This Week’s Text: 1 Corinthians 15
The resurrection of Jesus doesn’t just secure our future—it transforms our present. Because Christ is risen, we now live with a new identity, new purpose, and new power by His grace. We’re called to stand firm, live boldly, and abound in the work of the Lord, knowing that our lives are not in vain.
Join us tomorrow morning at 8:00, 9:30, & 11:00 am!
This Week’s Set List
Worship is an outward expression coming from the overflow of the heart. At Providence, our services are times of intentional celebration and remembrance of what Jesus has done for us. Through the songs we sing, we express what we believe about God and confess our need for him.
Here’s our set list for the weekend:
All My Boast is in Jesus
Behold Him
Only a Holy God
There is a Fountain
This Week’s Prayer Focus
As part of our worship and fellowship together, we pray over specific local churches, schools, missionary partners, and unreached people groups. This week, you can join us in praying for:
Local Church: Christ Redeemer Church (New Hampshire)
Local School: Roach Middle School
Outreach Partner: Spoken
Unreached People Group: The Kapu People of India
Study Guide for Luke Luke 24:1-12
How To Use This Guide
This guide is designed to take you deeper into the points of the Sunday morning message and the passage we’re studying each week. The guide is divided into two parts.
Read, Reflect, and Respond guides you through your own personal study of the message text, preferably before you arrive for the service on Sunday morning. This section uses the HEAR journaling method, which is an acronym for highlight, explain, apply, and respond.
Discuss With Others is designed to help you take the things you’ve learned in your personal study and the message and discuss them within the context of your small group.
Read, Reflect, & Respond
Highlight: Begin your Bible reading time with prayer then highlight verses that stand out to you as you read the passage. Note any words or ideas you want to dive deeper into and pay attention to repeated or emphasized words and phrases. This is the “observation” process – looking at the who, what, when, where of the passage.
Explain: What is the context of the passage and the author’s intended meaning within that context? This is where you can consult a study Bible or commentary. What did the passage mean to the original listeners? Was there something in their context that was being addressed? This step is to understand what the meaning of the passage was then before you seek to understand what the applied principle is today.
Apply: What is the principle to live by today? This is when you turn the focus to your own life, setting, and culture. What is the principle that applies to your own context?
Respond: How will you respond to the application in your relationships and/or situations this week? This recognizes that the Bible is not just a set of truths to know, but is actually a guide to live by.
Discuss With Others
Use your community group time to have some conversation around the message. Start your discussion by inviting someone to read the passage aloud in its entirety.
