What does imagining Jesus in the temple tell us about his heart?

Topic of Conversation:

Join this conversation about Jesus in the womb. Steve Schroeder (executive pastor) and Dan Elliott (care pastor) join Yvonne Biel (formation pastor) for the first time to discuss the phenomenon of Jesus learning under the Jewish teachers in Jerusalem. Imagine what Jesus might have been learning and why placing himself under the authority of others tells us about his character.

Guided Practice: 

Allow yourself to relate to this story in Luke 2:41-52. Let it come alive and consider Jesus' submissive posture toward the religious leaders and toward his parents.

Can imagining Jesus in the womb expand your love for him?

Topic of Conversation:

Join this conversation about Jesus in the womb. Jessica Rust (administrative staff) and Lauren Floyd (south resident) join Yvonne Biel (formation pastor) for the first time to discuss the significance of Jesus dwelling in Mary's womb. Since at the moment of recording these women are carrying little ones, they offer great insight as Jesus draws close.

Guided Practice: 

Try a practice of drawing three images as if you are playing a game of Pictionary: 1) womb 2) fetus 3) Jesus. No need to make it polished or pretty but take the chance to consider Jesus in all three images. How does it feel to imagine Jesus in each of these images?

How would you describe the way and heart of Jesus?

Topic of Conversation:

Aaron Bjorklund (worship pastor) and Yvonne Biel (formations pastor) tease out some of the tension around how we might interpret the way of Jesus. They discuss ways Christians have twisted the way of Jesus into religious checklists or a formula to become aa good person but what we mean at South Fellowship is having a relationship with Jesus and learning his gentle way of sacrificial love - full of grace and truth.

Guided Practice: 

Connect with Jesus through this Reflective Exercise grounded in John 1:14. What do you think of when you hear the words "the way of Jesus"? What do you believe Jesus' heart is for you? What do you imagine is Jesus' expression toward you today?

Be prepared to hear both significant and some not-so-serious stories.
