Journey Together
Healing Community
In this sermon, Pastor Osheta combines her reflections on a famous Spiritual entitled “There’s a Balm in Gilead” with concluding thoughts on being a Healing Community for our series, Journey Together. She teaches us that in the same way that Jesus is our healing balm, we as a community become a healing balm for one another. Here’s a rendition of There’s a Balm in Gilead:
Contemplate Together
In this message, Pastor T. C. teaches on contemplative prayer. These are practices that engage our imaginations and connect us with Christ spiritually. One form of contemplative prayer is what Pastor Brian Zahnd calls “Sitting with Jesus.”
Praying Together
In this message, Pastor T. C. shares about his journey into understanding prayer as formative and collective. As we continue in the Journey Together series, forming Journey Groups, this will lay an important foundation.
Exploring Scripture Together
One of the reasons why reading Scripture together in community is important is because in it we locate ourselves in the on-going story of God renewing all things. Another reason is that the diversity of the body of Christ helps us to understand the Scriptures from multiple angles, revealing more of the beauty and complexity of the God Scripture reveals.
Community Discernment
Continuing in the “Journey Together” series, in this live message, Pastor T. C. teaches on the topic of “Community Discernment” from Acts 15.
