DisciplesNet Worship #671: Lent 3 – (Cobb 3.12.2023)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

We continue our emphasis in this season of Lent on stumbling blocks, those obstacles in our path of life that will cause us to stumble and maybe fall. Today Pastor Anita speaks to us from the story of Jesus meeting a Samaritan woman at a well and shows us how carrying too many even necessary things will cause us to stumble and how we must learn to let go.
Our worship service is just under 30 minutes of prayer, some favorite hymns, teaching, and communion.
You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

We hope that as you join us for worship you will feel a blessing from being part. Please tell friends, family, and others you know about our online church that is here with doors that are always open, walls as wide as the world, and always room at the table.

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

We continue our emphasis in this season of Lent on stumbling blocks, those obstacles in our path of life that will cause us to stumble and maybe fall. Today Pastor Bob looks at the story of Jesus meeting Nicodemus at night and shows us how seeking to safely put our faith in place in our lives will cause us to stumble, how our faith must be the organizing principle of our lives.
