Join me this week as we prepare our homes and hearts for the Easter season.   Day 1: Preparing for Easter What is Lent? Should we observe it? What would Jesus do? Luke 22   ACTION STEPS: 1) Write down your family's Easter traditions, and ask your family what things they enjoy most about the Easter season. 2) Do more of the things you all love, and stop stressing about the things no one cares about. 3) If certain traditions have special meaning, either religious or generational, share those stories with your family. 4) If you've been hurt/betrayed by someone you love and you don't know how to let it go, ask Jesus to help you. He can do the impossible. Even if you don't think they deserve forgiveness, holding onto the pain is hurting you more than you know. 5) Read Acts 2:42-47 at the bottom of this email. Peter describes the body of believers. That is what I want my family to reflect. Disclaimer: I might not want them to gather "DAILY" unless someone else is cooking! 6) Listen to Prayers From a Mom Podcast this week Monday-Thursday as we prepare for Easter.   FOCUSED PRAYER: Father, As I prepare my heart and home for Easter, I pray that everything I do reflects you. Fill my house with joy and laughter. Help me let go of unnecessary things that aren't serving you or my family but causing us to be so busy we can't enjoy the moment. Show me ways to teach my family to remember your sacrifice and celebrate your resurrection. Where I am holding onto unforgiveness, help me let it go. When things aren't perfect in my family, remind me that perfection is not the goal; but love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are. And all those things are present when I am following your lead. Let my family reflect the body of believers Peter describes in Acts 2:42-47. In Jesus' name, Amen!   THIS WEEK'S SCRIPTURES: Luke 22:1-35  (Jesus Prophesies the Location of the Last Supper) Matthew 26:6-13 (A Woman Anoints Jesus) Acts 2:42-47 The Community of Believers   THIS WEEK'S RESOURCES: ADVENTURE CHALLENGE, use the Promo Code ENJOYTHEMOMENT at checkout to get 10% off ENJOYING YOUR BLENDED FAMILY: 7 DAYS IN 7 WAYS TO CONNECT, free guide that gives you small things you can do in a week to help strengthen your family relationships.

A Sermon for the Fourth Sunday of Easter "What does abundant life look like at this time?"

A Sermon for the Fourth Sunday of Easter "What does abundant life look like at this time?"

Luke 24:13-35That same day two of his disciples were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem and they were talking about all the things that had taken place there. Suddenly, Jesus himself came near and went with them but their eyes were kept from recognizing him. He said to them, “What are you discussing as you walk along?” They stood still, looking sad. Then one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered him saying, “Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who does not know about the things that have taken place there in these days?” Jesus said to him, “What things?”They said, “The things about Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in word and deed before God and all the people. And about how our chief priests and leaders had him handed over to be condemned to death and crucified him. But we had hoped he would be the one to redeem Israel. Moreover, some women from our group went to the tomb early this morning and when they did not find his body there, they came back and said that they had indeed seen a vision of angels who said that he was alive. Some men from our group went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not find him.” Jesus said to them, “How foolish you are and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets had declared. Was it not necessary for the Messiah to suffer in this way and then enter into his glory?” Then, beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted for them the things about himself in all the scriptures.When they came near the village to which they were going, Jesus walked ahead of them as if he were going on. But they urged him strongly, saying, “Stay here with us. For the day is almost over and night has come.” So Jesus went in and stayed with them. While he was at the table with them, he took bread, broke it and gave it to them. Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him. And he vanished from their sight.That very hour, they got up and returned to Jerusalem. They found the eleven and their friends and they were saying, “He is alive and he has appeared to Peter.” Then they told them about what had happened on the road and about how he had been made known to them in the breaking of the bread.I love this walk to Emmaus story. It might be one of my favorites and I’ve talked about it before as a microcosm or a snapshot of our faith’s journey in the world because it just holds so much emotion and theology and references to the Scriptural narrative. I mean, we don’t get to hear it all, but we’re told that Jesus interprets for his friends the things about himself in ALL of Scripture, it happens just after the resurrection, and right before “he is made known to them in the breaking of bread.” There’s just so much to chew on and to choose from and to wonder about in this story.Again, all of this takes place just after Easter’s resurrection with these two sad, broken, pitiful souls leaving Jerusalem with their tails between their legs, spiritually decimated by what they witnessed on Good Friday and because they hadn’t yet heard the rest of the story.And then he shows up, unannounced and unrecognizable to their weary eyes and broken spirits. Maybe Jesus was in disguise, afraid of what might happen if the wrong people recognized him. Maybe their eyes were swollen shut and filled with tears. Maybe they were all wearing masks, covering their mouths and noses, to keep from spreading a virus, who knows?Whatever the case, they tell this supposed stranger what they know and how they feel about all that had just happened to their friend, Jesus, from Nazareth – how he was crucified, died and was buried, even though they thought he was going to be the one to redeem Israel; to fix everything and save the day. And then he tells them what he knows – and what they should have remembered – if they’d been paying attention: all the prophecies and predictions and promises about the coming of the Messiah, from throughout the Hebrew Scriptures. And then they invite him over for dinner and ask him to stick around for the night, rather than to keep walking to wherever he may have gone next. And that’s when they recognize him – at the table… over dinner… in the breaking of the bread and, presumably, in the sharing of some wine. Jesus breaks bread with them and they finally see him for who he is – their Messiah, their salvation, their forgiveness, their redemption, their reason for living in this life and for the next.But I want to back up for a minute – or maybe about seven miles, according to the story – and I want to wonder, in a different way, about this bit of Luke’s Gospel and this experience with Jesus, outside of Jerusalem, with those two, otherwise unknown disciples. I don’t want to wonder so much about the broad scope of this story and all it may have to say about the sweeping narrative of Scripture or about how it may apply to the grand experience of our faith’s journey. I don’t even want to talk about what I THOUGHT I was going to talk about today – how it speaks to the significance of Holy Communion for the practice of our faith. I’ve done that before a handful of times, and we’ll share communion later, because of it.But I found myself wondering instead, this time around, about the simple act and example of patience, humility, and compassion Jesus showed to those disciples on the road that day. And how that’s a pretty practical, holy lesson for all of us, still.See, these two friends Jesus meets on the Road to Emmaus weren’t part of the original twelve, closest followers of Jesus. All of them, those twelve, I mean – minus Judas Iscariot, of course – were holed-up in a room somewhere, back in Jerusalem. So these two – Cleopas who isn’t mentioned anywhere else in all of Scripture and his pal who isn’t even worthy of a name, apparently – couldn’t have been a part of that inner circle.So maybe these two are followers on the fringe; late-comers to the Jesus movement. Maybe they didn’t get to sit at the table with the cool kids, like Peter, James, John, or Mary.Maybe these two weren’t all-in on this Jesus of Nazareth thing, yet … you know, they’d been curious, found him interesting, showed up to check things out, but hadn’t made an offering, or signed up for a class, just yet. Maybe they weren’t full-on Partners in Mission.Maybe they were from Emmaus, and maybe Emmaus was on the wrong side of the tracks, full of subsidized housing or something… maybe they drank too much… maybe they voted differently than the rest of the disciples… maybe not everyone approved of their relationship or their living arrangement or whatever.The point is, they weren’t part of the movers and shakers in Jesus’ core of disciples – or they would have been in Jerusalem, and we would have known their names. But they were just as broken and dismayed by the hopes that had been dashed. They were just as lost and alone and afraid of what they’d witnessed and they were just as unsure about what was coming next. And Jesus showed up for them, just as surely as he did for the eleven, back in Jerusalem. And this is what I love about the Jesus I see on the Road to Emmaus this time around: just like he did for Mary outside the tomb… just like he did for Peter, sometime before he set out for the Emmaus Road… Jesus shows up for those on the fringes; on the outside; for the “least of these,” you might say. And so should we.If I were Jesus, I might have gone to have a word Pontius Pilate. I might have showed myself to the Chief Priest. I might have made myself known to the soldiers who crucified me. I would have certainly surprised the hell out of Judas and asked him if his little deal with the Devil was worth it, in the end.But, true to form, Jesus goes after the lost and alone and broken. And he doesn’t dance or gloat or boast. He very literally, simply walks with them. He listens to their struggle and he hears about their sadness. He tells them what he knows. He reminds them about who they are and of what they believe, deep down in their heart of hearts. And he let’s them remember… and see for themselves... and then he feeds them, just like he had always done and just like he promised he would do. And that’s how, ultimately, they come to see, again, clearly, what God had done – and was willing to do – for them.So what if this is nothing more than a Master Class in evangelism and outreach for us in these days after Easter? What if this is God, in Jesus, showing us what it looks like to share grace and good news – no gloating… not boasting… no rubbing their noses in what people don’t know or understand or believe or want, even.Just walking alongside people who are hurting and lonely and searching for love and purpose in their life…Just listening to their story. Just acknowledging their struggles and their celebrations. Just sharing in their uncertainty and grief and questions.Just staying with them – even when we have other places to be or better things to do, sometimes.Just breaking bread and sharing wine and letting God’s mercy and grace do the heavy lifting of revealing the love we already know and have already received in more ways than we can count.So, let’s go after the lost and alone and broken with this good news, in a new way, this time around. I mean I love you all – don’t get me wrong – and I’m under no delusion that we have all of this figured out or that there aren’t plenty of lost, lonely, broken souls in our own inner circle. But there is a world full of people whose names we don’t know, yet, who feel lost and hungry for something more than what the world is feeding them.And we have the Bread of Life to share. We have grace upon grace to offer. We have roads to travel that others refuse to walk. And we are the Body of Christ in the world, you and I, believe it or not. I can make that pretty hard for people to see sometimes, to be honest. But it’s true.But it’s also true that God’s love will be made known through the bread we break, when we share it freely… God’s love will be made known through the forgiveness we offer… God’s love will be made known through the new life and second chances we promise… God’s love will be made known when we walk this walk with patience, humility, and compassion… and God’s love will be made known when we look for and learn from Jesus who walks with us and shows us this kind of love, every step of the way.Amen

Scripture: John 16:32-33 The post Easter: What is Really Going On? appeared first on Living Faith Missionary Church.

Easter - What a special Christian Holiday! It is the End Point or the Finishing Point of Christmas. These are the two Bench Marks of the Christian Faith. Christmas - Jesus comes as a baby to give a promise and a hope, Easter - Jesus dies and rises from the dead and thus He fulfills the promise and the hope. However, as important as these two special days are - the real crux of the matter happens between and after the days marked on our calendar. What Jesus did and how He lived "finished" God's plan and purpose. Now what we do with these events of Jesus life after the celebrations are over determines our eternal future thereafter. When Jesus cried out "It Is Finished" that fateful day - what did He finish? As we listen to this message today we will see that Jesus "finished" the only road that leads all mankind back into personal relationship with God His Heavenly Father. Now our responsibility is to walk on it... Where are you on this Road that Jesus Finished? Listen and be sensitive to the still small voice of the Holy Spirit...

If Jesus is God’s “Passover Lamb” could there be other images in the Passover meal that reveal the heart of Easter?What is that thing with a piece of bread wrapped in white linen & hidden away for a while?

Happy Easter. Jesus is risen! Looking at three characters who appear briefly in the crucifixion accounts of Jesus what can we learn about the whole point of Easter? What do supermarket deliveries and itchy trousers have to do with any of it?

Have you enjoyed reflecting on Jesus Christ as you have prepared for Easter? What are some of your takeaways or favorite parts of Jesus' life? For me, the magnificent Atonement that He so gifted each of us is my favorite. As I was reading in Alma this week deepening my knowledge and understanding of the Atonement I was stuck by how Alma's thoughts about the Atonement led to transformation.  I LOOOOOVE talking and practicing thoughts that serve me and BOOM right there in Alma 36 was the perfect example of thought work!

Brian and Rebecca talk about Easter in the Moravian Tradition in the context of the ChristChurch Massacre in New Zealand. How do we show up for Easter? What are we ready for and how are we changed by it?

PulpTheology Book Easter Essentials     The world as we know has a problem. The Bible clearly shows this but also shows us the solution to the problem. The man of history that we know as Jesus Christ, is the standout person from all of human history. Almost everybody has an opinion about Him. Jesus Christ is incomparable, and yet in human form, we know that during his earthly ministry he had no physical beauty that would draw people naturally to himself. We like to think of Jesus as a baby at Christmas, but so many people forget him after that, pretty much thinking and treating him as a baby. Yet we know that He grew and became a man. Christmas and Easter are inextricably linked together. The person born so He could save the world from itself. The great God of creation, stepping into His creation as a human, getting His hands dirty with the purpose of reconciling the world back to Himself. WOW! Jesus’ uniqueness meaning that you and I, indeed anybody, can choose to have an active and dynamic relationship with God. I know Him to be personally reliable in every facet of life. As have countless numbers in the last 2000 years, including around the world today. Inside this little book, we explore together the events of that first Easter some 2000 years ago. We will explore questions such as "What did Easter have to do with the Old Testament?" "Why is there an Easter?" "What happened at Easter to start changing the then known world?" “Why do the events of that first Easter matter to you and me?” Whether you are learning afresh or simply being reminded, come on in!

Steve DeNeff - Acts 22:2-21; 2 Cor. 5:16-18. Salvation is often portrayed, in evangelical circles, as the acquiescence to a series of good beliefs – Jesus died, Jesus rose again – but the resurrection reminds us is that Easter is, at its core, about a personal encounter with One who is alive and active in this world. Saul (turned Paul) was one who came late for Easter, who was “abnormally born,” as he put it (1 Cor 15:8). The conversion of Saul is a window into how active Jesus is for the gospel today. Who do you know that is late for Easter? What hope do you have that they will ever find it? Take heart in the story of Saul, that even though your friends are far from God, He is still pursuing them. He still has a plan for them and He will not rest until He has found them.

What do Bunny Rabbits have to do with Easter? What about eggs? Why do Christians find special meaning in the cross and and empty tomb?

What is Easter? What are we celebrating?

What is the importance of The Holy Spirit during this Easter season. What role did The Holy Spirit play in the story of Easter? What was He responsible for? These are really great questions and one's we seek to answer in our latest podcast from our Sunday Celebration.

Two people can look at the same thing and see something completely different. What do you see when you see the cross this Easter? What do you see when you see the empty grave?On the cross Jesus provided the answer to so many things including the greatest of all needs - the need for a Saviour.

Easter: What's it all about? Pastor Jeff Maloney

If you are a Christian you will find a special purpose in this show today. If you are not a Christian and do not believe - then you will want to listen to this show two or three times over as it may very well be the most important message you listen to. Vassula Ryden joins me on talk radio to discuss THE MESSAGE. Also, why are there two dates for Easter? What is the significance of celebrating just one Easter? Vassula Ryden, a Greek Orthodox woman has been chosen by God in 1985 to write down His messages named True Life in God, for our times, a title that God Himself chose to name His Work. Vassula was asked by God to share those messages with this generation. God's love and mercy is so great she says that it compels God to come to warn the world of its misgivings and repent, if not, a great chastisement of fire awaits us. Vassula continues to share her encounters with God all over the world, and the many incredible miracles that have accompanied the messages she's receiving. She'd like to share with us God's latest message that sounds very urgent, warning our modern world to repent, pray, and change our hearts sincerely by answering His call. Vassula Ryden, has written her autobiography in a book called: "Heaven is Real But So is Hell". In this landmark book, she revisits her remarkable journeys into the supernatural world, and recounts the critical Messages she has received for the world today. It describes her journey and the path that God traced for her, revealing profoundly important answers to many of today’s most pressing questions, as well as those that humankind have been asking since the beginning of time. Here is that message: The Lord gives us an Urgent Prayer (February 13, 2016) My peace I give to you; will you pen down My Words? Yes Lord... this generation is hard to bend; enfeebled by their sins they lay their confidence in Satan, building their hope in him; although I have been standing before everyone to see Me, few have taken notice; their leaders have grown cruel, and death awaits many nations through their hand; how much have I wept over you, creation! You whose life now will be streaming down in death; then when flames will lick like tongues your inhabitants, bursting in the air, I will ask this generation: where will you find relief? and in whom? in Satan? in your ego and self? the time has come to execute My Justice for the punishment of this faithless generation is at your doors; I will carry out My orders to the letter; when you will hear a thunderclap, My Voice will be heard, thundering in your ears, resounding to the very ends of the earth; then know that the world and all who live in it will hear the Voice of Justice: evil will bring death to many nations... ruin will creep up in every city; have you heard that 'the Angel of Yahweh will encircle cities and nations' calling everyone to repent? these are the things that will take place in the days to come; therefore, you who have entered My Courts and believed in My sayings, pray and do not dread or fear, but you who have jeered for endless years on My sayings, striking with your tongue My prophets, beware! for you have used lies to justify your lies, you have indeed buried My Words in your own tomb; yes, indeed, you have been twisting My Words; but your sins have created a gulf between you and Me; and now Justice will not be withheld; I tell you, bitter will be your coming days when I will confront you... pray and do not allow your eyelids to close down in sleep! here is how you should pray: "Yahweh, my God, let my prayer reach you, hear our cry of mercy and for help, forgive those who have no faith in You, my God, and no trust either in your power to save us; do not blast the lights out of our days, withering with it in a flash the earth; but in Your Fatherly Compassion, pity us, and forgive us; do not allow the evil one to shed our blood like water; forgive our guilt, repress Your anger,

Easter is the most significant holiday that we celebrate because we remember that Christ died on the cross and rose from the dead. Have you ever thought about this, though... What if there were no Easter? What if Jesus had not done what He did for us? Thinking about it in that way might help us to understand better just how much God has done for us. Turn to God’s Word and think about “What If There Were No Easter?”
