Tonight we will be taking a look at the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead! We will unpack the story with a bit of context, in hopes to see the beauty of it! Jesus gives Lazarus life! We will then spend some time looking at how Jesus can give life to us as well. We will dig into the wages of sin, and see how we all are dead to sin! But, Jesus gives life! So we will answer the question: how do I receive that life? - You believe!

It is the final week of our “Not Normal” teaching series! As we conclude this series about relationships, sexuality, and going against the norms of the greater culture around us, we are going to focus on the extravagant grace of Jesus. When the religious leaders bring a woman caught in adultery to Jesus, he shows her his perfect grace and love in a moment when she felt shame and brokenness. Students will be reminded that Jesus has given us the gift of his love, which unlike the often conditional love experienced from others. This week is an invite night and students are encouraged to bring a new friend to experience Lifeline!

This week we will be taking a look at the story of Jesus cleansing the Leper of his spots. We will take time unpacking the story, to see the true loving and welcoming nature that Jesus offers. We will then look into our own lives to see what spots we might have. Things like not feeling good enough for Jesus, not feeling like me know enough, or maybe that we just aren't fully committed to our faith. These spots tell us to keep Jesus at arm’s length. But we see how Jesus treats the leper and we gain clarity for how He will treat us. Jesus cares more about you than your spots!

We will be using the story to learn more about Jesus and also answer the question ‘How do I follow Jesus in my day to day life’. We will be looking at our spiritual blindness, as it seems to get in the way of us following Jesus in our day to day. Just as Jesus restored Bartimaeus’ blindness, Jesus can also restore our spiritual blindness! Ending with a list of ways students can follow Jesus in their day to day life. (spiritual practice to close)

As we conclude our teaching series about relationships, Cori Olsson (Lifeline’s Director of Operations) will be talking to our students about how Jesus has called his followers to function in all relationships they have. As followers of Jesus, we are called to look out for and humbly serve those in our midst; while this may apply to future dating relationships and marriage relationships, students can begin putting this into practice today with how they treat their friends, family, and others.

As we continue our Not Normal teaching series, we will discuss the common misconception that we often live into: That God only cares about the spiritual part of our lives. This belief can cause us to diminish sexual sin, dismiss God’s calling on our lives, and place our faith journey into a smaller box than it was ever intended to be placed in. Students will be reminded that because God created us and redeemed us, we are called to follow him with all of us.

As we begin our 3-week series where we explore exactly what Jesus said about relationships, we begin by talking about the very foundation of love itself. The foundation of love itself is God’s love for us in sending Jesus to redefine us today and forever. Students will be reminded that living into the love of Jesus instead of defining love by other means will lead to them having fulfilled and purposeful lives.

As we begin our series about relationships and sexuality, we will look at the story of Joseph in the Old Testament. Joseph had hundreds of reasons to go his own way and sin against God. In walking through Joseph's background and the cultural norms of his day, students will be asked to consider the many reasons why they would have to go their own way. Students will be compelled to begin this series with a commitment to trust God and align themselves with His ways just like Joseph did.
