JAU Zoom Meeting 7-10-22 ”No Jesus, no blessing”

Christianity has taught everyone is entitled to the promise of blessings from God. All they need to do is follow the principles and rules laid out in the Bible. Paul teaches that this is not the truth of his evangel. Only in Jesus are the blessings and the promised expectations found. What does that look like? Our group discusses how Paul's statement in Gal. 3:16 lays the foundation for living as Jesus. He is our life. We have no other life.

 

JAU Zoom Meeting 7-3-22 ”Christ has set us Free!”

We have all heard that Jesus has set us free, but from what? Most believe it is just from the penalty of sin. Actually, Jesus has set us free from being controlled by the wrong spirit. Most people don't realize how free they really are!

 

Happy Freedom celebration! 

JAU Zoom Meeting 6-26-22 ”Are we nobodies in Jesus?”

Paul says there is no ethnicity, social class, or gender in Jesus (Gal.3.28). Does that mean we are "nobodies"? How do we view our uniqueness as the image of God and still be one in Jesus? Scott's blog post: https://myscottpage.blogspot.com/2022/06/mehim.html

JAU Zoom Meeting 6-19-22 ”Our Busy Father God”

On this 2022 Father's Day edition of our JAU meeting, our group discusses how our heavenly Father is always working in each of us, even in our bad times. His motive is "to will as to also work for the sake of His delight...working all together for the good..."(Phil. 2:13; Rom. 8:28). We reflected on some amazing ways He has been working in our lives, friends, and family.

Dennis with Scott 6-12-22 ”My New Sunday”

In this edition of The Jesus Conversations Podcast, Dennis and Scott explore the personal journey of Dennis out of institutional Christianity. What were the conflicts, and how did the revelation he received change him as a pastor? What impact did hearing or listening to Dennis have on people like Scott?

JAU Zoom Meeting 6-12-22 ”What is the future of the church?”

Our group today discusses what's next in God's plan for the His church, the body of Christ? Are we waiting to go to heaven, or is God going to show up here with us? If the latter, do we need to do anything, or do we just "surrender" to what we see Him doing? Here is the link to the podcast by Andy and Chrissy Koontz called "Surrender", https://youtu.be/kVKPN-Zty8s

JAU Zoom Meeting 6-5-22 ”What is the fear of Jesus”?

Paul tells us in Eph. 5:21 "to be subject one another in the fear of Christ". What kind of fear is that? Are we supposed to submit ourselves to each other because Jesus will be mad at us if we don't? In this episode, our group explores what this fear possibly means and its bearing on becoming the body of Jesus.

JAU Zoom Meeting 5-29-22 ”Praying like Paul”

When someone asks you to pray for them, what do you say? How do you pray? Most of the time, we just say "I will pray for you". But what does that mean? What do we pray for? Our group today talks about how Paul prayed for the ecclesia. What did he ask for? What didn't he mention?

Dennis w Scott 5-21-22 ”Bunker Busting”

In this episode, Dennis and Scott follow up on recent blog posts of Scott's entitled "Life in the Bunker" and "Missed Opportunities". In these posts, Scott personally reflects on how childhood traumas can prevent a person from being all they are intended to be in Jesus. What is God's plan for helping a person, especially a believer, bust out of the bunker? Dennis suggests it is through believers "adjusting" each other in the body of Christ. Are you interconnected with others with the intent of building each other up in the full stature of Jesus? 

JAU Zoom Meeting 5-22-22 ”Where to Next?”

Our group has been exploring the profound truth of Jesus as Us for over 2 years. This Sunday morning fellowship has indeed been inspiring and encouraging as we walk out this truth. But is it possible there is another level of revelation that Jesus invites us into? It is one thing to know that we are personally and individually manifestations of Himself, but it is another to realize that we are something more together. Paul teaches us that the endgame is to become something together that we can never be individually, and that is the "full stature of Christ" (Eph. 4:13). We apologize for the recording starting late into the first of our conversation.
