This week we began by looking at the high level of synergy which is evident in synchronized swimming. Similarly, there are times and places where God seeks to synchronize a group of people. This seems to be happening in our midst as we take time to share with one another what God is doing and saying to each of us as individuals. In this way, we begin to see and hear more clearly where He is putting His finger and what is on His heart. For me, it seems like the class has been highlighting some work that God is doing in women in our congregation. We moved from this topic into a time of looking more carefully at the story of God's calling to the boy Samuel in I Samuel 3 and looking at what truth stuck to us as we experienced that story. Finally, we spent some more time looking at God's desire to deliver us from a shame orientation. The audio from Week 5 is below:
Week 5 - Samuel Listening...
I also distributed some questions to consider as we look back upon the first month of this elective. Please consider taking time to look over the questions and respond. Think about what God is saying to you, what is taking shape in your heart, in your life during these weeks...in what ways is God synchronizing you with what He is doing in our community?
