Pastor Glen gives us a flyover of our summer series Jesus Code to answer the question that should impact us today.

Study Questions
- Glen reminded us that every culture has implicit rules, that is, rules that don’t need to be spoken because we all know them. Name a time, either at work, with friends, or with in-laws, when you broke an unspoken rule. How does it make you feel when you cross the line? Does our church have any unspoken rules?
- We must constantly choose to be shaped by the Bible or else we will drift into our culture’s narrative, a narrative in which we don’t belong. What does it look like in your daily life to choose God’s way instead of culture’s way? What practices help cement us in the Bible’s story?
- The Bible is a six act play and we are in the Fifth act. The acts are, Creation, Fall, Israel, Jesus, Church, and Eternity. We all have a role to play in God’s big narrative. What gifts and talents has God given you? How are you using them to build up the church?
- There are things that we add to our lives that don’t belong. Name some things that don’t belong in the life of a believer and explain why we include them anyways. What would we have to change to lessen the power of temptation to follow culture?
