PASTOR JEFF'S PONDERINGS

The Walking Dead

5/2/2018

You've probably noticed that pop culture themes come in cycles - including "monsters". A few years ago you saw vampires in numerous books, movies and tv shows. More recently the "monster dejour" has been zombies. I'm waiting for "the Blob" to make a comeback.

In a way, our lives as Jesus-followers could be described as "walking dead". The key to living in freedom is to daily allow your old, self-centered life to be killed off and allow a new, Spirit-filled life to be your reality. As Paul puts it in Galatians 2:20:

My old self has been crucified with Christ. 
It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.
So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God,
​who loved me and gave himself for me.
This Sunday, April 6th, we'll be looking at Galatians 2:11-21 and this key verse. I hope you'll be able to join us.

Saturday, May 5th
9-4 at CCC
We'll be collecting items for the sale this week - you can drop them off in the Fellowship Hall (no clothing, please).

We could also use people to help sort items on Friday afternoon.


Thanks for your help in sending our students to the CHIC Conference this July!
