Previous weeks

Our world looks entirely different than it did a few weeks ago. As we’ve all worked together to curb the spread of this virus, all of our lives have been changed, but not to the same degree. Our most vulnerable neighbours are seeing devastating effects from this unprecedented time, and as we look to the Scriptures this week, let’s take the time to sit in that reality. How did God see those forgotten by society? How did Jesus care for the widows, the orphans, and the foreigners?

Over the last few months, the coronavirus pandemic has disrupted our entire world. Many of us aren’t able to gather with our local church communities, so we wanted to create something that could help. Below you’ll find a BibleProject video, suggested Scripture readings, and some discussion questions to use for yourself or with family and friends. 
 
This week’s video and readings focus on the biblical theme of the Image of God. We’ll consider the portrayal of humans in the Bible as both weak and vulnerable but also capable and called to rule the world on God’s behalf.

Over the last couple months, the coronavirus pandemic has disrupted our entire world. For most of us, this means we can’t gather with our local church community, so here’s something that could help: below you’ll find one of our videos, suggested Scripture readings, and some discussion questions to use for yourself or with family and friends.

The Scripture readings and BibleProject video for this week’s Church at Home will focus on the theme of the Water of Life. We’ll look at moments where God meets his people out in the desert, where all of life’s comforts and securities have been stripped away. These times are scary, but they also hold immense potential for our lives and our values to be transformed by God’s generosity and grace. 

Today, followers of Jesus all over the world are celebrating Easter. While many of us are used to going to church on Resurrection Sunday with masses of other believers, we may find ourselves confined at home this year. This should not deter us from celebrating the good news of Jesus’ life, death and resurrection. Two thousand years ago, Jesus claimed victory over sin and death by rising from the dead. He is our everlasting hope. Even in the midst of trials and trouble, Jesus teaches us to hold on tightly to his victory and celebrate together. As you go into Easter Sunday, know that there are millions of followers of Jesus celebrating his resurrected life today in unison.
