Sunday, November 6: Signs

John 5:1–18

This Sunday we’re reading a passage of scripture in which a man who has been an invalid for 38 years is asked a critical question: “Do you want to be healed?”

That’s the sort of question we might assume is a ridiculous question, until we know that it’s Jesus asking the question, then we might assume it’s rhetorical. Most likely though, it’s just a straightforward question. Do you actually want to be healed?

Do you want the part of you that has defined you for the majority of your life to be taken from you? Do you want to be without excuse? Do you want your community to be fundamentally changed? The expectations on you to be dramatically altered? Your day-to-day life to be entirely different? Do you want to be healed?

Jesus’ invitation to be healed, either physically, or spiritually, will have consequences on the way we live our lives forever after.

Join us this Sunday as we see another example of Jesus’ power over sickness and death, and consider the consequences of being healed.

See you Sunday!

Service times are at 9:30 & 11:00. If you can’t make it in person, you can watch live at those times.
