Last Sunday night, 8 of us met to begin discussing what it means to live in the Kingdom of God as found in the Beatitudes or the Blessings. So we began with the first 11 verses of chapter 5 in Matthew's Gospel. We looked closely at what Jesus meant by the "poor in spirit" and will explore the rest of the beatitudes in the following weeks. This next week we'll be talking about "blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted", and we're to bring an example or two that we think might relate to the topic. E.g. a story of someone mourning at a funeral or of someone mourning over a social ill.
If you'd like to join us, we meet at 6:00 on Sunday evenings for some snacks, sharing life, and discussing the Bible and faith. Our address is 2874 Kenwood Blvd. We're on the northeast corner of Kenwood and Goddard in the brick house. All are welcome.
Hope to see you there.
About ERC
- Emmaus Road Church
- Emmaus Road Church began with a group of people who had grown tired of merely "doing" church and instead desired actually to start "being" the Church. Ultimately, we wanted to experience life to the fullest, and we believe that the fullest experience of life is the one which finds connection with God through Jesus Christ. We hope others will come to experience the same richness of life as they see the love of God in us. We currently are meeting at 6:00 on Sunday evenings at 2614 Central Ave. Next to Durdel's Music store--6 blocks north of The University of Toledo. Please call or e-mail us if you have any questions. 419-389-7477 emmausroadchurch@gmail.com
