Welcome to Week 1 of our Series titled "The Final Days of Christ" Over the next 7 weeks we will be embarking on a journey looking at everything that happened in the final week of Christ! Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King (Mark 11:1-11) 11 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 3 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.’” 4 They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. As they untied it, 5 some people standing there asked, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” 6 They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. 7 When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. 8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. 9 Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted, “Hosanna![a]” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”[b] 10 “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!” “Hosanna in the highest heaven!” 11 Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve. What Kind of King is Jesus? 1. Obedient 2. Humble 3.

Evangelism Training on Campus In the last three weeks the E360 team has completed evangelism training on campus through two multi-day events. The first was at Appalachian State University Aug 27-29 and the second at the University of Maine September 10-12. In this episode of Engage Your World we share a few insights we gained from these events. Some key highlights from the events include: 26 volunteers who joined our team to watch, learn, and participate in evangelistic outreach Volunteers included college students all the way up to an 88 year old man 10 students coming to faith in Christ Over 60 students interested in one-on-one follow up Several aspects of these events demonstrated the accuracy of a recent post we did on evangelism misconceptions in the church.

Our society is making it harder and harder on the family and on the family of God … the local church. How does God want these two institutions to relate to one another? Is the local church simply a useful resource for the family, available to them when they feel a need? Or is the local church an essential element in what it means to walk “in a manner worthy of Christ?” Over the next few weeks, we will explore the riches God has for us through the Body of Christ and find that passionate partnership in the local church is God’s design for every one who desires to follow the Lord Jesus.
