I'm Alive!

I always find it the hardest to blog and stay on top of things when we are traveling in the Summer! Yet, it is always a time of tremendous growth and renewal as well! This Sunday we will be looking at Luke chapter 4 (esp. verses 16-19) which is Jesus opening 'sermon' to his hometown congregation.

Read through Luke, chapter four and consider:
* What did Jesus mean by the kingdom of God? Not only in idealogical form, but also in everyday, real world living when he is using this expression? What things does he want to get across here in his 'first sermon'? Why do you think He chose to begin with this lesson?

It's amazing to me that you are discussing the "Kingdom of God" now. All summer while I was reading the book of Luke with Romanians, I would ask them what is this "Kingdom of God" that Jesus keeps talking about. I received as many answers as people that I asked.

It surprises me that the Christians that I've been around all my life don't talk about this more. Jesus uses this phrase so much and it obviously has the greatest of importance according to the context. I'm excited to hear some great discussion!
