NEW SERMON SERIES CONCLUDES SUNDAY

The Upside-Down Kingdom
The tenth chapter of Mark is a critical transition between the transfiguration of Jesus and the triumphal entry into Jerusalem. After Peter named Jesus as the Christ, the Son of the living God, at the transfiguration, Jesus elaborated on what following him would require. This ensuing journey toward Jerusalem contains a collection of teachings about the nature of true discipleship. It is based on a life contrary to the perspectives and priorities of the world and is more in line with the kingdom of God. In a sense, the values of the kingdom seek to turn the world upside down. Each of these texts reveals a different way that God inverts the culture at large and requires us to live a life “upside down.”

Oct 24: “Where the Blind Can See” (Mark 10:46-52)

Tell what the sermon was about this morning in a single sentence.

09/16/2021

From Sunday’s Sermon:
“One of the things we may not be paying attention to is every person has been made in the image of God. (Though many will not act like it or suppress this truth in their lives.) Because we have all been made in the image of God, when we speak ill against someone or curse or tear someone down, we are doing that same thing to God. How we interact and speak with others is how we are showing God what we really believe about him: meaning we end up praising God and cursing/degrading God with the same mouth.

Part of being made holy, being re-made in the image of Jesus Christ, is allowing God to make our thoughts, words, and actions line up ALL THE TIME. This is how the kingdom of God will be known and shown.”

From Sunday’s Sermon:
“James speaks about the tongue as a great evil that no man can tame. If we think about it, our tongue (or words) actually steer and direct the kind of life we’re going to have. Do we know how when we “pre-frame” situations or people, we make it a self- fulfilling prophesy? What do I mean?

We can go into a situation thinking everything will go bad. We can say conversations are going to be wrong. We can make us be in a bad mood wherever we are simply because of what we tell ourselves.

But what if we practiced “reframing”? This is when we take our negative thoughts and make them captive and obedient to Jesus Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:4-5). How can we do this? We realize we are not speaking, or thinking, from the Holy Spirit and we ask God to take and transform our thinking to give us the mind of Christ.”

Working on Sunday’s sermon and I’d love to hear what you have to say.

09/14/2021

From Sunday’s Sermon:
“Words are very powerful in our everyday lives. Words have the ability to make us laugh, make us feel powerful, encourage us. Words can even make us feel bad, low. What we say, how we say it are more important than we realize.

People in positions of teachers, preachers, leaders have an even greater responsibility for their choice of words. That’s why James says “not many of you should become teachers.” Now this can seem kinda harsh, but the reality is it takes a lot to control what we say.”
