Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Anger & Disputes, Revenge & Enemies” Texts – Matthew 5:21-26; 5:38-48 Is Jesus your Saviour? Is he your Teacher? Is he your Master? How about your God? If you, like me, answer ‘yes’ to all the above, we may have a little trouble with today’s study. If he’s all of those things, we need to do as he says! But be warned, if you thought Jesus’ teaching on the Beatitudes was challenging, his instructions concerning anger, disputes, revenge and enemies is likely to strike a little too close for comfort for many of us. Jesus provides us with some very blunt directions, not only for how we are to behave but also concerning our ‘emotional’ responses to others.

Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Fulfillment of the Law” Texts – Matthew 5:17-20; 22:36-40; Galatians 5:1: Romans 5:20; 6:1-2; 14:14-18 Last week, we began our focus on Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount by considering the upside-down values he wants his followers to embody in order that we can truly be representatives of his—adding God-seasoning and God-colour to our world in need of both—rather than simply adding to the noise by living by the world’s standards.

HOPE CHAPEL - Sunday, May 1, 2022 Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Beatitudes: Upside-Down Values” Texts – Matthew 5:3-12 Our theme for 2022 is “Doing Life with Jesus.” What does it look like to ‘go deep and grow strong’ in him as a follower of Christ? So far, we’ve covered the life of Jesus as God-boy and God-man. We’ve examined his ministry—how he began, the disciples he chose and some of his miracles. We’ve discovered his compassion and care for the outcasts and those considered unworthy, and of course the rejection he faced by those who should have been the first to recognize him. We’ve considered Jesus’ power in creating new eyes and raising the dead. We have also been challenged to consider the cost of following him as his disciples and what it means to ‘remain in him.’ HOPE CHAPEL - Sunday, April 24, 2022Youtube link... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCNqnhUmlRI
Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Remaining in Jesus” Texts – John 15:1-17 As I was preparing for this week’s lesson, I came across a poem I wanted to share. “Joy” by Juliet Fay Joy seeps into my bones flooding the marrow tickling the cells until a slow wide smile spreads across my face It’s a picture I think that can easily translate into the life of those who are connected to Jesus. When we remain in him, his life infuses our own…right down to our spirit’s ‘molecular level’—similar to our physical body’s bone, marrow and cells...changing us…showing up in our lives for all to see, like a smile on one’s face.

Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Ascending as God” – Easter Sunday Texts – Matthew 26-28; Luke 24; Psalm 22:1-18; Acts 1 While Jesus lived on Earth as one of us, he demonstrated that he was more than just a human through his miracles, the authority of his teaching and even his open declaration that he was the Son of God, the long-awaited Messiah. But many refused his words despite the evidence. How could this man be more than merely human? HOPE CHAPEL - Sunday, April 10, 2022Youtube link... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey7Qgk6L8RE
Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Claiming Kingship” – Palm Sunday Texts – Matthew 21:1-11; Zechariah 9:9-17; John 4:39-42; Luke 9:51-56 Today is known as Palm Sunday. What is the significance of Palm Sunday? Jesus declared himself the King, the long-awaited Messiah, and the crowds acknowledged him with enthusiasm. _____________________________ HOPE CHAPEL - Sunday, April 3, 2022YouTube link... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM5MpXdthIk
Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Jesus’ Invitation to Follow” Texts – Matthew 19:16-23; Luke 14:25-33; Matthew 16:24-27 We’ve talked a lot this year about being a follower of Jesus, literally his disciples. So here’s your chance to shine…What does it mean to follow Jesus? Today, we’re going to examine what it means to follow Jesus from his perspective.

Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Jesus’ Power Over Death” Texts – John 11:1-45, 53, 12:9-11 Today, we’re going to be examining the miracle that Jesus performed, that above all others, set him squarely in the crosshairs of the religious leaders…that of raising Lazarus from the dead.

Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Jesus’ Power to Create” Texts – John 9 Can you think of some ways that God’s nature and humanity’s are not the same? [God cannot die; people do. God cannot sin; people can. God is omnipresent, which means God is everywhere all at once; but we can’t do that--we’re stuck to being in one place at a time.] HOPE CHAPEL - Sunday, February 27, 2022Youtube link... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uGKwqvfXFA
Teaching Series - “Doing Life with Jesus" Weekly Topic - “Jesus & the Sabbath” Texts – Exodus 20, Colossians 2:16-17, Romans 14:4-6, 2 Thessalonians 2:15, Matthew 12:1-8, Luke 13:10-21, Luke 6:6-11 I must confess at the outset, as I once again found myself in the office finishing my preparations for Sunday on my day off, that my observance of ‘Sabbath’ needs some work. However, before any of us can improve in this area, I would like to challenge us today to consider afresh what ‘Sabbath’ is and what it is not, what it was meant for and examine from Jesus’ life how to observe and experience Sabbath in our own. |
