We are Beloved - Beloved Listening

New Beginnings UMC Sermons

Listen to Him! It is a message from God that as Disciples we are called to be listeners in this world. When we listen we clearly hear are calling to love and worship God. It is also in listening that we will hear the Gospel message and go and share that message with the world.

Key Points

1. Disciples are called to listen to Jesus.
2. Listening to Jesus leads to us knowing we are beloved.
3. Listening requires being still, unplugged, patient, and giving Jesus control.

Self-Reflective Thoughts for the Week Ahead

1. When have you avoided being present to an experience by focusing on another task and staying busy?
2. How do you listen to Jesus and what makes this listening a challenge?
3. How many times does God tell you that you are beloved before you can hear this news?
