Ezekiel 37:1-14 and John 11
No matter the depths of our personal or community wildernesses we find ourselves in, life finds a way. The ascension road points us to Jerusalem, the the climax of Jesus’ ministry, together. We know what we’ll find in Jerusalem; the road to the cross, but also the redemption road that invites and brings us all together with the promise of new life.

Psalm 23 and Ephesians 5:8-14
Our relationship with God happens in the present. It is a connection that is lived one day at a time in a sustaining relationship. Write down one concrete way they will “live as children of light” this week—something that produces goodness in their communities, families, churches, or workplaces.
Pastor Angie Colina McNeil
Romans 5:1-11
Suffering is real, and we are not meant to suffer in isolation. Endurance through hardship reveals our character by how we interact with others in the suffering. Hope is built in community through deepening our relationships. Write down what hope they are taking into the week and to keep it on them when things get tough.
Pastor Angie Colina McNeil
John 3:1-17 and Romans 4:1-5, 13-17
We make faith so hard and end up believing we have to earn our way to heaven, but Jeus simply says, “I’ve done the work, you just need to follow.” Every time you catch yourself being self-critical this week, pause and speak a word of kindness to yourself. Let God love you. Notice how this changes your posture first toward yourself and then toward others.
Pastor Angie Colina McNeil
Matthew 4:1-11
When God shows up in our wilderness moments, we are surprised, not because God wasn’t there, but because we finally take time to notice that God was there all along. Practice self-compassion by saying “No” to overworking, no to needing to prove yourself (you’re already enough), and say no to oppressive systems. Say yes to being present in every moment.

Isaiah 58
After talking about worship for four weeks, where is your heart? As we come together as a community to worship God on Sunday mornings, are you thinking about where you are going to lunch, the grocery store list - or glorifying God with the people around you? Our worship is the overflow return of the love we receive from God, we are not supposed to keep it to ourselves. Isaiah 58 breaks out into three sections. The first tells us to genuinely worship, the second what our actions should be as an extension of our worship and the third how God will bless us when we do the first two things.

2 Timothy 3:14-4:5
The word, the teachings, the Scriptures are meant to guide and build up. The Holy Scripture is at the HEART of our discipleship (Wesleyan Quadrilateral). Join a Sunday school class, join the Tuesday 2 pm or Thursday 6 pm Bible Study. If you can’t do either, get a Bible app and start reading the Scriptures. Can’t do that, there will be four passages of Scripture for you to read each week on Wednesdays in the Newsletter.

Genesis 1: 1-3 and Psalm 150
God breathes life into us. Every breath we take is God breathing grace into us, so we naturally breathe out our praise. Stop for 5 minutes each day to pause and breathe in the breath of God. Give thanks to God for the breath of life.
Pastor Angie Colina McNeil
Scripture: Isaiah 6:1-8
We come to worship often with the preconceived notion that worship is for us, but it is for God alone. Bring all of yourself into the worship experience. Come authentically before the Lord.
