Opportunity Jesus – 2019 Church Reading Plan
In the first chapter of the gospel of John, the disciples ask Jesus where he is staying, and he invites them to “come and you will see.” (John 1:39). Over and over in the gospels we see Jesus invite people to “come and follow me”.
The mission of CrossPointe is to point our community to Jesus so that people can Know God, Find Freedom, Experience Belonging and Live Generously.
We want to give people the OPPORTUNITY to “come and see Jesus” in 2019. Not just what other people say about Jesus, or maybe what we’ve created in our head about Jesus – but who Jesus says He is, what He claimed to be, what He taught, how He lived, what He calls his followers to be about through His Word.
The Details:
As a church, we are going to spend 2019 reading “Opportunity Jesus” (by our own Jeremy Eagan) which is a chronological study of the life of Jesus through the 4 Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John).
Starting the week of December 30th-January 5th, we will work through a chapter a week of the book and use various formats – social media (Facebook & Instagram), messaging, blogs, informal conversations with one another, a community group – to point one another to Jesus through this book.
Your part:
- Read a chapter a week
- Be intentional to talk with others in your family and the church about the passages / questions in each chapter
- Follow CrossPointe Jupiter on Facebook & Instagram
- Ask God to give you the OPPORTUNITIES to Know Him and follow Him in the everyday things of life.
