What does it mean to be more like Jesus? Ultimately, that is the goal of following him, so what does it look like? In his book “The Politics of Jesus”, John Howard Yoder used the term “cruciformity” to describe a life of following Jesus. Cruciformity means a cross-shaped life; that the things we do, the words we say, the decisions we make are informed by, and conformed to, the cross of Christ. We are to live a cross shaped life.

It can be a time to be challenged and encouraged to see what it means to be more like Jesus. Study Questions Watch Full Service

Whether it's the pressure to conform, fear of failure, or a sense of inadequacy, fear has a way of showing up in our lives. The same fears we may experience at work or school to fit in, the anxiety that can cripple us because we fear failure, or our struggle feeling like an imposter can sometimes be amplified in a church community because our expectations of that community are the exact opposite.

What does it mean to be God's chosen people? Well, it means a few things. First, that God desires for us to be known by Him and to know Him. Secondly, it means that as His people, like the people of any city or country, we live in the context of a culture with expectations and standards. So what is, or should be, the culture of God's people? Study Questions Watch Full Service
