We celebrate Palm Sunday 2015 by looking at how Jesus specifically impacted the lives of four people during is earthly ministry. Looking through the lens of the History Channels "The Bible" we see the story of the leper and the paralytic man who was
lowered through the roof to see Jesus. And the stories of the woman
caught in adultery and of Matthew, the tax collector, to teach how Jesus
forgives those who have lost their dignity.

If we are going to be a healthy, well rounded person we need to take of
our soul. The soul is necessary for our Christian life. In our fourth and final week we look at the amazing words of Jesus as he readies to send his disciples out... Do not be afraid of those who kill the
body... Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in
hell." (Matthew 10:28). Really? That's what we should be concerned about? What does that look like? Join us as
we unpack what this means in a world that seems so crazy.

If we are going to be a healthy, well rounded person we need to take care of
our soul. The soul is necessary for our Christian life. In week three we look at the reality that are souls are broken...and yet we desire deeper things...and what we need. We sense it all that the time...the psalmist speaks for all of us when he wrote, "Surely
you desire truth in the inner parts." So we're going to dive into the truth of what its going to take to find it. The apostle Paul gives us a some truth to hang on...
"Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus
came into the world to save sinners... 1 Timothy 1:15

If we are going to be a healthy, well rounded person we need to take care of
our soul. The soul is necessary for our Christian life. In week two we
talk about how to answer the question: How is your soul?. We are reminded that our souls belong to God. According to the Psalmist, it was made for God. That's why we're so thirsty. Sin
makes us thirsty, but we can't solve that thirst. Where can it find satisfaction?
Dallas Willard says
"The soul is that aspect of (y)our whole being that correlates,
integrates, and enlivens everything going on in the various dimensions
of the self. The soul is the life center of human beings." Join us as
we unpack what this means in a world that seems so crazy.

We all have habits that we practice...some are good...some are bad. This week will finish our series as we lean into those disciplines we need to do now to get what we want most in life. It's all about...new actions we can take.
When we guard our
words, make our thoughts obedient to Christ, and cultivate new actions,
we can see long term life change.

The words we speak...to others and to ourselves can be live giving or life taking. This week we'll try to see the impact because too often, we make huge plans and major resolutions, and we get burned
out when we can't keep them. Pastor Matt Flinner shares part 3 in our series to talk about making small,
manageable, incremental changes that can really add up.
When we guard our
words, make our thoughts obedient to Christ, and cultivate new actions,
we can see long term life change.
