Spring Week 7 The Resilient Church

Hey, Leaders!  This Sunday Scott is going to be speaking about the letter to the church in Ephesus found in the book of Revelation and the fact that the thing that Jesus held against them was that they had lost their first love. As Scott talks about it, he is going to be challenging everyone to make sure they “stand with God more than they stand for God,” and I want to make sure we are clear about that because that is going to be a focus for groups also. The concept is the idea of “being” over “doing”. Often we think God just wants us to do a bunch of things for him, but the truth is that the most important part is seeking to be with him–to long for his presence and to enjoy our relationship with him. The focus will be on being with him and delighting in the relationship rather than trying to take a stance or do things for him. It is going to be a great week, and I am excited to see how God uses it!

Also, as a reminder this is the second-to-last week of our CG spring season, so if you want to make plans for the final week's meeting next week, this is the time to do it. 

Have a great week, here are your resources.
