Luke 12:25-48 "Be On The Alert" November 20, 2016

I hope you are all having a great day. I want to thank you for the great attendance and participation at our Small Group Leaders Meeting on Sunday. Your discussion, feedback, notes were very helpful.

Here's the leaders guide and participants guide for this coming Sundays sermon on Luke 12:35-48. This is a tough passage with a strong warning to be a faithful, prepared, and trustworthy servant of what God has entrusted you to.  Please spend some time reading over it before you met with your group.  Please let me know if you have any questions.

May God bless your time in your small group!

Luke 12:22-34 "The Treasure & The Heart" November 13, 2016

It is Election Day!  For some, this is a day of lots of worry. If you are worrying about the election of our next president or some of the props that are up for a vote, then you need to read this passage from Luke 12:22-34. Remember that worrying about the future is incompatible with having faith in God's sovereignty. May our trust and hope be in the LORD! Take time to express the feeling in your heart and ask God to help you live in faith!

Here's the leaders and participants guide for this upcoming Sunday's sermon. I look forward to seeing you there!

God bless you all and thanks so much for your commitment to your small groups and the church. You are valuable and we appreciate you so much!

Luke 12:13-21 "The Rich Fool" November 6, 2016

Greetings everyone!  I hope you are enjoying the crisp cool weather and we wish Pastor Ray a happy 50th birthday today!

Here's the next small group discussion on Luke 12:13-21 which is about coveting. In this story two brothers are arguing about how to divide their inheritance and try to get Jesus involved. Instead, Jesus tells a parable about a rich farmer who acts foolishly because he is rich towards himself and not rich towards God.

I hope you enjoy your conversation.

Here's a participants guide if it is helpful for you.

Please remember to RSVP for the small group leaders meeting on November 13 after church. A lunch will be served as we talk and learn together.

Continuning Luke 11:5-12 this coming Sunday

Hi leaders and facilitators,
This Sunday, we will continue Luke 11:1-13 (The Lord's Prayer) and Pastor Ray will focus on verses 5-13.
Since most of you meet every other week, I will not make a new discussion guide as the last one covers all these verses.
If however, you meet each week and need some new material, please let me know and I'll help you out.
Have a great week and as always, let me know how I can pray for your groups!
