Have you ever asked God to tell you where to go and what to do and actually meant it?

This Sunday we’re going to look at Paul’s missionary journey with Timothy to Macedonia all based on a dream that Paul had. We’ll see what God did with that act of faith and consider whether God is asking us today to be living with such selfless abandoned in our day.

Acts 11.1-8

Have you ever been part of a merger? When two organizations or communities join together for a greater purpose it’s fun to watch. Sometimes there is a little friction! That’s what happened when Gentiles began following Jesus along with the already existing Jewish believers. But it was part of God’s amazing plan to show His love and grace to the whole world! Are there lessons for us about welcome and inclusion in this story?

Acts 9.1-18

The most dramatic conversion story is Saul’s. His is the account of God changing both one life and all the history of Christianity. Does someone come to mind that you know is presently going in the opposite direction and you are praying for their turnaround.

Acts 5.27-42

What effect did the resurrection of Jesus have on His followers? In following the lectionary readings from Acts in this season we will have glimpses of the “adventure” that his followers had embarked on. This time we hear the disciples being forbidden to speak any more in “this name.” What will they do?

Mark 11.1-11

Two processions entered Jerusalem on that first Palm Sunday. One was Pilate’s military procession – a demonstration of both Roman imperial power and Roman imperial theology. One was Jesus’ triumphal entry in a demonstration of Kingdom power and theology. As we understand both we find ourselves needing to decide which procession we will join.

Luke 23.34

In the midst of His agony dying on the cross Jesus spoke these astonishing words – “Father forgive them..” As one of the most evil perpetrators of crimes against humanity how should we pray for Vladimir Putin? Should we ask for forgiveness or pray one of the impreccatory psalms for his destruction. Or both?

John 21

John recalls a breakfast that finished with an awkward conversation between friends that resulted in the full restoration of a friendship that had been compromised by one having disappointed the other. Simon knew the difficult subject of his denial would surely be raised but could not have expected the forgiveness that was generously granted.

The Prodigal Son

One of the best known stories of the Bible as told by Jesus, a story of forgiveness and reconciliation – a father extends a welcome home to his wayward son in a heartwarming drama. This carries the authority of a Storyteller who is the actual protagonist!

Mephibosheth

One of the most vivid illustrations of the kindness and love of God is in the story of Mephibosheth and David's kindness to him. In the setting of the king's table we see so many aspects of the covenant relationship God has established with humankind.
