Sunday, June 10, 2018 Third Sunday After Pentecost

A Peek At The Sunday Sermon

Farther Along We’ll Know All About It
Job 1:1; 2:1-10

Rest in peace, Kate Spade

We don’t know what drove a young, talented person to take her own life.
Depression? Hopelessness? No contentment or satisfaction?
Whatever the reason, she had been battling a dark and foreboding enemy.
Outwardly, Spade was cheerful and sunny. Family and friends may not have
been aware there was a severe problem. And then one day – that “enemy”
pushed her to a place where she felt there was only ONE ANSWER. And
that answer was so final.
I’ll be sharing a message from the Book of Job, about a man experienced an
incredible amount of grief and distress and how he survived and prospered.

Hope to see you….

Our suggested Scripture reading for June 3, 2018, from the 2018 UCC
Church Calendar:
Mark 3:20-35 (NLT)
Jesus and the Prince of Demons
20 One time Jesus entered a house, and the crowds began to gather again. Soon he and his
disciples couldn’t even find time to eat. 21 When his family heard what was happening, they
tried to take him away. “He’s out of his mind,” they said. 22 But the teachers of religious law
who had arrived from Jerusalem said, “He’s possessed by Satan, the prince of demons.
That’s where he gets the power to cast out demons.”
23 Jesus called them over and
responded with an illustration. “How
can Satan cast out Satan?” he
asked. 24 “A kingdom divided by civil
war will collapse. 25 Similarly, a family
splintered by feuding will fall
apart. 26 And if Satan is divided and
fights against himself, how can he
stand?
3He would never survive. 27 Let me illustrate this further. Who is powerful enough to enter the
house of a strong man and plunder his goods? Only someone even stronger—someone who
could tie him up and then plunder his house.
28 “Itell you the truth, all sin and blasphemy can be forgiven, 29 but anyone who blasphemes
the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven. This is a sin with eternal consequences.” 30 He told them
this because they were saying, “He’s possessed by an evil spirit.”
31 Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see him. They stood outside and sent word for
him to come out and talk with them. 32 There was a crowd sitting around Jesus, and someone
said, “Your mother and your brothers[f] are outside asking for you.” 33 Jesus replied, “Who is
my mother? Who are my brothers?” 34 Then he looked at those around him and said, “Look,
these are my mother and brothers. 35 Anyone who does God’s will is my brother and sister
and mother.”
