"Blessed and Sent"  |

 

22 “And now I am on my way to Jerusalem, compelled by the Spirit, not knowing what I will encounter there, 23 except that in every town the Holy Spirit warns me that chains and afflictions are waiting for me. 24 But I consider my life of no value to myself; my purpose is to finish my course and the ministry I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of God’s grace.
- Acts 20:22-24

"Rest"  
Luke 10:38-42, Genesis 2:1-3, Galatians 4:7  

God designed us to need rest, and so it is essential to our physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Rest allows us to re-center our identity from what we do to who we are, heirs in Christ, children of God.

"Salt and Light"  
Matthew 5:13-16  

The essence of the command to be salt in light is to being, not doing. God aims to change our essence, not just our behavior.

"The sacred and the secular"  

"Everyone wants to change the world, but no one wants to do the dishes". This past sunday, we kicked off our 'Faith and Work' series and we looked at how God created and uses our work. Now, whatever it is you do all day long isn’t something outside of Jesus’ calling on your life—it’s right at the center of it.
