New Life In Christ

NOOMA (20's & 30's)

We Jesus lived with the awareness that God is doing something - right here, right now - and anybody can be a part of it.  He encouraged his listeners to search, to question, to wrestle with the implications of what he was saying and doing.  He inspired, challenged, provoked, comforted, and invited people to be open to God's work in this world.  Wherever he went, whatever he did, Jesus started discussions about what matters most, because for Jesus, God is always inviting us to open our eyes and join in.  

NOOMA is a series of short films that explore our world from the perspective of Jesus.  NOOMA is an invitation to search, question, and join in on a discussion about topics affecting 20's & 30's today.  Topics include:

     - Dealing with low self-worth
     - Seeing people in need and doing something about it
     - How to make difficult decisions in life
     - I'm so busy, I have too much to do!
     - How God answers our prayers
     - Being concerned with what other people think of us
     - What to do when we can't let go of the past
     - How to deal with the loss of a friend or loved one
     - Which job is the "right" job for me?
 
Group Information:
            Thursdays from 7:00-8:00 pm
            Everyone is invited
            Contact Pastor Schultz if interested:  (208) 449-2080

o            “What’s the difference between denominations?” 
o            “Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people?”
