My apologies for neglecting this space over the summer.
The purpose of this blog is for readers to have the opportunity to read, think about, pray about, and comment on, the scripture that will be used during worship on the following Sunday.
For Sunday, September 5, 2010: Read Luke 14:25-33.
Questions for reflection: What does it mean to "count the cost" of something before we do it? How do we "count the cost" of things we say/do in our secular lives? Are there often unintended consequences to even our best thoughts and actions? What does Jesus mean when he asks us to "count the cost" of being his followers? What, if anything, has it cost you to follow Jesus? What is the difference between "cheap grace" and "costly grace"? Has believing in "cheap grace" weakened our commitment to Jesus Christ here in the USA? If so, how?
