All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. (Acts 4:32, NIV)
If Jesus is alive, what difference does that make to our lives? How should it change how we live? Is it more of the same, or do we need to change?
I hope you'll be able to join us either in person, or online, as we look at how the the resurrection of Jesus changed how his followers live.
I hope that this email is useful, and that you are able to spend a few minutes at noon each day, as we pray together as a church family. Please do keep sending your prayer suggestions to me, so that we can make sure we are praying around the needs, burdens and encouragements of our whole church family.
“Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. (Mark 16:6, NIV)
What does it mean to follow Jesus? Mark’s gospel ends with an empty tomb, and the promise of Jesus’ resurrection. Mark doesn’t record the women at the tomb meeting Jesus, but they are told to believe his promises and to go and find him just where he said he would be.
What does it mean to follow Jesus? To believe what he said, and to know him.
I hope that you’ll be able to join us in-person or online this Sunday, as celebrate the resurrection of Jesus together.
Wednesday Prayer @ 10am
This Wednesday, at 10am, we'll meet via Zoom for a short time to pray together. We'll take the first few Wednesdays as they come, and see what pattern works for us. I'd love for you to join us via Zoom, please email me for details of how to join.
We'll be no more than 20 minutes, which will give enough time to make a hot drink before joining the Virtual Coffee Shop.
