Scattered Worship | Sunday, June 14, 2020
Welcome!
We’re no less the church when we’re scattered than we are when we’re gathered. While there’s nothing good in and of disease itself, we want The Village Church to embrace the interruptions and inconveniences that come along with the coronavirus as a sacred disruption in our personal discipleship. The Father longs for his people to worship him, not merely in a certain city, on a certain mountaintop, or in a certain building, but everywhere in spirit and in truth (John 4:21-24). May we demonstrate that in our homes and wherever we can (or can’t!) go over the coming weeks.
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
- Hebrews 10:23-25
What you’ll find below is by no means a replacement for the body being together in the flesh. However, we do hope to stir you up to love and good works for one another and your neighbors, that in this season you might be spurred to confess Christ as your hope all the more in the midst of sickness and uncertainty.
The family and the mission go on - through your family and your mission as disciples each day.

Judgment for Idolatry
Micah 1:1-16
—
The heart of human rebellion is that we forsake God, and to forsake the Lord is to heap judgment.
The verdict brings judgment.
The charge is unfaithfulness.
The response is lament.

Reflect | Repent | Respond
Do you know the wages of your sin and rebellion against God?
Can you point to specific areas of rebellion that demand the judgment of God?
Do you cling to God’s mercy through Christ as your only hope to escape judgment and gain life?

Benediction
As we go out this week, may God allow us to feel the weight of our rebel hearts, and may that weight lead us to embrace the mercy of crucified Christ as grace upon grace.
