  • Introduction to Community Groups
    INTRODUCTION TO COMMUNITY GROUPS WHAT IS A COMMUNITY GROUP? Community groups are small gatherings of people (Christian and non) that meet regularly for friendship, accountability, study and prayer, laughter, and occasionally tears. Community groups are an essential expression of the mission of Mars Hill Church. They’re a place where we learn more about Jesus and life together. They’re the place where we wrestle with the truths of the Bible and encourage one another toward the life that God intends for us. Each community group is unique, shaped by its neighborhood and the people who attend. However, you can expect a weekly gathering in a residence that involves food, conversation, prayer, discussion for applying the Bible to practical living, and service in the neighborhood. At the heart of each community group is the desire to see an authentic community marked by love for Jesus, one another, and the neighborhood. WHY SHOULD I JOIN A COMMUNITY GROUP? The God of the Bible is a Trinitarian God who is one and three persons: Father, Son, and Spirit. God has made us in his image, which means we are made for community and friendship. And when we are not living in community we suffer because life in a sinful world is too complex and tempting to journey alone. Therefore, community groups are a place where we can live in relationship with one another through the ups and downs of life. HOW DO I GET CONNECTED TO A COMMUNITY GROUP? The easiest way to get connected is on Sunday: before or after the service, stop by the info desk at the campus where you attend.

  • 1 Ted Kirnbauer Luke 20:1-26 6/18/17 Jesus Had Entered
    1 Ted Kirnbauer Luke 20:1-26 6/18/17 Jesus had entered Jerusalem on Sunday with robes and branches laid before Him and shouts of praise for “the King who comes in the name of the Lord” (Lk. 19:28 ff.). He then left the city and returned the following day (Monday) when He cleansed the temple (Lk. 19:45-48). The events in 20:1-21:36 occur on Tuesday. In the controversies that follow, we see that Jesus is in control of the events surrounding His final visit to Jerusalem. 20:1 On one of the days while He was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders confronted Him, 20:2 and they spoke, saying to Him, "Tell us by what authority You are doing these things, or who is the one who gave You this authority?" 20:3 Jesus answered and said to them, "I will also ask you a question, and you tell Me: 20:4 "Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men?" 20:5 They reasoned among themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' He will say, 'Why did you not believe him?' 20:6 "But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us to death, for they are convinced that John was a prophet." 20:7 So they answered that they did not know where it came from. 20:8 And Jesus said to them, "Nor will I tell you by what authority I do these things." Luke 20:1-8 centers on Jesus’ authority.

  • The Gospel of Luke
    Cornerstone Bible Studies, Inc. The Gospel of Luke Lesson 35 The triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem publicly marked the coming of God Incarnate to His people as their long-expected Messiah, Redeemer and King. While there was excitement and great joy among the people, there was deep sadness in the Son of God, for He knew that His own people would neither recognize nor receive Him. As Jesus approached the city, He wept over it and lamented “…if you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes. The days will come when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side. They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you” (Luke 19:41-44). This judgment of God resulted in the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 and the withdrawal of the commission of Israel as God’s ambassadors of salvation to the world. That commission would be passed on to Gentiles, who would believe in Jesus as the Christ. Before beginning to study, ask God to provide insight and understanding so that you may mature as an ambassador of God’s mercy and grace to a needy world. 1. Read Luke 20:1-8. A.

  • 1 Ted Kirnbauer Luke 14:1-24 1/22/17 14:1 It Happened That When
    1 Ted Kirnbauer Luke 14:1-24 1/22/17 14:1 It happened that when He went into the house of one of the leaders of the Pharisees on the Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching Him closely. 14:2 And there in front of Him was a man suffering from dropsy. 14:3 And Jesus answered and spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not?" 14:4 But they kept silent. And He took hold of him and healed him, and sent him away. 14:5 And He said to them, "Which one of you will have a son or an ox fall into a well, and will not immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?" 14:6 And they could make no reply to this. 14:1-6 provides another instance where the leaders are unable to discern the time (12:56-57). In spite of Jesus’ many miracles and incessant warnings, the religious leadership refused to hear, see, and believe. Jesus was asked to join one of the leaders of the Pharisees for a meal on the Sabbath. The meal was probably the midday meal, since bread was the main course (14:1) – a food which could be prepared the day before to avoid breaking the Sabbath. The mood is clear from the beginning: the Pharisees were watching Jesus carefully to find a reason to accuse Him. There, in front of Jesus, stood a man with dropsy. Dropsy is a condition where the limbs and tissues swell due to excess body fluids.

  • Luke 20:27-38 Marriage & the Resurrection 1 Where Do You Look for Hope for the Future? Where Do You Rest Your Hope and Dream
    Luke 20:27-38 Marriage & The Resurrection Where do you look for hope for the future? Where do you rest your hope and dreams? In whom do you look to find your security? Do you rest your hopes and dreams in your marriage, or in your children? Where I grew up the culture was geared towards parents being proud about their children, and in a way rest upon them for their hopes and dreams. Maybe you heard it said, My son the Doctor, or My son the Lawyer… and it just wasn’t the mothers or father’s saying this but the children, my peers who mocked the cultural pressure that they felt to be a successful surgeon, or a member of a significant firm. He’s a good son… his mother should be proud! Our Gospel Lesson has Jesus teaching in the temple area. Since the early summer our texts have had Jesus traveling to Jerusalem. And now he has finally arrived. In Chapter 19 we read of the Palm Sunday events, him weeping over Jerusalem, Jesus cleansing the Temple, and in Chapter 20 he teaches there. The Chief Priests and Teachers of the Law question his authority to do the things he was doing. We read the parable of the wicked tenants, a parable directed at these very teachers of the law and leaders of the Jews. They question him in a way to expose him to ridicule, they question him about paying taxes to Caesar. The Priests challenge Jesus, the teachers of the Law challenge Jesus, the Pharisees challenge him; they all take their turn thinking confidently they will be able to stump the notorious rabbi.

When Jesus journeyed for the last time to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover, He was ready to complete his work on earth. For three years He had taught the people, preaching the gospel of the kingdom and demonstrating with signs and wonders that He was the Messiah, the Anointed One, promised by the Old Testament prophets. Now He would suffer, die, then triumph over death by rising the third day. Jesus had previously resisted attempts to be made king (John 6:15), and He had cautioned his disciples to tell no man He was the Christ or tell of the vision of the transfiguration (Matt.

    BIBLE DISCUSSION GROUP STUDY QUESTIONS In preparation for Sunday, March 29, 2009 Passage: Luke 20:19-40 Memory Passage: Romans 8:34 TODAY: From your study this past week, what is one thing that impressed you that can be of help in your life? DAY 1 – PRAY FOR INSIGHT READ THE WHOLE PASSAGE (a) Read Luke 20:19-20. Look back on the previous passage to see why they wanted to lay hands on Jesus right then. What was the reason? What kept them from responding immediately? (b) What does it say about their own beliefs that they were not willing to respond openly to Jesus? (c) Their response was to spy and sneak around. Who is the governor that they wish to hand Jesus over to (Luke 3:1)? What does it say about their hatred for Jesus that they were willing to use the Romans to further their desires? (d) Think about it: When we truly believe something is wrong how are we supposed to act (1Peter 3:13-17)? When we know something is wrong and we still want to do it what do we often do (John 3:19-21)? Is there anything that you are doing in the dark? What is it? (e) Something to do: Read John 3:19-21. When sin is hidden, it eats away at us and controls us, but when we expose it to the light it loses its power. If there is sin in your life that you are hiding, confess it to God and receive forgiveness (1 John 1:9; Proverbs 28:13).

  • Jesus and Political Activism Luke 20:20-26 Day 1
    CBCGB Devotional Guide: Luke 20:20-26 Feb 6-11, 2012 p1 Jesus and Political Activism Luke 20:20-26 Day 1: Luke 20:20,26 Setting a trap for Jesus The religious elite keep their eye on Jesus. Since he soundly embarrassed them, they now send agents, incognito, pretending to be in search of spiritual guidance while looking to trap Jesus in some politically volatile pronouncement, so that they can accuse him of political sedition. One of the major challenges facing the early Church was to account for Jesus’ crucifixion. No one expected a crucified Messiah. In the social and political unrest of first-century Palestine, a series of Jewish militants stepped forward to throw out the occupying Roman forces. Whenever one succeeded initially, speculation would swell: “Might this be Messiah, the one through whom God will deliver us?” Eventually, the candidate would be arrested and executed, or would die in battle, and the rebellion ground to a halt. Luke acknowledges the obvious – the Romans did execute Jesus for political insurgency – but this case was different: Jesus is innocent; the charges are bogus, fabricated by deceitful opponents. What does this text say to us today, who begin from an entirely different premise? For us, crucifixion does not belie Jesus’ claim to be Messiah; just the opposite. Luke’s defense has proven so effective that we begin from this Gospel’s premise: the crucifixion of Jesus establishes his claim to be Messiah, and underscores the malice and deceit of his accusers. So how does this text apply to us? At least two ways.
