Prayer: Be our guide as we try to understand you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
Reading: Romans 8: 12-17 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: This Sunday is Trinity Sunday as we think about the Three in One- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This passage really ties together the idea of the Trinity. We cry out to the Father, we are reminded of Jesus’ sacrifice for us, and we are reminded of the guidance of the Spirit. How do you describe the Trinity? It is a question I ask in staff interviews. The Trinity is hard to explain, but if an applicant can describe it in easy-to-understand terms, they are most likely to explain hard concepts to kids. As we talk about the Trinity this Sunday, keep a look out in your life for the ways you intersect with the creator, redeemer, and sustainer. --Chad Hershberger
