Sent FishingOur God is Holy, Holy, Holy- we can't live in his life, unless he makes the impossible possible for us, and in Jesus, he has! Jesus sends those who know the power of his grace to live like Fish Bait- to attract others into the net of his love. Who is the Lord sending you fishing for today?
As we wrap up our focus on our Mission and Values, we need to commit to live them out fully in our lives and our community. This is a call for all the saints and sinners to be "all in!"
While we can see, love, and serve people like Jesus at any time, it takes discernment to know when the time is right to teach someone as Jesus does. How can we grow in teaching others as Jesus does, as the Holy Spirit leads us?
If we see people the way Jesus sees them, we will also want to love and serve them as Jesus does. How Jesus loves and serve people depends on what will help them receive the saving grace he freely gives! How is the Holy Spirit calling you to love and serve others, so they may know Jesus through you?
Jesus had a unique way of seeing people that challenged the norms of his day. How are we called to see people like Jesus sees people today?
A true disciple of Jesus doesn't just act like Jesus; they sound like him, too. In what ways are we called to Speak Jesus so those around us can be drawn to the sound of his voice?
When you hear "imitate Jesus," what images come to mind? Miraculous power? Arguing with Pharisees? Serving others? As we unveil our third of four Formational Values at CGLC (how we become disciples), hear what we mean when we say, "Imitate Jesus."
What does it mean to trust Jesus with everything in your life? It means bringing your whole self to him and holding nothing back from him. But what you get back will be more than you can ever imagine.
You won't follow Jesus if you don't trust him; you won't trust him until you know him- so the first job of a disciple is to know Jesus! We get to know someone by what they say, what they do, through stories of people who know them, and by our own experiences. What helps you know Jesus? In what ways can you grow in knowing Jesus this year?
The Holy Spirit it transforming Community of Grace into a community of disciples on a mission of grace. What does this mean for our future as a congregation? Come and see what the Holy Spirit is revealing to us in our ministry and mission.
