Nurture Time
Please use these suggested scriptures, questions, and activities to help you explore your faith.
January 23 – Third Sunday after Epiphany: Read 1 Corinthians 12: 12-31a “There is one body, but it has many parts. But all its many parts make up one body. It is the same with Christ.” Each of us has an appointed role as part of the body of Christ. This week, consider the role you have and how you carry out its responsibilities.
January 30 – Fourth Sunday after Epiphany: Read Jeremiah 1: 4-10 “Before I formed you in your mother’s body, I chose you.” God chose Jeremiah to be God’s messenger to the nations. Though Jeremiah insisted he was too young, God gave him the words to say. What has God called you to speak to others about God’s way? What excuses keep you from sharing God’s word with them?
