Strangers in a Strange Land

October 4, 2015 to November 29, 2015

 

 

Called to Be a Stranger

Our tendency is to fit in. What happens when we are forced to stand out? A Jesus way of life is different way of living than those who are not followers of Jesus. We can’t be come a citizen of heaven and maintain our earthly citizenship.

Strange Marriage

How do husbands and wives live together and experience a satisfying and fulfilling marriage? In 1 Peter 3:1-12, God gives us a very clear answer to this question, and it’s very different from what culture is telling us. We are called to a strange marriage.

Strange Peace

We often feel pulled into relying on our control to offer instead of trusting God’s security. But our peace in Christ can not only calm our own emotions, but also be an explanation of the gospel for others.

Strange Urgency

We often live our lives waiting for the next thing without urgency. But the best way to live our lives is in expectation of seeing Jesus, which will allow us to thrive through life’s difficulties.
