Family Faith July 26th, 2009
John 1:3-5 Everything was created through him; nothing—not one thing!— came into being without him. What came into existence was Life, and the Life was Light to live by. The Life-Light blazed out of the darkness; the darkness couldn't put it out.
Life • Characterize life • What things bring “life” to you • What things rob you of “life” • How do the aspects of “life” inspire you • How do the aspects of “life” drain you • Where do you draw energy for “life”
Video to watch • First time through… • Just get the big picture • Don’t look too deeply • Just watch, don’t think
What did you think? • What’s your first thought? • What struck you? • What captured you? • Describe what happened?
Video (second time) • This time… • Look for detail • What did you miss the first time • What about the music • What about the characters • What about the relationships • What about the audience
What can you draw from this… • Who are the characters • Describe the opening scene(s) • What is the main character doing • Describe the scenario(s) with each sub-character
Some thoughts • What is your favorite part • Why • One of my favorite points… • When Jesus steps in… • Can you draw any comparisons • When he wipes her “clean” • And then shows her “heaven”
What does this mean for us • Where do we spend our time • What distractions keep us from Jesus • Are we looking for Him • You know he is “pulling you close” • Are you letting Him? • Have you “sidelined” Jesus?
