Zip it - Complaining
We conclude our short series, Zip It, by examining how complaining is like a rotten smell that permeates the air around us. We want to be a people who find our life in Jesus, and from that source speak in such a way that our words are like fresh air in a culture that connects by complaining.

The Bread of Life (John 6:22-71)
Jesus says he can provide a bread that will sustain us, giving life to the world and giving us eternal life. But he draws a strong reaction from the crowd when he explains that it is his own body that is this bread. We see that Jesus is speaking of believing in him; to believe in Jesus is to eat this bread. But we see as well that eternal life comes at the cost of our own desires; we must give ourselves to Jesus.

First Things First
Jesus teaches us not to worry about our basic needs--food, water and clothing--because if God takes care of birds that don't have jobs, or the fields that burn up, how much more would He take care of those He died for? God wants us to keep our priorities straight. We are His priority so we should make Him ours. We are to aim for, and keep striving for His kingdom and righteousness--to be under God's control and do what He wants us to do.

You're Invited
The parable we're looking at this weekend is one of the last few Jesus told in the days just before His crucifixion. The atmosphere around Jerusalem is charged with tension as the confrontations between Jesus and the religious leaders of the day grow more heated. Matthew 22:45 tells us that they KNEW Jesus was talking about them! And so they were determined to destroy Him. Jesus gives them one more story ... one more invitation. In a long series of invitations that has begun with the prophets, we are invited to the king's house! The preparations have been made, the table is spread, the celebration is about to begin - and we're all invited - just one item remains - my "RSVP" - your "RSVP". The King waits for a response! Key Passage: Matthew 22:1-14

Christ and the Meals of His People
Meals are about a lot more than just good food. They also facilitate relational intimacy. Because of that you can learn a lot about a person by looking at who they choose to eat with. Likewise, you can learn a lot about God by looking at who Jesus chooses to eat with. Though Jesus is no longer here in the flesh he is still present and still hosting a meal for his invited guests. This meal is known as Communion, The Lord's Supper, or the Eucharist. It is a meal rich in meaning and profound in significance. Listen in as we look into this meal together.
