[Wednesday] Courtyard- Places of the Passion - 4
4th Wednesday in lent 2021: Courtyard
What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Who Carried - All Nations
Jesus says all through the gospel to take up your cross. He was going to die but rise again and we should take up his cross. But after he was arrested, all his friends and followers were nowhere to be found to take up his cross. So then who carried it?
Questions for the Week
Have you ever given up something in lent to help follow Jesus? What did that experience teach you?
Read Matthew 16:21-28. What does it look like to pick up your cross, denying yourself and following Jesus? How successful were the disciples at doing this?
Read Matthew 27:31-33. This is the first and only time Simon the Cyrene is mentioned in Matthew. Where do you think the disciples were at this time?
If you would have been a disciple how would you have felt to see someone else carrying the cross for Jesus?
How does Jesus ultimately carry the cross for the disciples and for you? What does this mean for your faith?

Look at the stark separation, a clear delineation showing clear cultural lines of separation between people. But Jesus crosses this separation to bring healing, not just to the servant, but to all nations.

Read Matthew 8:5-13. What type of cultural distance would there have been between this Roman soldier and the followers of Jesus?
How does Jesus bridge the gap between himself and the centurion (soldier)?
What are some ways to show someone that Jesus is with them in tough times?

[Wednesday] Mount of Olives - Places of the Passion - 2
2nd Wednesday in lent 2021: Mount of Olives
What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Crumbs and Crosses - All Nations
She is unworthy but is wanting something from Jesus. Will she fight for what she wants, or will she show us that the kingdom of God is made up of mustard seeds, crumbs, and crosses?
Questions for the Week
Describe a time when a stereotype might cause you to think poorly of someone.
Read Mark 7:24-30. Knowing that the Syrophoenician woman is from the same place as Jezebel (an evil person from the Old Testament, 1 Kings 16), what might the disciples think about this outsider to the faith?
How does she respond to Jesus? How can you see her humility?
What are some opportunities for you to be the hands and feet of Jesus that involve humble service towards your neighbor?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Blessed Curse - All Nations
They came to the new world to live the dream, to get away from all that would hold them down, away from all the sinful people who would drag us to hell. But what happens when a cross shows up in the middle of your dream?
Questions for the Week
Describe a time when you saw God’s love for someone different than you.
Read Galatians 3:7-14. What do you think the works of the law are today that we hold onto, looking for our own righteousness?
According to Galatians 3, what does Jesus do for us in those times when we seem to be self-righteous?
How can experiencing God’s grace in a time when you messed up, help you love others?

Ash Wednesday we ponder the question of how we got here. What have we done to outselves. This day invites us to sit in dust and ashes and seek repentance.
[Sunday] Breaking Dysfunction - Faith and Family Dysfunction
There is always forgiveness. But what happens when someone does something so bad that it's impossible to forget. How do you break that hurt that distrust. Joseph’s brothers try to kill him and he was taken from his family for the rest of his life. How do they break the dysfunction?
Questions for the Week
Describe something or someone you have had to forgive?
Read Genesis 50:15-21. What causes Joesph’s brothers to doubt his forgiveness?
When someone has forgiven you, what causes you to doubt that forgiveness?
Read Romans 8:26-30. How can you have confidence in the forgiveness Jesus has given to you?
What actions can you take to show others that you’ve truly forgiven them?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Self Differentiation- Faith and Family Dysfunction
If you are in Christ; your identity is not in what you’ve done, how you feel, or how others think of you. These things do not define you. Your identity is made in the image and likeness of God. Because of Jesus’ work on the cross, God sees you as His precious child, holy and dearly loved. Receive your identity, instead of trying to achieve it.
Questions for the Week
When is a time you gave into peer pressure and lacked self-differentiation in a relationship in your life? What was the result?
Read Genesis 37:12-36. How do Joseph's brothers fail to self-differentiate? What result does that have?
Share a time when you know that Jesus was able to stop and self-differentiate? What does that mean for you?
There are many powerful voices that guide us from places like the TV, radio, print, and other social organizations. How can you make sure you think things through for yourself and like how Christ would have you do in those situations?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Bitterness - Faith and Family Dysfunction
Jacob was always a fighter. He fought for everything and left an angry wake behind him. But when he was left all alone, his bitterness and the thought of sure death just around the corner, he was able to get relief from the bitterness and havoc.

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Triangles - Faith and Family Dysfunction
Remember that time when you asked your mom for something and she denied your request? Then you went straight to your dad and asked him. Yeah, that's making a triangle. It’s bad, but we do that all the time, and yet it needs to stop.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
Describe a time when you were hurt by someone triangulating or gossiping about you.
Read Genesis 27. How does Rebecca triangulate to get her way? What effect does this have on the relationships in her family?
Read Matthew 18:15-20. What does Jesus call us to do when we have a problem with someone? What promise does he make to us?
Who do you need to go to directly this week to be reconciled?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Named Anxiety - Faith and Family Dysfunction
Abraham looks at God's promises to him and tries to make them happen for himself. Oh, the havoc caused by not trusting God and who you really are! But God still brings peace with his promises.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
What situations have brought you anxiety? How have you handled them?
Read Genesis 16. How does Abram and Sarai handle the anxiety about not being able to conceive a son that was promised to them by God?
In what ways have you tried to control things rather than trusting God? How has that added to your anxiety?
Genesis 17:1-6, 15-21. How does God remind Abram what his identity is?
How can remembering your identity as a child of God, a Christian or “little Christ,” bring you peace?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] No Excuses - Faith and Family Dysfunction
Anxiety, pitting our family and friends against each other, group think, and bitterness - these all take life away from us and can cause us to live in despair. But when we look through the main story of Scripture, we see a family that is extremely dysfunctional, and yet God never leaves them, and we know them as the patriarchs.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
What do you think causes dysfunction in a family?
Read Romans 3:23. What does this tell us about our role in dysfunction?
Read Romans 4. Specifically look at verses 18-22. How does God show His promise to Abraham, despite Abraham’s weakness?
How have you seen God work in the midst of people’s dysfunction? How has God been faithful to his promises to you?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] - Epiphany - Nostalgia
Look, they are following the light to salvation. And as they bring their gifts, these Gentiles find they have been given the greatest gift of all.
What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] He Is Here- Nostalgia
God told him he would see the Messiah. Which young boy would it be? But when the young family walked in there was no doubt: He is here.
What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Wonderful Mess - Nostalgia
It was supposed to be the best. God was coming into the world. Jimmy Stewart was the lead. But it was all a mess from accusations of cheating to script rewrites. The whole thing looks unimportant. But it becomes one of the most beloved stories of all time.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
What is the most iconic Christmas movie to you? Why?
Read Matthew 1:18-25. What are the two names given to Jesus? How do these names help us better understand Christmas?
What do these names teach you about your greatest needs?
Think of a mess that you are in or someone you love is in. How can you remind yourself or them, that Jesus is Immanuel (God with us)?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Someone Greater - Nostalgia
King Solomon had it all. Incredible wisdom, amazing riches, and he was even tall. Even queens from far off lands came to check on all his plans. But it all fell apart, like the Grinch stole his heart. And here we sit as if for a waiter, contemplating if there really is someone greater.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
What is your favorite children’s Christmas book that you’ve read? Why?
Read 1 Kings 11:1-10. Why do you think Solomon ends so badly?
What are the temptations in your life that cause you to not “keep Christ in Christmas?”
Read Matthew 12:42. What does it mean when Jesus says there is something greater than Soloman?

What Had happened at Grace this week.
[Sunday] Expanding Christmas - Nostalgia
The Gospel writer Matthew is starting small and common, the son of Abraham. But he quickly expands who is invited to the table to the poor, the tax collectors, and even those terrible Gentiles. It kinda reminds me of the Griswald’s Christmas.
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
When you think of family gatherings around the holidays, do you prefer smaller gatherings or gatherings where everyone in the family is invited? Why?
Read Genesis 22. Why do you think it would be difficult for Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, the son of the promise?
Read Hebrews 11:17-19. How do you see Jesus in this story of the sacrifice of Issac?
In difficult times, where have you seen God be faithful to his promise for you?
