Vine Worship at Kingwood Methodist

Today, we are talking about peace. Peace is more than just an arbitrary "inner calm," or a "good vibe." Biblical peace is a life fully in balance. However the place that we can gain this peace is not in a meditation schedule or a breathing routine, but by asking the Lord to release peace over our life! Peace does a new thing in our soul that we can't conjure up on our own. 

In the natural world, when there is a vacuum, it is filled by its surroundings. As we take this illustration into account, two questions appear, Are you creating space in your life to fill it with the Hope of Christ? And, How faithful have we been to the idea that we are God's chosen people, filled with hope through joyful obedience? May we be filled with the hope of Christ!

This week we explore God's wisdom. God uses the foolish/weak/poor things of this world as instruments of his healing and grace. Even in his time, Jesus challenged the concept of what Kingship looked like. How are you challenging yourself to grow in the counter-cultural nature of Christ's Wisdom?

God calls us to seek his kingdom. When we respond to God's love and grace through obedience, we are able to leave our worries and anxieties behind. 

With the election coming up this week what are we proclaiming when we say Christ is king. Have we really put our hope in Jesus regardless of a political outcome? Or is our hope really based on who the president is?

As we look at answering the question Jesus asks "Who do you say that I am?" How do we answer that? What does it look like to amplify our response to that question in a world that answers that question differently. 

Romans 12 instructs us followers of Christ to be transformed by Christ not conformed to the patterns of this world in which we live. What ways is your heart fully conformed to the world? And where has God begun to transform your heart?

What does it mean that God calls us? In a world that seems like it is filled with purposelessness, let’s discover how God's call speaks into the purposeless of our lives. 

Wherever we look during this pandemic, it seems as if so much is spinning out of control, and especially out of our control. This week we explore the Christian claim that God is in control and hear how that might impact the way we live and love one another.

Justice is important to the heart of God. In a society that amplifies injustice, how can we as Christians live a life that is filled with justice?
