Paul Jon Am I growing in the gospel? Using truth and love in our communication 11 Do not speak evil against one another, brothers and sisters. Whoever speaks evil against another or judges another, speaks evil against the law and judges the law; but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. 12 There is one lawgiver and judge who is able to save and to destroy. So who, then, are you to judge your neighbor? James 4:11-12 (NSRV) But speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, Ephesians 4:15 (NSRV) Not just about vertical relationships (love God) but horizontal relationships (love others) Slander and judgement are interchangeable in James’ language You can speak truth and still be full of slander and judgement How do you know if you have … Continue reading →

Paul Jon 16 “A little while, and you will no longer see me, and again a little while, and you will see me.” 17 Then some of his disciples said to one another, “What does he mean by saying to us, ‘A little while, and you will no longer see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’; and ‘Because I am going to the Father’?” 18 They said, “What does he mean by this ‘a little while’? We do not know what he is talking about.” 19 Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him, so he said to them, “Are you discussing among yourselves what I meant when I said, ‘A little while, and you will no longer see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’? 20 Very truly, I tell you, you will weep and mourn, but the world will … Continue reading →

Paul Maria Prayer for the offering Paul Ed. Note: Just an amazing thought inspired by “love endures forever” about how God was spurned by his lover, but he was the “bigger man” and sacrificed all to win us back. Maria Going to read you some passages Luke 9 where Jesus is determined to go to Jerusalem Right now we’re in the season of Lent 40 days between Ash Wednesday and Easter Sunday Funky Christian math where we skip Sundays A lot of Catholics give up meat, resulting in Fish Fry Fridays Here at The Rock, we’re focusing on the idea of giving things away for the benefit of others Letting our self-deprivation bless others Questions: Who is someone in your life that you would like to see thrive? What is one way that you can bless them and remind them that they are loved? Is there someone you feel God … Continue reading →
