Marysville Nazarene Church
Dirty Work - Sowing Seed
When we choose to become part of a church our private faith becomes public. Our individual passions, gifts, and callings work together to fulfill God’s purpose for our faith family. "Dirty Work" will help shape our personal approach to sharing the good news of Jesus in natural, organic ways. We will discuss preparing the soil, sowing seeds, and pulling weeds – each an integral and messy part of putting our faith into practice. It is planting season and time to start digging!

"If then you are wise, you will show yourself rather as a reservoir than as a canal. For a canal spreads abroad water as it receives it, but a reservoir waits until it is filled before overflowing, and thus communicates, without loss to itself, its superabundant water. In the Church at the present day, we have many canals, few reservoirs." ~ Bernard of Clairvaux
Getting Dirty and Sowing Seed, Part 1
Drink Deeply. If you are not experiencing grace in your own soul, take time to drink deeply of God's grace for you. Spend time meditating on and memorizing Ephesians 2:4-9. Let the truth of God's grace capture your heart again.

Get Reckless. Think of one extravagant and undeserved act of grace you can offer someone in your life who is not a follower of Jesus. Offer it prayerfully and with NO strings attached. If they ask "why", tell them about the grace you have received.
