NT2020: On Being a People of: "Not So With You" | Jaci Anderson

Mark 10:35-45

Jaci Anderson. In this week's reading of Mark 7-11, we see Jesus exhort his followers to be a people of "Not so with you" compared to the ways of empire.  We consider why Jesus insists that we suffer and how to endure the suffering that comes with being an ambassador for the Kingdom of God.  Together we engage the contemplative practice of “Palms Up” to consider the value of the suffering we are currently enduring as a people of "Not so with you". 

“Palms Up” Exercise includes 4 steps: (1) Show Up, (2) Pay Attention, (3) Cooperate with God, (4) Release Outcome. For more information check out palmsup.co
