Easter Service 2024

Luke ACT 3, Easter Sunday

In a world filled with chaos and confusion, Easter is an oasis of hope. Easter captures our hearts and points us toward the future. The Gospel of Luke spends much of its time leading to the Cross of Jesus Christ. What happens after the cross? Resurrection. On Easter Sunday we are going what the Emmaus road with Jesus in Luke 24 and ask some key questions: what does it look like for Jesus to interrupt our daily lives? How can we stop and listen to his healing voice? Can a relationship with Jesus transform us into passionate followers who want to impact the world? Luke 24:13-35 answers all these questions … and more. Join us, Easter Sunday, as we continue on the road with Jesus—it is a path that will change your life.”

“On the road,” is a key theme in this section. Jesus makes the turn for Jerusalem with his disciples. He walks and walks and teaches them. Images of a journey of faith should be prevalent on the stage.

Luke Series Overview
Have you ever lost something … something that was precious to you? It could be a family member, a wedding ring, a career, or, today, even you phone. Parts of our lives are precious to us. The question is: how far would you go? If someone or something is lost, how far would you go to seek and save them? We live in a world fill with lost people. People are searching, seeking, something bigger and better—something to fill the gap we sense in our hearts. People are longing for salvation but finding it in the wrong places. We need a savior.

The Gospel of Luke is the story of God himself, Jesus Christ, coming to earth to seek and save the lost. Luke is a long book, but it shows us many dimensions of Jesus. In every section we see Jesus seeking us. He comes as a baby through the incarnation … seeking us. He performs miracles to show his power .. as he seeks us. He walks along the road with us as we ask questions. He dies for us … but then he rises again. And now, he sends his followers out into the world to seek the lost.  

It’s the call of Jesus. How far would you go … to seek the lost?  

What is the point? These books begin with hope, but end in disappointment. The spiritual state of the people are unchanged. The political and social reforms don’t address the core concerns of the heart. The book points us forward to the need for the new covenant which would renovate the human heart as prophesied by Jeremiah (ch 31) and Ezekiel (ch 36).

Messiah In The Passover

“And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’ And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, ‘This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood’” (Luke 22:19–20).

 

 

Skipping Passover during the Lenten/Resurrection Sunday season is like going immediately to the end of a good book. While the end of the story is the goal, it is more greatly appreciated when read from cover to cover.

Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. -Jude 3, ESV-

Luke-Act III: On the Road with Jesus

Luke ACT 3, Introducing Jesus

At the end of Luke 9, things change. Jesus decides it is time to walk to Jerusalem where he knows he will die. He knows his mission: to seek and save the lost. That means giving everything for the ones he loves. In Luke 10-13, Jesus goes on the road with his disciples. As he walks … he teaches us about and anxiety and the signs of the times. Have you ever spent time Jesus? This is your opportunity to come to him and cast all you fears and worry and doubts at his feet. Listen to to his voice … on the road.  

“On the road,” is a key theme in this section. Jesus makes the turn for Jerusalem with his disciples. He walks and walks and teaches them. Images of a journey of faith should be prevalent on the stage.

ACT I – 12/3 – 12/24: Advent: Luke 1-2
Christmas is about the birth of Christ. But why did he come to earth? Amidst all the presents and the lights the pressure of the season … we feel lost. The Good news of the Gospel of Luke, which begins with the birth of Jesus in chapters 1-2 is this:  “For the Son of Man came to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:10).” Are you feeling lost this Christmas? Allow God incarnate himself to meet you where you are. Stage design for advent portion should reflect Christmas themes. This opening section is the major theme of the series set in an Advent Motif.

Radical Mentoring – Coming in September

Radical Mentoring is a special type of men’s small group made up of high potential men facilitated by a more senior, more mature man. The vision is to help these men live God-centric lives and fulfill their God-given potential.

 

It is our goal to impact the lives of men in a way that points them toward an integrated Christian life. We believe that we can have successful careers and be learners and followers of Jesus and be great husbands, fathers, church members, sons, civic leaders, disciple-makers and friends . . . all at the same time.

 

During this fall we will have two mentoring groups. The mentors will endeavor to share what they’ve learned about success, most often focusing on what they have screwed up on . . . hopefully, so that you can avoid the mistakes they made along the way. We will spend significant time on understanding who we are in God’s eyes, how to better relate to our wives, and how to best raise children. We’ll spend even more time on getting to know what it means to have a vibrant, living relationship with Jesus.

 

The type of guys we are looking for are . . .

  • Objective men: willing to take direct, pervasive feedback without being defensive; willing to look themselves in the mirror and make changes to improve
  • Humble men, hungry for personal growth
  • Men with a passionate commitment to Jesus
  • Men with a willingness to pay it forward and influence other guys in the future

The program involves a monthly two-hour meeting. Each meeting will be centered around a topic, and there will be a related book to reading, personal and relational assignments to complete and a verse or two of Scripture to memorize or study.

If you are interested in being in a mentoring group, please email your completed Application by August 31 to Bruce Corke at bckccorke@yahoo.com.
