"Looking Like Christ, Living Like Christ"
How do we persevere in the face of suffering? For first-century Christians who were persecuted by their neighbors, staying focused on their "living hope" was hard to do. The Apostle Peter wanted to remind them of their rich identity in Christ and encourage them to respond to their sufferings as Christ did.

WOMEN'S BIBLE STUDY - FALL SESSION
We will begin our fall study on Wednesday, September 14th at 10a.m. in the Gathering Room.
The topic is What is God Like? What do you think about God? Is He just an impersonal force? A higher power? Where is He when things don't make sense? Why does it sometimes seem like He doesn't intervene? Join us and explore together what the Bible tells us about God. This study will help you navigate information about God and decide for yourself who He is and how He interacts with people. Discover the God who is interested in knowing you - and how you can know Him in a way that will transform your life forever. Come and bring a friend. Questions? Call Mary Sund at 763-233-2417 or Linda Krantz at 763-476-0587.
Click the Link above to join the Men’s Saturday morning Bible Study – 7:30 a.m. by Zoom! Mission in Motion begins Saturday, September 10th.
God has called all believers to go and make disciples of all nations, yet there remain thousands of people groups around the world who have never heard the name of Jesus Christ. The harvest is plentiful, so why are the laborers so few?
Living on mission isn't just for "missionaries" - we all have a role in sharing Christ to the ends of the earth. In this series, Claude Hickman and Todd Ahrend of The Traveling Team help us rediscover our God-given purpose in life and examine ways that each of us can be involved in God's great mission.
Please contact Gordy Engel at gordye@thefoursome.com or Dan Oie at doie@redeemerwayzata.org if you have questions.
