Shepherd (Micah 5)
Everyone wants security. Find yours in the Shepherd who will… Stand forever Be stronger than everything Spread everywhere
The Lasting Life
Hearing is not enough. Will you buildwise? Building wise = hearing AND doing what Jesus says; because what Jesus says, goes.
The asking life
Two big things: one about what God is like; one about what we should be like. Our Father gives good gifts to those who ask We should do to others as we would have them do to us Matthew brings these things together, and when they meet there’s something important for us to learn…
The discerning life
What should we do when we spot sin in others? Don’t be a fault finder Do be a mirror user Don’t be a treasure waster When we see ourselves clearly, it helps us see others clearly, too.
The trusting life
Jesus gives us a way out of the worry whirlpool. Have a good look Have a good think Have a good priority When we realise that God is our Provider, Father and King, it frees us to trust Him.
The devoted life
Devoted disciple or hungry hippo? Store stuff higher Give stuff away You can’t serve both God and money – so which is it going to be?
The love life
Being like God means living the love life. When relationships are bad, don’t be normal! When relationships are bad, go above and beyond in… Attitude Action … because that’s what Jesus is like…
The faithful life
If we’re going to be like God when it comes to making promises, we need to be… Fully Faithful Really Reliable. Royal Family Life is the faithful life – because that’s what God is like!
Come & See (John 1)
The radical life
Who deserves to go to hell? Jesus says some shocking things about the seriousness of sin… “Small” sins deserve hell “Secret” sins deserve hell Be radical, not relaxed. Will it be the saw or the clamp?
