(March) Session one—Bread, vine and light: Abiding with us (John 6, 8 and 15)
We begin this session by rooting and grounding ourselves in the story of Moses at the Burning Bush, learning about God’s holy name, I AM—a name that holds all of time and space, all that was and all that is and all that will be, past, present and future. From there, we will explore three of Jesus’s “I AM” statements: “I am the bread of life;” “I am the true vine,” and “I am the light of the world.” Each of these declarations bring to the fore the ways that God, whose name is “I AM,” abides with God’s people, providing, nurturing and sustaining us in day-to-day life.
