BE Excellent WITH & IN The Word of God

BE Excellent WITH & IN The Word of God.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
John 1:1

​​The Word is the Bible. The Word = Jesus = the Living Word.

​The beginning is difficult to wrap your head around.  Then, John explains that the Good News of the Gospel is that Jesus was divine and existed before the creation of the world.  BEFORE our beginning.

John, one of first three disciples of Jesus had a unique relationship with Jesus and he gives us a close glimpse into the life of Jesus.  He was in his inner circle.  John's intent during the early days of the church were to help understand who Jesus was, and IS, and that we need His salvation to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

In the case of the Bible, God, and Jesus, we can define "The Word"
​Written Word of God
God's Word
God and Jesus are One
Therefore,
Jesus is The Word

Today's challenge is to take time to be WITH and IN the Word:
BE Excellent WITH & IN The Word of God

​Find time and take actions to BE Excellent by being WITH Jesus and IN His Word!!
You'll be glad you did!

​"40-Days of Excellence" Journal
CHALLENGE
We invite you on a quest to dig deeper and learn about the meaning of the death and resurrection of Friend Jesus.  Over the next 40 days (of this Lenten season), join us in this Journal Challenge.  You want to "give something up" (we recommend noise in your life:  social media, limited news time, etc.).  Instead of focusing on what you can't have, let's focus on what we CAN HAVE walking with Jesus through the prophets and disciples through the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

Here is What To Do
1) Start by scheduling quiet time into your schedule every day for 40 days.
2)  Get a Journal and entitle it:  "40 Days of Excellence"
3) Get your Bible out (or use the YouVersion Bible app) and write out the questions and scripture mentioned in the our blogs, (you can go back and review the blog posts)
4)  Around Day 30, journal what the characteristics of BEcoming an EXCELLENT Christian can look like in your life.

We promise you, this will be one of the most enriching studies you can do.
BE dedicated, set boundaries, and you will discover EXCELLENCE in ​Jesus, Others and Yourself
JOY!!

Please Note:  If you are joining us well into the 40 Day Challenge, like God, we will meet you where you are at!  
​No stress.  No worries.  We're just happy you are coming along for the journey.
