[Sunday] Just a Taste - God's Greater Story - Romans 14
We are getting just a taste of the love of God here at the end of Romans. While we all are worried about what people are tasting or not, we see that God’s love flows to each of us. Let go with God’s flow.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]

What is God’s greater story? What have you learned in this series?
Read Romans 14:1- 15:7. What are the key themes that jump out to you as you read this?
According to Paul’s definition, who would you consider to be a weak Christian today? According to this section of Romans, how should your attitude change towards them?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Under Roman Roads - God's Greater Story - Romans 13
There they were, placing another Christian friend in the catacombs under the roads of Rome. They were facing persecution from all sides, and things looked bleak. They then looked at the new painting on the wall. It was Jesus the savant of all, encouraging them, too, to be servants of all.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
What do you think makes a good political leader?
Read Romans 13:1-14. How does Paul offer a different perspective of our leaders? Who ultimately is in charge?
What does knowing that “there is no authority except from God and those that exist have been instituted by God” (Romans 13:1b) enable you to do?
What would the world look like if Chrstians focused more on loving our neighbors, one on one, rather than fighting over politics?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Molded - God's Greater Story - Romans 12
The power of the world is chiseled in stone, but the power of God is molded in flesh and blood. Let us pray we don’t seek our hope in cold, chiseled stone, but may the Spirit guide and mold us to be servants of God’s creation.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
Describe a time when someone embraced you with warmth and love.
Read Romans 12:9-21. Compare and contrast Paul’s words with where we typically find power in the world.
Share some times when Jesus embodies the attitude Paul describes in Scripture. How has he shown you this attitude?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Grafted- God's Greater Story - Romans 11
The story is backwards. Usually the stump is wild and the grafted branches are the good, fruit-bearing kind. But here, the wild branches (usually less fruitful) are the ones which have been grafted in. Paul is telling us, the wild ones, to be humble because we have been grafted into the original tree of promise.

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Perspective - God's Greater Story - Romans 10
Salvador Dali’s Christ of St. John of the Cross was almost completely destroyed when a man claimed it desecrated Christ and His image. What would enrage someone to destroy a work of art like that? Was it someone hostile to the faith? Nope, it was a matter of perspective.
Service [above] Sermon [under]
Questions for the Week
What is something that has changed your perspective over the years?
Read Romans 10:1-4. What were the Jews having zeal for? Do you have a similar zeal?
Read Romans 10:5-13. Who can be saved?
Try to look at the world through God's eyes. He loves us all. See the world through a loving Father’s perspective. Does it change how you look at those around you?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Humble Servant - God's Greater Story - Romans 9
Why are God’s original people, who are in the line of their father Israel, being left behind? This is an extremely hard question, and I think we find the answer, not in the search for power, but in being a humble servant.
Service [above] Sermon [under]
Questions for the Week
Describe a time when you saw someone look down on someone else because they were different.
Read Romans 9:1-5. Why is Paul’s heart so broken?
Read Romans 9:6-13. According to Paul, what makes us God’s children?
How does God’s mercy towards you in making you a child of his promise affect how you relate to those who are different than you?

[Sunday] Overwhelm - God's Greater Story - Romans 8:31-39
The world just feels overwhelming. From the virus, politics, and loss of security it can feel like it is just too much. That right there is what the author Paul wants us to see, that no matter what, God's love is just as overwhelming, but in a good way.
Service [above] Sermon [under]
Questions for the Week
Describe a time you experienced God’s love when you were overwhelmed.
Read Romans 8:28-39. Paul mentioned trial and tribulation and many others things that you might think would separate you from God. What are some things you experience in your life, that you feel could separate you from God and hope?
According to Paul, who or what is able to separate us from the love of God?

PLEASE CALL PEOPLE I realize I take for granted that people just come to the church on a regular basis. So that we all don’t descend into madness, let’s call and talk to each other regularly. Phone directories are available at the church for your convenience.
COMMUNION ON WEDNESDAY: If you, or someone you know, would like to celebrate Holy Communion but prefer a small group or unable to attend Sunday service, Pastor Cris has set aside Wednesday’s to celebrate the meal in small/family groups. Please come by on Wednesday at: 11:00, 11:20, 11:40 or 12:00 (noon) and partake of this wonderful meal.
SEE YOUR GRACE FAMILY ON ZOOM! Pastor and Coli will be hosting Zoom to Coffee at NOON on Sunday for those who are worshipping at home, or in person, who would like to join in fellowship “virtually” to see and chat with Grace members and friends safely. All are welcome!
BIBLE STUDY FOR ALL Pastor Cris is conducting a “live” Bible study online for you to participate in on Thursdays at 11:00 AM. Directions for participating can be found on the web page www.GracelutheranPSL.com. Check it out, and if you need assistance, please call the phone number listed.

Thank you for your past and continual prayers and financial support to Grace and your community.

[Sunday] Stuck in the Stone - God's Greater Story - Romans 8b
Have you ever felt stuck? Stuck inside because of a virus? Stuck at a job? Stuck in a relationship? Many times we groan because we are yearning for freedom from the stone we are stuck in. What can we look to for true freedom?

Read Romans 8:18-30. What does Paul say about our present sufferings?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Slave to Son- God's Greater Story - Romans 8
Paul makes a curious point prior to chapter 8 here. He says we are no longer a slave to sin but a slave to Christ. But where is the freedom in that? It sounds like we have exchanged one slavery for another, but that was just a stopgap point. For Paul keeps moving forward and says we are not a slave to have been made into a child of God.
Service [above] Sermon [under]
Questions for the Week
Describe a time from your childhood where you had to be forgiven by a parental figure. What did that mean to you?
Read Romans 8:12-17. In the previous chapter Paul has talked about how we are slaves to righteousness. He has now progressed his idea to say that we are free. What illustration does Paul use to describe what this freedom looks like?
According to Paul, how do we become sons (and daughters) of God?
Paint a picture with your words of what it looks like for us to live as family members of God?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Deliverance- God's Greater Story - Romans 7
Life can be full of struggle. In the midst of such struggle we are trying to figure out how we should act that would be the best. But many times we end up doing and participating in the very things we hate. Who will deliver us from this struggle?
Service [above] Sermon [under]
Questions for the Week
Share a time when you tried to do the right thing, but it ended up doing the wrong thing?
Read Romans 7:14-25. Does knowing the right thing to do enable Paul to actually do the right thing? Why or why not?
How is your struggle with trying to do good, similar to Paul’s struggle? What prevents you from doing good all the time?
As we’re trapped in our sin, it can seem hopeless. Where does Paul look to for deliverance and hope?

[Sunday] - Resurrection of Van Gogh- God's Greater Story - Romans 7
The famous artist is troubled. Stuck in an asylum for over a year, all he can do is paint what he can see. One day his brother sends him a picture from Rembrandt, of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. Van Gogh sees life once again.
Service [above] Sermon [under]

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] - Reflection - God's Greater Story - Romans 6
When we are looking at participating in a greater story, we usually desire to neglect and hide our weaknesses. However, we see that we are baptized into Christ’s death and participate in his resurrection. Wait, what? Baptized into death? How is this the greater story?
Service [above] Sermon [under]

Read Romans 6:1-14. What is the relationship between grace and sin?

The Kingdom of God is right here: The lowly manger being lauded by well traveled kings; wisdom from on high unearthing the way of love; the blind seeing the light radiating from a cold tomb. It's backwards. It's beautiful. It's the Kingdom way.
