We have a few more conversations to cover in the next few Sundays. This week we will be looking at Life giving conversations. That is, conversations that encourage. To encourage someone is to provide courage for them and to speak into their lives the truth and goodness of God. We will be looking through a few Scriptures but will begin in Hebrews 10:24-25, talking about encouragement toward one another.

Plan to stay after the service on Sunday for conversation, coffee & treats!

See you Sunday!

John

• In what ways was Jesus’ trial unfair?

•What made Jesus the perfect substitute for us?

Because we have been forgiven of our sin, we cast aside guilt and shame when we sin and instead repent with assurance that we are always loved and accepted by God

• HEAD: If Jesus suffered without sinning, how are we to try to endure our present sufferings?

• HEART: Knowing Jesus suffered unjustly, how can we thank Him for His desire to do the Father’s will in enduring suffering and dying for us?

• HANDS: Knowing Jesus has taken away our enslavement to sin, with whom can we share this good news for their salvation also?

Choose and make a recipe in which a substitution can be made, such as unsweetened applesauce for vegetable oil in brownies. When the food is ready, lead the family to taste it and discuss whether the new ingredient was a good substitution. Remind kids that Jesus was the perfect substitution for us because He took our punishment and He offers us new life.

“Surely corruption is ingrained in our hearts,

interwoven with our very natures, has sunk

deep into our souls and will never be cured

but by a miracle of grace.”

–Thomas Boston (1676–1732)

As we being another year Reading Scripture Together, we will find out why the generous life is the most fulfilling life through this 28-day study, Together we will explore what living generously looks like as it pertains to our relationships, time, talents, and treasures and discover how God can use our generosity to spread the gospel and change lives.
