Weekly Update June 8

Young adults ages 18-25, next week (June 15) we start a second module of DISCIPLE, this one focusing on life in the kingdom. You can join either the Tuesday/Friday morning or the Friday evening group. You can join whether or not you were with us for the first module. Sign up online.

The past ten days have been particularly heavy for us globally as, in the midst of coronavirus, we’ve witnessed the slow killing of an African-American man begging for breath, and seen grief and anger unleash more violence. It’s a situation so fraught with emotion and despair that it’s hard to find words to speak about it. But it matters that we as a church do speak about it, and it matters how we speak about it.

Listen in as Lynnita talks about the costly love that is needed now more than ever.

Jesus’ baptism reveals the true heart of baptism: God’s desire to bless and express His delight. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the start of the Kingdom. Ordinary women and men were now filled with the Spirit of Jesus to continue on the ministry Jesus started.

Luke 3:21-22 -At Jesus’ baptism, the Father said, “You’re my son. I love you. I’m proud of you.” As Christians, our baptism is a sign that we are in Christ, that what is true about him is true about us, and that the Father’s blessing now defines us.

Luke 3:1-20 - The first mention of baptism in the Bible begins with John. John was the cousin of Jesus and also His opening act. John called the people of his day to "Get Ready."
