Today we learn to call ourselves and one another to that hard work of searching ourselves and putting to death that part of our flesh that would keep us from God.
This week we listen to the Christ Hymn and try to live into the pattern of Jesus’ life it sets out. We hope to have this song echo in our lives and shape us more into the shape of the Cross.
This week we learn about what it means to believe and how believing ought to change how we live our lives. We try to imagine how we can go into the world as followers of Christ.
In this first week of Advent we remember how Christ has come and delivered us and how we continue to wait for Christ to come again. We continue to pray for the coming of the Lord.
This week we learn about the Kingdom of God and how it differs from the kingdoms of this world. We learn about how the Good Shepherd will come and bring justice. We also learn how the Gospel isn’t for just individuals, but it is an invitation to join something larger than any individual.
This week we transition from Genesis to Exodus through the story of Moses’ birth. We talk about how, as Christians, we shouldn’t have allegiance with any particular political party, but be solely devoted to the Kingdom of God.
“The Seed of the Kingdom”- This week we look at what the Kingdom of God is and how it comes about through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Today, we pronounce the gospel that Christ is risen and death’s reign is over.
