Join us for the 9 am worship with communion as Rev. Dr. Craig Alwin shares the sermon, “Trusting God.” Below are questions to consider for this Sunday’s sermon.

- How might we follow Jesus’ command to say, “May peace be on this house” every time we enter a house or business, fully expecting it to be where Jesus is about to enter?
- How might that change our perspective of the people we encounter there?
- What does it look like for us to enter spaces in the same manner as Jesus sent the 70?
- How might Jesus reword verse 4 for us? (“Carry no wallet, no bag, and no sandals. Don’t even greet anyone along the way.”)
