Week 5: Seizing the Moment

September 29, 2024 • Jason Schofield , Eric Renegar

The Christian has always burst forth, sharing the good news (Gospel) with anyone they had the opportunity. To contain the soul-saving message of salvation through Jesus would be nothing short of selfishness, uncaring, and discompassionate. Imagine knowing a medical scientist held the cure for diabetes and refused to share it. How would you feel about this person? What measures would people take to force this scientist to share his formula to relieve human suffering? In like manner, a Christian could never hold back from revealing God’s plan when an opportunity is presented.

Week 10: We Will Remember His Resurrection

November 3, 2024 • Jason Schofield , Eric Renegar

What if you worked your entire life and got no paycheck? What was the purpose of your toiling? If someone always told you jokes but never remembered the punchline, would you still appreciate their joyful tale? What if you drove on the highway without a destination; would you ever arrive? Have you ever painted a room with only a brush and no paint? Did the new appearance suit you? Initially, such questions may seem absurd or ridiculous, but have you considered, if Jesus were to come to earth and never be sacrificed, how useless and nonsensical that would be?

Week 9: We Will Think of the Crucifixion

October 27, 2024 • Jason Schofield , Eric Renegar

Jesus asked his disciples to remember his death, and he also asked them to remember his suffering and the shed blood that accomplished the New Covenant. Jesus said, “Do this in remembrance of me” twice in 1 Corinthians 11:23-26.

Week 8: We Will Testify

October 20, 2024 • Jason Schofield , Eric Renegar

Imagine you witnessed Jesus feed the 5000, heal a leper, or open the eyes of a blind man. Imagine seeing Jesus walk on water, calm a boisterous stormy sea, or cause a paralyzed man to walk for the first time. Imagine you witnessed Jesus being tortured to death by crucifixion only to walk free from His grave, resurrected, and walking the earth again. If that isn’t enough, imagine seeing Him ascending into heaven later. Can you fathom how you would feel and how strong your confidence would be in serving our Lord? Can you imagine trying to contain your joy, digest your excitement, and only to decide never to share your experience?
