Miracle of the Mundane
| |
The mission of our church is “We use our resources, tangible and intangible, to minimize human suffering and enhance human well-being. This is godliness to us.”
The “Jesus Before Christianity” series addresses the crucial need for clarity about what it truly means to follow Jesus Christ, beyond the label “Christian.”
“Jesus goes to Peter’s house, where Peter’s mother‑in‑law is suffering from a high fever. They ask Jesus to help her. He stands over her, rebukes the fever, and it leaves her. Immediately she gets up and begins to serve them.”
The miracle in the mundane teaches the us to slow down, pay attention, and expect God to move in the everyday rhythms of life. When routines hold steady, that too is grace.
- God sees the everyday
- God cares about the everyday
- God works in the everyday
- Ministry must meet people in the everyday
· The mundane matters because people matter.
· Reminds us that nothing in our lives is too ordinary for God’s attention.
· The blessing of the ordinary is this: God is already there, waiting to be noticed.
Ministry happens in kitchens, living rooms, and hospital rooms. The miracle in the mundane teaches us that ministry is not confined to the sanctuary.
The church must honor the mundane and ordinary as a place where God works.
God restores people so they can reengage with life and purpose.
When I look back, I see a pattern: God has been faithful in ways I didn’t always recognize at the time.
“I’m Grateful Things Are As Well As They Are.”
