i dream of reconnect... relevant Reconnect – October 4, 2009 Text: Matthew 13:44-46 Key Thought: To be relevant is to keep connecting our own life-giving experience of God with our common experience as people searching for meaning and hope. [Jesus said,] “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.” Matthew 13:44-46, NLT
