Live the Word to Sunday

Chuck — Mon, 13 Dec 2010 17:29:49 +0000

Look here every week to see the scriptures that will be part of this coming Sunday's worship service. Most Christian churches follow a three year cycle through the bible called the Common Lectionary. Each week one selection each is offered from the Old Testament (the Torah, prophets, etc), wisdom literature (Psalms, Songs of Solomon, etc) , Gospels (Mathew, Mark, Luke or John) and Epistles (letters from Paul, James, Timothy, etc). It is likely that you will hear the preacher offer these readings the following Sunday. We will post the scriptures from the bible and you may participate by posting or following the postings offered by others including context (what was going on back in the biblical day), cross references, reflections, witnessing or questions. Our hope is that by Sunday you would have read the word, pondered it and when you hear the word spoken in church it will resonate all the more. May the Holy Spirit guide us and may His word be truly written on your heart.
