JESUS PLUS 2 OR 3
Someone once said, “Where two or three are gathered, there will be two or three opinions.” This weekend's lesson recognizes the reality of human disagreements. Jesus understood that we, as humans, cannot always get along. So, what do we do when conflicts happen? Jesus provides us with a blueprint that helps us see through the eyes of others. This weekend, come and be reminded of the God we serve through His Son, Jesus Christ.

YOU'RE INVITED TO GRIEFSHARE

If you or someone you know is navigating the difficult journey of grieving a loved one, we warmly invite you to join us for GriefShare.

Starting September 15, we’ll hold a 13-week GriefShare session that meets every week from 2–4 pm at Desert Hills Lutheran Church. This is a nurturing space designed to provide encouragement, practical advice, and a sense of hope as you move through your grief.

Experiencing grief can often feel isolating, regardless of when the loss occurred. GriefShare creates a unique opportunity for you to connect with others who truly understand what you're going through. In this welcoming environment, you’ll find comfort, share your experiences, and access valuable resources to help you find your path toward healing.

Led by Chaplain Mark Westrich and our dedicated GriefShare team, we are here to support you during this challenging time. Remember, you don’t have to face grief alone.

If you or someone you care about would benefit from participating in GriefShare, please reach out and join us! Call the church office at 520-648-1633 for more information. We can’t wait to welcome you!

BLESSED THROUGH OBEDIENT GIVING by Ray
“This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him?”
— I John 3:16,17

Pastors were gathered for a time of training and encouragement up in the hills above San Bernardino, CA. I had traveled 90 minutes to attend. Some had traveled farther, and some were from the surrounding area. The speaker of the morning session was introduced and began to speak when I sensed the Lord directing me to write a check to a young and newly assigned pastor named Scott. I looked around, and he was two rows behind me. I had what I thought were some great reasons why the Lord could have another pastor in attendance aid Scott if he had a financial need. The morning went by quickly, and I was just leaving for lunch when I sensed the Lord’s direction again.

I returned from lunch and hoped Scott might have decided to skip the afternoon session, but as I turned around, he was there. So, I pulled out my checkbook and wrote the amount the Lord seemed to impress upon me to give. As the afternoon session ended, I quickly handed the check to Scott and headed home. I was at peace, and I thought that was the end of it.

Two days later, a thank-you letter arrived with a description of the bills they were able to pay with that check. I did not know their needs, but the Lord did and asked me to deliver for Him. I am so grateful for the multiplied blessings from being obedient that Tuesday afternoon.

Journaling:
How have you experienced God’s blessing in your life when you have given obediently? Have you ever seen God’s blessing in the ministry of Desert Hills Lutheran Church when the church has provided for those in need?

Have you considered that the Lord knows how much you can contribute when you see someone in need?

BAFFLED
Last week’s message centered on declaration and understanding. When Jesus asked the disciples who he was, Peter boldly exclaimed, “You are the Messiah!” Jesus praised him for this revelation. Now that the disciples recognized Jesus’ true identity, they could focus on helping Jesus accomplish the mission God had sent Him to complete on Earth. However, there was a big roadblock: the disciples did not understand what that mission entailed. Join us this weekend to hear how Jesus guided them onto the right path.
