5 Years...

2 Timothy 1.7 (CEB)
God didn't give us a spirit that is timid but one that is powerful, loving, and self-controlled.
 
Discernment is a process in which we intentionally name what/where God is moving and how we might, knowing our gifts and graces, respond faithfully, joyfully, and committedly. Grounded in scripture, prayer, and reflection, we become a community that is purposefully shaped by God.

The Bible study material “A People of Salt & Light: Jesus’ Model for Community” explored various aspects of the Biblical vision for community. I am inviting us to respond a step further and apply Jesus’ teachings to LPCC. Specifically, thinking what God is calling us to in the next 5 years.
​
1. Read: Matthew 5:13-16
2. Answer:
  • What do you think it means to be the “salt of the earth” and the “light of the world?”
  • If a community is dramatically formed by what it does, what are some of the works (what LPCC does) that currently shape our congregation? What kind of witness do these works present to the world?
  • Considering your hopes and dreams for the future, what are some ways that you can envision La Porte Community Church faithfully living for the world?
Please bring your answers with you to Worship next Sunday as we go with Abraham on his next adventure with God no matter the age!
​
Grace and Peace,
Rev. Brian
