Genesis 38

• Does my life have biological life by spiritual death?
• Men: Where am I keeping my strength like Judah instead of giving it like Jesus?
• Women: Where am I taking the blessing like Tamar instead of trusting in it like Jesus?

Joseph is the favored son in his family, a dreamer, and at 17 is oblivious to the call of God on his life.

In this series Joseph and the Technicolored Dream, we will explore how the dreams of Jesus for a multi-colored family are waking us up from ours. May he call us to reign with Jesus to feed nations in our time of spiritual famine!

Colossians 2:6-12, 20-23

How can you put off legalism/mysticism and BEHOLD the goodness of Jesus in the season you're in?

 

Worship is a practice that goes beyond our singing on Sundays. Every season is an opportunity to see God is as bigger and better than our enemies and idols. Paul equips us in Colossians 2 to be rooted in our worship that we would not be swayed by “cunning philosophies” of mysticism or “shallow religion” of legalism but rather built up in Jesus.

Matthew 11

Where are you seeing the blind, lame, lepers, deaf, dead, prisoners, and poor healed in Jesus' name?
