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.
New York Times bestselling author Rob Bell made a series of films called ‘the NOOMA films”. There are 24 of them. They are a series of short films (10-13 minutes each) that explore our world from a perspective of Jesus. NOOMA is an invitation to search, question, and join the discussion. We will be watching a short film from 7-8 p.m. the first Wednesday of every month in the library after the potluck dinner with the exception of November. The dates will be: October 3, November 14, and December 5th. We will continue into 2019 if enough people attend. The videos can be previewed on You Tube should you want to see what we will be doing!
