next steps

FlashForward
(if you weren’t at Maranatha on 9/20, you will need to listen online here – usually posted on Tuesday)

Some questions for your consideration/discussion (maybe your small group can use this):

How do I react/respond to the question “if you saw your future, what would you do”?

Are you willing to accept the fact that your actions today determine, in part, your future?
Any adjustments necessary?

Dig into verse 7 of Ephesians 2: “So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.” (NLT)

Consider the vital part the Church plays in regard to fulfilling God’s vision:
Ephesians 3:10-11 His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, 11 according to his eternal purpose that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. (TNIV)

Process the idea…
“what part do I play in the future of the church?”

Come to worship service next week. We plan to explore some pretty cool options for “Flashing Forward”.
