Jesus’ resurrection gives us great hope! But what does that hope look like when we go through difficult struggles? How does having a clear perspective of Jesus’ resurrection help us during those times? And what happens if we lose that perspective?
Jesus’ resurrection has a huge personal impact on our lives. But there’s a lot more going on in the story of Jesus’ resurrection. Today we get to see how Jesus’ resurrection impacts the story of all of history.
What would it have meant for us if Jesus hadn’t risen from the dead? And what does it mean for us because Jesus has risen from the dead?
How would you respond if you saw the resurrected Jesus? How would it change you? In our passage, Paul reveals a little of how those who were witnesses of Jesus’ resurrection were changed.
How does seeing your life clearly from the perspective of the Gospel help you to follow Jesus each day? But what happens when part of that perspective of the Gospel is missing? How does that affect your walk with Jesus, and more importantly your faith in Him?
Sometimes God calls us to do step out on new paths in life that we never expected to walk. Paths that we never expected to go on, or thought we ever were able to go on. When that happens, what is the best way to respond ? What should we focus our thoughts on?
Our missionary to East Asia shares reminds us of the importance of living with the perspective of the immanency of Christ’s return.
What happens when you meet Jesus? In the Christmas story, we can see the response of certain people who got the chance to meet Jesus as a baby.
Within the four Gospels, John tells the Christmas story in a very unique way. He tells the story of Jesus’ birth without ever telling us about Mary, Joseph, the angels, or the shepherds. John tells us the “story behind the story” of Jesus’ birth.
As we gather to worship encourage, strengthen, and build up our brothers and sisters, Paul reminds us of the importance of letting the cohesion of worship display God’s beauty and glory, rather than letting our own self-centered desires muddy up that display of who God is.
