What gift can you share? — This week at ELC

July 21, 2017 by john

ephesians-4-1It is now no longer enough simply to sit back and marvel at God’s gift of grace offered freely to all; the time has come to listen hard to the Spirit calling us to use our unique gifts for the good of the community.  What impact is your life having in response to God’s great love?

Worship this week:  (All Services in air-conditioned fellowship hall)

Saturday  – 5:00 p.m.

Sunday — 8:30 a.m. Traditional worship

10:30 a.m.  Contemporary worship

Devotions for this week:

Unity in Christ, Ephesians 4:1-16                     July 23, 2017

 SHARE:   What was a high point of your day? What was a low point?

 READ: Read the following daily readings to deepen your understanding

Sunday, Ephesians 4:1-16, Unity in Christ

Monday, Ephesians 4:17-24, Old to New Life

Tuesday, Ephesians 4:25 –5:2, Rules for the New Life

Thursday, Ephesians 5:6-14, Renounce Old Ways

Friday, Ephesians 5:15-20, Renounce Old Ways

Saturday, Ephesians 5:21-24, The Christian Household

TALK:  Consider some of these ideas:

 4There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling, 5one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in all. (Ephesians 4:4-6)

  • It is now no longer enough simply to sit back and marvel at God’s gift of grace offered freely to all; the time has come to listen hard to the Spirit calling us to use our unique gifts for the good of the community. Game on!
  • What gifts do you bring to the body of Christ? (What are you good at?)
  • Wonder: What drives or motivates people who are vastly different from yourself? How different are they, really?

 PRAY:  God of unity, you have brought us together for a purpose. Show us each the way in which we might use our unique gifts in service to all. In Christ’s name, we pray, Amen.

BLESS:  May God use your gifts well. Amen..
