Life Together

A series of special services for Lent and Easter

We are living in very different times, these times when an authoritative word from God is rejected out of hand by many people. "You have your opinion; I have mine. Don’t impose your views on me." So how do we get into their heads and hearts? "Why should I listen to sermons if there’s nothing in them for me?" So this year we are using a Lenten series that tries to get listeners to sit up and think, "He’s talking about my life! I need to hear this."

"Life Together"is based upon Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s classic book, "Life Together" that describes in challenging ways what it means to be the body of Christ in community.

February 17 (Ash Wednesday): Life’s Better in My Hands!

    Attention getter: Jesus said, "Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit." Hand over your life to someone else? No way!

    Text: 1 Peter 2:20-25

February 24: I’m Being True to Myself!

    Attention getter: Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." But of course, you do know what you are doing!

    Text: 1 Peter 1:22-25

March 3: This Is It???

    Attention getter: Jesus said, "Today you will be with Me in paradise." Huh? Life is short; get the most out of it here-and-now!

    Text: 1 Peter 1:3-5

March 10: How Do You Know Who I Am?

    Attention getter: Jesus said to Mary, "Woman, here is your son," and to John, "Here is your mother." Do you bristle when people make claims on your life?

    Text: 1 Peter 2:9-12

March 17: How Can I Believe in a God Who Would…

    Attention getter: Jesus cried, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me" Is there vindication for believing in God?

    Text: 1 Peter 4:12-25

March 24: I Need This…and This…and This…

    Attention getter: Jesus said, "I thirst." What do you need? Why do you need it?

    Text: 1 Peter 4:1-6
