Prayer: May your Word be active and living in our lives, Lord, and may we spread that Word to others. Amen.
Reading: Hebrews 4: 12-16 (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: The beginning of this passage reminds us that God’s Word is living and active. When I read that statement, I immediately thought of camp. One of the things that I feel we do well here is making God’s Word come to life for campers. We act out the stories, we look at how they are connected to our lives today, and we do creative activities that are interactive to make the stories come off the pages of scripture. How does God’s Word come alive to you? I’d be interested to hear about your experiences and maybe we could do something similar at camp to make God’s Word living and active. --Chad Hershberger
