From the Pastors
I can only imagine what it’s like to go watch a movie as a family if you have boys. It probably involves action, adventure, swords and super heroes. But God has given me three lovely little ladies (pictured here), which means that when we go to the theater as a family, my experience is … well … different. It contains less action and more drama; fewer swords and more pixie dust. The “action” in the “live action” version of Cinderella that we watched last week simply meant that the movie contained real actors & actresses, rather than the original animation.
“I’ve begun to view the gospel as a verb, not just a noun (“gospeling” each other), and have become more fluent with it. It also helped me think through my own personal story and how it relates to God’s Greater story (Creation – Fall – Redemption – Re-Creation). The tangible experience of gathering to eat weekly and applying Gospel principles with each other was most compelling because I sometimes regard weekly bible studies or meetings as another thing to take me from ‘the stuff of life’. After going through the Gospel Primer with this group, I have the perspective that our family has to eat any way, so why don’t I invite others to join us?”
I’ve been thinking a lot about the Bible lately in preparation for our new teaching series that starts on Jan 4 at Brentwood and Franklin called “The Word of God – Written, Living, Active.”

When you hear the word “discipleship” what do you think of? If you’re like me, your mind automatically gravitates toward some sort of process of helping others mature in their faith. We tend to think of discipleship in terms of a program. Our first thought is often something to do, rather than someone to be. While this mindset isn’t completely off base, it can easily put the proverbial cart before the horse.
