Taking the Sermon Into Our Week 

Scripture of the Week: 2 Cor 4: 1-18

From the Sermon:

Kintsugi is __________ objects being repaired with gold. 

It is by our own human choices that we _____ the Gospel.

Our God is the God of _______________________.

For Paul, this isn’t just physical light that we see with our eyes, but the light of the _____________ of God that can shine into the darkness of our ________.

What the world would define as ________ - that is what God uses for blessing. And what the world defines as whole, that looks like _______________ to God.

When we have died in Christ, we become a new _____________.

You have a ____________ to share.

Reflection Questions:

Have you ever known someone who had the light of Christ shining out of them?

What prevents us from shining the light of Christ?

Are we going to let our brokenness stop us from proclaiming the light and love of God?

Prayer:

Lord, teach us to see ourselves as you see us. If there are places in us that are broken and have caused harm in our relationship with you, let your Truth come to be known so healing can take place. If there are things about us that the world says are broken, may we be reminded that those cracks allow us to share your treasure with the world. Use us, O Lord, we pray. Amen.
