Later Jesus gave his disciples the following command:
Go into all the world and proclaim the good news
to all people.

When I am weak, He is strong!
The teaching focuses on how God’s strength becomes visible precisely where one feels weak, powerless and insignificant, and how He deliberately chooses the small and despised to shape them into useful instruments. It draws on examples from Gideon, Samson and David, who all had to recognise that their own strength and plans were not enough, but that true victory comes when they walk in faith and surrender to God, who lifts them up and acts through them. We are encouraged to break away from the ‘Jante Law’ and misunderstood humility, so that we can both thank God for the gifts and strength He has placed within us and at the same time give Him the glory, rather than living in pride or self-deprecation. We are encouraged to recognise our powerlessness without God, to make ourselves dependent on Him, to trust fully in the Bible as God’s Word, to let go of our own honour and control, and to act in faith, because we know that God is faithful and will do again what He has already done. The teaching shows how hope in the Lord is an active expectation, interwoven with God’s faithfulness and one’s own experiences with Him, and how that hope provides new strength and ‘springiness’, so that one gains perspective, sees other people’s stories, and can love and serve from God’s viewpoint rather than from one’s own self-centred perspective.Read more about it
The story of Lazarus
The lesson goes through the story of Lazarus in the Gospel of John, chapter 11, verse by verse, and shows how Jesus meets disappointment, grief, doubt and scorn with both compassion and authority. Emphasis is placed on the fact that Jesus deliberately waits until Lazarus has been in the tomb for four days, in order to reveal God’s glory and to show whether there is faith that He truly is the resurrection and the life in the midst of a hopeless situation. We are encouraged to see ourselves reflected in Martha and Mary, who both believe and reproach, and to let Jesus call us by name out of the ‘graveyards’ of life where we have given up hope. At the same time, it is emphasised that the congregation has an important role in ‘unbinding’ those whom Jesus sets free, so that the bonds of the past do not continue to control the future.Read more about it
