Episode Summary:
This month, we have been reflecting on the days leading to the crucifixion of Jesus and asking ourselves questions about the journey leading up to those final days. Why do we follow Christ? What happened in the garden of Gethsemane? What about the crucifixion and what do we believe individually about these things? The thought we concluded with was Jesus loves us and gives us hope in the midst of life happening. So, why is there hope? And what does this look like today?
Key Points Covered:
Jesus LOVES us
Defining and reflecting on life as circumstances and situations vs. what God wants and needs me to see
The world view vs. God’s view in how we see ourselves taking on each task
Jesus is our living hope beyond every circumstance that we have measured and attributed so much value to
Leaning onto our hope and faith to persevere
Mentioned Scriptures and Other References:
Colossians 3:1-4, "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affections on things above, not on things on the earth, for ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. Now, when Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then ye also appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory."
Colossians 2:8, "Don't let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ. For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. So you are also complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority."
John 16:33. And Jesus says, "these things I have spoken to you that in me, you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation." He then says, “But be of good cheer. I have overcome the world.”
