Getting Started...

 

Text :  Mark 1: 29-39
Jesus Heals Many at Simon’s House
29 As soon as they* left the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30Now Simon’s mother-in-law was in bed with a fever, and they told him about her at once. 31He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up. Then the fever left her, and she began to serve them.
32 That evening, at sunset, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed with demons. 33And the whole city was gathered around the door. 34And he cured many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.

A Preaching Tour in Galilee
35 In the morning, while it was still very dark, he got up and went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed. 36And Simon and his companions hunted for him. 37When they found him, they said to him, ‘Everyone is searching for you.’ 38He answered, ‘Let us go on to the neighbouring towns, so that I may proclaim the message there also; for that is what I came out to do.’ 39And he went throughout Galilee, proclaiming the message in their synagogues and casting out demons.

24/7 nourishment...

 

God's love and attention for us is without end, without bound, without limits.  Why should our personal worship encompass only 1 hour on Sunday?  God invites us to a 24/7 relationship.  Here's your opportunity to continue to explore the way God's word connects with this week's worship theme.  We invite you to spend some time each day discovering God's word...

 

24/7 intro: This week we continue a series exploring a number of traditional "spiritual practices". Lectio Divina (sacred reading) is the ancient practice of prayerful Bible reading. As we continue through our series, you are invited to read through the gospel of John, using this practice.
1. read the passage through slowly several times.
2. reflect on the text. Where does it connect to your life? Is there a particular word or phrase that seems of special import to you today?
3. Pray: let your reflection lead you into prayer.
 

Stop by http://www.fpcbridge.com/BB/ to discuss what your reading!
 


24/7 readings -

John 4-6 (suggested to read approximately half a chapter each day, but you may find you read a little more or less each day, depending on catches your attention.)
