! For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing Psalm 31: 9-10 NKJV

"Bereavement is an immensely stressful event which can take a huge toll on the body..."
