Week Eleven - Rhythm

Next week our focus will be on the eleventh film in Rob Bell's Nooma series - "Rhythm."  Marcie will lead us in this casual discussion.

Is how we live connected to something that has been in place since the beginning of time? Maybe Jesus didn't come to start a new religion, but to show us how to live in tune with the life God has always planned for us.

Week Ten - Lump

Next week our focus will be on the tenth film in Rob Bell's Nooma series - "Lump."  Wendy will lead us in this casual discussion.

Some are small things and some of us have really big and devastating things.  Some of us even have things that people close to us don't know about. Personal junk that we keep to ourselves so we don't have to deal with it. Because we don't know how to deal with it, do we? We're afraid that if we try it's just going to make everything worse. But no matter how big our junk is, no matter how much we've done has impacted the way other people feel about us or how we feel about ourselves, it hasn't changed how God feels about us. God loves us, he always has and always will, and there's nothing we can do to change that.

Week Nine - Bullhorn

Next week our focus will be on the ninth film in Rob Bell's Nooma series - "Bullhorn."  Ashley will lead us in this casual discussion.

God loves everyone, so a Christian should, too. In fact, Jesus said the most important thing in life is to love God with everything we've got and love others in the same way. But it's not always easy to love everyone around us, is it? Sometimes we strongly disagree with other people's political views, religious beliefs, behaviors, or something else, and it makes it hard to love them when we feel like we're right and they're very wrong. But Jesus doesn't separate loving God and loving others. So maybe the best way for us to show our love for God is actually by loving other people no matter how hard it sometimes is. Maybe it's the only way.

Week Eight - Dust

Next week our focus will be on the eighth film in Rob Bell's Nooma series - "Dust."  Tabitha will lead us in this casual discussion.

Believing in God is important, but what about God believing in us? Believing that we can actually be the kind of people we were meant to be. People of love, compassion, peace, forgiveness and hope.  People who try to do the right thing all of the time. Who act on the endless opportunities around us every day for good, beauty and truth. It's easy for us to sometimes get down on ourselves. To feel "not good enough" or feel like we don't have what it takes. But maybe if we had more insight into the culture that Jesus grew up in and some of the radical things that he did, we'd understand the faith 
that God has in all of us.

Week Seven - Luggage

Next week our focus will be on the seventh film in Rob Bell's Nooma series - "Luggage."  Marcie will lead us in this casual discussion.

Maybe a friend turned their back on you. Maybe someone you loved betrayed you. We all have wounds and we end up carrying around these things that people have done to us for weeks, months, and sometimes even years. It isn't always easy to forgive these people and after a while these hurts can get really heavy. So the only way to feel better seems to be somehow getting back at the people that hurt us, to get revenge. But does revenge ever truly satisfy? Maybe forgiving isn't something you do for someone else to let them off the hook. Maybe forgiveness is all about you. God didn't create you to carry these wounds around. God created you to be free.
