reset-1024-768When our computers get bogged down and unmanageable, we know to hit a reset button to simply start over. Wouldn’t a reset button be great in life? We know it would be complicated, with all our responsibilities and routines to consider, but imagine the freedom and refreshment of a new start in life! What would you do differently? What would you pay more attention to, and what would you ignore? How would you avoid getting bogged down and broken again?

The great news is, in coming to earth as Jesus Christ, God has begun to “reset” our universe, our world, and even us. We’re invited to start over with him, in what he calls his kingdom. We’re invited to start a new life with a clean slate.

What gets wiped clean, and lived differently, when God resets our lives? We’ll explore how God resets these key areas of our lives:

  • Reset: Goals
  • Reset: Time
  • Reset: Money
  • Reset: Work
  • Reset: Body & Food
  • Reset: Sex & Marriage
  • Reset: Family
  • Reset: Compassion
  • Reset: Nature
  • Reset: Society
  • Reset: Death

Follow our daily challenges Monday to Friday for the next several weeks, and invite God to reset your life.  It all starts Monday, January 13th below and in our app and social media channels.

Monday - A New Idea - God in Worship

We are a few weeks into a new series on “Becoming Like Family”. This is important as our online community begin to share the daily challenges with friends, and we begin to gather our larger community together as one church community. We won’t be bound together by a building, or institution, but rather by five commitments. Two weeks ago, we explored commitment to common learning goals. Last week, we explored a commitment to connectedness as a community of small and large groups. This week, our commitment is to God in worship. Worship is not a word everyone uses every day, and even if we do, we might not sure what it means. Does it mean to bow down and say I’m not worthy? Kids “just worship” their parents, older siblings, etc. is that what it means? Or if you have church experience, you might think worship is something you do at a weekly service, or even just the music part of that weekly service. Did you know the official way to address Rob Ford is “Your Worship”? As you can see, there is some confusion on what “worship” means. Question: What do you think of when you hear the word worship? Reminder: Earlier in this series, we saw the importance of reading the Bible together in sync, so our new daily bible readings start today in our mobile app and web site.

From Series: "Becoming Like Family"

This series looks at becoming “like family” with others learning to follow Jesus. We're exploring how the church is not a building, institution or event, but a community of people. It's important that explore what church means as we prepare to launch a new church in Ajax in 2014.
