“Celebrating Change”
outline
Paul Sartarelli
Luke 5:27-39
Christ, in “partying” with Levi, takes the opportunity to challenge the Pharisees with their trust in traditions using the metaphor of wine and wineskins. Generally we will probe why it is so often “religious” people who struggle with change. And specifically we will challenge ourselves to Christ to introduce the necessary changes into our lives and church, beginning with the Gospel. |

“Christ: Our constant in Our transient World”
outline
Paul Sartarelli
Hebrews 13:14
Using the words to the Hebrews and the context of their lives as our example, we are instructed to find our security, not in this transient city, but in God our Father through His Son Christ who is our constant, our “hometown” until we get home. I must break myself of the habit of thinking that “here” should be permanent and unchanging, that this transient city is a permanent one. |

“Outlining Change”
outline
Paul Sartarelli
Daniel 1:1-8
With the story of Daniel and his introduction into Babylonian culture as our example, we will probe the issues of where to draw the line (morally/spiritually) in a culture that doesn’t honor Christ. What should change and what should not? If time permits, we will look at Neihbur’s “Christ and Culture” categories.

“Necessities of Life”
outline
Mike Castelli
Matthew 6:11-13
The latter half of this model prayer is rich with our requests to Him—for Him to provide, forgive, lead, and deliver us. We will look at how our call for dependence upon Him is the way to seek His glory. |

“Priority of Desire”
outline
Mike Castelli
Matthew 6:9-10
Jesus’ teaching and model for prayer calls us to a level of intimacy with God that is fresh and new to Scripture. We will look at what it means to call Him Father and refresh our thoughts on the priority of His kingdom work. |

“Enduring Change”
outline
Paul Sartarelli
Using the words to the Hebrews and the context of their lives as our example, we are instructed to find our security, not in this transient city, but in God our Father through His Son Christ who is our constant, our “hometown” until we get home. I must break myself of the habit of thinking that “here” should be permanent and unchanging, that this transient city is a permanent one.

“Don't Be Like Them”
outline
Mike Castelli
When Jesus taught His disciples how to pray, it came on the heals of His showing them how not to pray. We will look at how we go astray in our prayer life, with a call to integrity and simplicity. |
