Purpose: To share the Good News of Jesus Christ by reminding my flock that God made them with intent to love them and for them to experience joy because they are worthy as children of God. To share practical ways of discovering the goodness placed deep in their soul and to shape the memory of their soul through worship. Current events of Charlottesville led Week 3 to include a retelling of the Pee Wee Reese / Jackie Robinson story of 1947. Week 4 moved us from observing joy (disciples observing Jesus) to experiencing joy (disciples sent on mission).
