Just Watch

"He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it was written: "The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight to the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor." Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him. He began by saying to them, "Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing." Luke 4 : 16 - 20

A Thought from Your New Wordsmith

Hey everyone! It’s me, Katerina.

Rachael has generously offered me the responsibility of maintaining your friendly neighborhood InterVarsity blog, and I have graciously accepted. Although my time here at Mines and IV has been small, I love the community of large and small groups and am excited to share what we learn from God and each other. 

I’d like to tell you a short story, if you don’t mind.

Just Generosity

"'I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm - neither hot nor cold - I am about to spit you out of my mouth.'" Revelation 3 : 15 - 16
