Why EBCLA Matters: Hospitality
EBCLA's vision is to become a "Faith Village" where life together reflects God's work in creation. Their mission is to train followers of Jesus who embody reconciliation and outreach.

They aim to create space for everyone in their hearts through unconditional love, as taught by Jesus.
A Primer on Community
The document provides an overview of community and spiritual formation. It discusses how God created community to be good, but it became broken by sin. Jesus came to enact a new creation through the power of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit forms individuals into the image of Christ within community, where people love and support one another. A spiritual community relieves suffering, redeems sins, and continues Christ's mission through the power of the Holy Spirit working in them.
Radical Reorientation: Others
The document discusses reorienting one's thinking and expectations towards the reality of Jesus' message.

It promotes telling an alternative story that sweeps away old myths and brings together the past and present into a coherent whole that shines light on the future.

Love One Another
God has acted throughout history to produce a family who will represent Him to the world.

Perfect Together

Meditating on the word
Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a German Lutheran pastor and theologian who stood against the Nazi regime. He saw meditation on Scripture as essential for Christians. According to Bonhoeffer, meditation allows God's word to dwell within us and speak to us throughout the day. He advocated starting each morning with quiet prayer and Scripture meditation to prepare for the day and allow God to open our hearts before being distracted by the world. Meditation helps Christians know and obey God more fully.

Homily: Ash Wednesday 2019
Deacon Jim Knipper discusses different types of prayer and invites listeners to try a more meditative form of prayer during Lent. Transactional prayers that involve telling God what we want are common, but may not facilitate inner transformation. Jesus taught praying in secret and being still. The Desert Fathers and Mothers practiced quiet, meditative prayer to commune with God. When we listen instead of speak in prayer, God listens and our inner being can reconcile. This type of prayer can foster peace within and reflection in others.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

A talk with a friend
- 1. A Talk with a Friend Pray always. (1 Thessalonians 5:17, paraphrased) 63: A Talk with a Friend 1
- 2. Close your eyes for a minute. Are you thinking about something? What is it? Just like we have thoughts running through our mind all day, we can also learn to pray throughout the day. Prayer is talking to Jesus and letting Jesus talk to you. 63: A Talk with a Friend 2
- 3. The Bible tells us to pray always. That might seem difficult to do, but if we take the time to stop and pray before or while doing something, this is one way that we can include Jesus in our activities. Our prayers don’t have to be long and with many words. Even a simple request for Jesus’ help is enough to connect you to Jesus and His power. We can think of Jesus as a friend whom we talk to throughout the day—someone we can share our joys with, and even our sad moments. 63: A Talk with a Friend 3
- 4. It doesn’t really matter what we are doing, when we bring Jesus into it through our prayers, it is always better. Jesus makes it so! 63: A Talk with a Friend 4
- 5. Action Get three small papers and ask your mommy or daddy to write “Pray Always” on each paper. Decorate these papers however you like. Then ask your parent to help you find three places to put them around your house to remind you to pray. Whenever you see one of the signs, remember to say a little prayer.
