Coming Alive

Friends, this Sunday, we gather to reflect on our true identity as articulated in the baptism of Jesus.This is an invitation to be secure in God.

We gather to reflect on the story of Ezekiel and the valley of dry bones. We are put in valleys to impact them with the power of God. This is an invitation to be bearers of the work of resurrection

We reflect on the power of God that calls us out of the dead. This is an invitation to know and trust the God who moves powerfully in our lives and our world.

Christ is Risen,

He is risen indeed!

We begin a series of conversations for the called Arise! We will be exploring how God has always been on the work of resurrection - breathing new life where there is none

How is it we can let Jesus free us from our need for certainty to a life that is more open to mystery and waiting!?

Where are you in this story?

Are you with the mourning crowd or the hope-filled one?

What part of your heart has become hard in response to pain?

Invite Jesus to touch it.

Where do you need to stop and show compassion today?

Pay attention to who is near the “gate” in your life.

As we continue with the Lent Series Yes Lord, on this sunday we reflect on Jesus as the Lord of slowness, pausing and retreating to quite places to commune with God.

Key Scripture is Matthew 11:28-30.

Today we look at Lord of Abundance. Our scripture is a familiar passage. Today’s scripture reading comes from John 2:1-12 Stand for the reading of the word.

The Lord of the Present says to you and I, behold I am doing a new thing, here and now, say Yes to me by leaving your past in it's rightful place.

Simplicity is not about doing less just for the sake of it; rather, it is about intentionally clearing the clutter so that we can center our lives around God's vision.
