Listening to God Together Text: Acts 9:1-19a Reflection: In Acts 7-8, as Steven was stoned to death, he "looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. Saul, later known as Paul, watched with approval as Steven was killed. Now as Saul,, "still breathing out murderous threats against the Lord's disciples" is on his way to Damascus, he is encountered by Jesus whom Steven had seen. What are some differences between Steven's experience and Saul's? How has the Lord appeared to you? How has it changed your life? Prayer: Lord, show me any new direction you want for my life and for Life in Christ. |

The Times They are a-Changin’—Last Call to Take the Survey!—Calling All Members of Our Church Community! We know that the world is changing around us. What doesn’t change is God’s call for us to be a congregation committed to ministry and mission. Changing times, however, mean that we need to nurture a holy imagination to see our God-given, hope-filled future. To stimulate that holy imagination that leads us into God’s future, we need you! If you haven’t already taken the survey, please click here to access Vibrant Voices. Vibrant Voices asks you to speak into our future by reflecting on your spiritual journey and where we as a community are in ministry and mission. Please take the time to invest in Vibrant Voices—without your voice, we can’t step wisely into these changing times. Everyone 6th grade and up is invited to take the survey. Invitation to Discernment Weekend – Thanks to all who are participating in the 16-day prayer journey and have signed up for our Vibrant Congregation Discernment Weekend on May 6 and 7. We are embarking on a journey to step into Life in Christ’s God-given, hope-filled future. Together we want to listen to the voice of God, the voice of the congregation, and gather insights from leadership and congregation members. |
