This message unpacks the concept of finishing well as the year comes to an end and asks, How do you want to be remembered? When you started the race with Christ, you knew that somewhere out there was a finish line. What will your Departure, Legacy and Reward be.
The message focus is on what it means to be an authentic Christian community of Christ-like people in our connectedness together and care for one another.
We all encounter them. They come at those times that are most inconvenient, usually unexpected, and unwelcome. They are interruptions. This morning we will explore how they will come, how will we respond and what will we learn from His whispers to us in the process.
We have all had that moment where we forget the rest of our story mid-sentence, or we cant remember why we called someone while the phone was ringing. This kind of drift with our memories also happens in organizations. This week we are looking at the importance of staying on mission.
The Father sent Jesus to live and die and be raised from the dead to establish His church as the vehicle to rescue and restore people and ultimately all of creation. Jesus has sent us to carry on His mission by enjoying constant fellowship with the Father, Son, and Spirit, and intentionally pursuing His mission of renewal by making disciples who make disciples.
This morning as we gather to celebrate the manner that Jesus rose from the dead we will consider some of our own feelings about death and the way Jesus helps us to overcome death.
This week we will consider the three different entries into Jerusalem taking place on Palm Sunday, and the way that helps us to reflect on what kind of king we serve in Jesus.
Every year as the weather warms up we spend time thinking about all of the Spring Cleaning projects that need to happen to get our house in order. In the same way, we need to become people that regularly go through the practice of examining our lives to identify things that need to change in order to live in a manner that is more pleasing to God.
