As we continue our study of Mark, we come to amazing stories like this one that teach us the power of trust and generosity.

Prayer is critical to our lives. Here is a prayer that has been shared with many of our house churches, the Wesley Covenant Prayer:

I am no longer my own, but yours. Put me to what you will, place me with whom you will. Put me to doing, put me to suffering. Let me be put to work for you or set aside for you, Praised for you or criticized for you. Let me be full, let me be empty. Let me have all things, let me have nothing. I freely and fully surrender all things to your glory and service. And now, O wonderful and holy God, Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer, you are mine, and I am yours. So be it. And the covenant which I have made on earth, Let it also be made in heaven. Amen.

This week our house churches are beginning their study of the Gospel according to Mark. As we navigate the stories of Jesus's ministry, we remember that the simplest of commands, like "follow me," can also be the most powerful.

A good reminder.

What a weekend! On Saturday, folks from our local house churches gathered for two baptisms, a barbecue, and pool party! We had some great fun, delicious food, and wonderful company. Congrats to Lily and Sam for getting baptized!

We recently mentioned that we are starting a new house church in South Riding in the fall and it looks like we may also start one in Manassas. If you or someone you know lives near one of these two areas and are interested, please reach out! It is our deepest desire to help people center their lives on Christ while building mutual and loving community! Have a great week.

A few weeks ago our house churches began their study of Leviticus. When people think of books of the Bible they want to study, Leviticus doesn't tend to be high on the list. That said, it's helpful to remember a few things: The first five books of the Bible (called the Torah or Pentateuch) are critical in our understanding of God and God's people. They include Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. Second, it's important to remember that Jesus would've been steeped in the story of the Torah as a Rabbi and Teacher. To give a bit more context on Leviticus, the Bible Project's animated overview is fantastic and linked here.

Watch our overview video on the book of Leviticus, which breaks down the literary design of the book and its flow of thought. In Leviticus, Israel’s holy God...

Our prayer lives vary. Sometimes we are eloquent, sometimes we don't have the right words. Pastor Jake shared at a recent house church a prayer he learned from a friend. Sometimes our prayers are simple and to the point!

While each of our house churches do things a bit differently, our rhythm is generally to eat, worship, pray, and share in Communion. While house church is a new thing for most people, many new guests find solace in the familiarity they may experience.

Good News! Revive is starting a new house church in South Riding in the early fall!
