Gospel for life with Nathaniel Timmermann

The mostly untrue things we really need to stop believing: If my marriage is unhappy, I should leave

Do you feel like your marriage is a lie? Are you just unhappy and maybe have thought of leaving? Maybe this is something untrue that you've started believing...

From Problems to Solutions: When you have too many problems to solve, delegate

What do you do when you have too many problems in life to solve? How do you handle that situation? Are you able to give it away without jealousy or possessiveness? Will people let you lead? Check out how Moses did it. 

From Problems to Solutions: Handling Conflict

Is conflict a reality in your life? Is someone's need for approval and acknowledgment causing it? Maybe its time to hear some news even in conflict. 

From Problems to Solutions: Get Back Up

Has life knocked you down? Have you failed? It's time to move to a solution with the servant King. Get back up! 

Eucatastrophe

Dare you believe that the surprise twists and turns in life - the good news - are really true and good? They point to something more, something so much better. 

 

Discussion questions

Eucatastrophe: Death

You know life has meaning when you have something to say at death. Take a look this week at a man who had something profound to say. His life was filled with meaning because of what he heard and saw around him. 

Eucatastrophe: Justice

Do you want justice? I'm tired of the injustice of it all. 

Eucatastrophe: Sacrifice

The events leading up to Jesus' death tell us of the worst catastrophe we could imagine. An innocent, good man plans to sacrifice himself, faces a monkey trial, and will eventually die. But Jesus says this sacrifice will, through a surprising turn of events, turn into the greatest surprise for the world. 

Are you willing to sacrifice and hope that through a surprising turn of events it will turn into the greatest surprise for others? I invite you to try it out and see what happens. 

Losing Loss

When we lose a connection with someone, we experience loss. Have you dealt with that? Jesus destroys loss and we can lose it through conviction, connection, and content. 

Disruption: Grabbing God's power

"Get up". Because he lives, you too will live. This is God's power. The powerful voice of God that speaks life into our death, our regret, our trouble, and trial. Grab onto it.
