36 Parables Discussion on August 18: New Wine in Old Wineskins


Our Encounter Discussions are about getting out into public spaces and creating a dialogue — a forum of honest communication. It is an intentional way to meet new friends, build relationship, and engage our community in a casual environment. More than that, you'll have some great conversation about life and faith.

ABOUT 36 PARABLES
This discussion series is based on a selection of 36 short films depicting Jesus' parables in real life and modern settings. Considering that Jesus told these stories so that we could relate them to our everyday lives, we believe that Jesus reveals himself through such common experiences, and we can encounter Him in the most unlikely places.

We challenge you to step beyond safe and routine faith and discover for yourselve the deep spiritual truths of these often ordinary stories.

THIS WEEK: SPILT MILK
What things do we hang onto in our lives today? In our churches? How do we distinguish the wine from its wineskin?

This week we're watching the short film "Spilt Milk" and then discussing the illustration of putting new wine into old wineskins from Luke 5:36-39. Don't miss this week's discussion at the Staggering Ox this Tuesday, August 18 @ 6:30pm.

JOIN US AND BRING A FRIEND
Each of the five discussions in this series stands on it's own. So even if you're just curious, drop by and bring a friend. Arrive early at 6:00pm and grab a sandwich with us.
