We are on a journey in our church. This week starts our summer reading. We want to go all the way through the New Testament. This week’s reading is the Gospel of Luke. All of it.

The challenge before us is to prepare the way of the Lord. WE need to be prepared. We need to make the way expedient for our Lord.

The need of our hour is to understand the Lord is calling to his Church. We are watered down as an American Church and we need to see HIS call once again. The invitation is to read the New Testament with fresh eyes, and keep the conversation going this summer. We want to TALK through the texts as we journey this summer.

So… prepare the way. The Lord is calling. Hear this sweet, wonderful, invitation!

“In the desert
someone is shouting,
‘Get the road ready
for the Lord!
Make a straight path
for him.
⁵ Fill up every valley
and level every mountain
and hill.
Straighten the crooked paths
and smooth out
the rough roads.
⁶ Then everyone will see
the saving power of God.’” (Luke 3:4-6, CEB)
