Sunday Gathering - August 9th

 

Because the church’s building is still in a level 3 evacuation zone, we will not be gathering there on Sunday morning. Instead, we will gather for Sunday worship at Faith Bible Church at 1:00 pm.

 

Address: 440 W Cora Ave, Spokane, WA 99205

On August 1st, our Spokane community suffered a nearly incomprehensible disaster as fires tore through our city — including the neighborhood we love and call home, where our church building is also located.

 

To date, 6 families have suffered a complete loss of their home, property, and possessions, and nearly half of our roughly 400-member congregation has been displaced, living in temporary housing due to necessary evacuations — with friends, relatives, in hotels, or other accommodations.

 

Many people and churches have asked how they can specifically help, and we have set up a Fire Relief Fund for our church.

 

These resources will be used to care for the immediate, mid-term, and long-term needs of ITC members, and as the Lord gives opportunity, for the good and upbuilding of others in our area.

 

Although there is much tragedy, we grieve with great hope because of the goodness and faithfulness of the Lord.

 

If you or your church desire to help and serve our church and those we're connected to, please direct your giving to the Indian Trail Church – Fire Relief Fund.

Romans 13:8-10

November 8, 2020 Speaker: Kyle Schwahn Series: Romans

Passage: Romans 13:8–10

SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION

- Romans 13:8-10 begins by talking about debts, but is that what this section of Scripture is about? How can love be a debt? If love is a kind of debt we owe others, when is that debt satisfied or finished?

- How would you define love? If the definition toward our neighbors includes doing things in another’s best interest, how do we know what that is?

- How are we even capable of loving another? (Who has loved us first, and how?) Not only this part of Romans, but the entire Bible emphasizes the importance of love. Read 1 John 3:16-18. Why is love so important for us as individuals?

- Read Luke 10:25-37. What is Jesus saying about who our neighbors are and what our debt of love to them looks like? Is doing no wrong to a neighbor (Romans 13:10) mean we never do anything our neighbors would not define as in their best interest? Who decides that, and how? Read Ephesians 4:11-16. What does it mean to speak the truth in love? Why is love so important to the church of Christ?

- Who are you going to love this week? Can you share how you intend to accomplish that?
