Tonight we resumed our New Life in Christ course after a 4-week break for Christmas and all its surrounding hubub. I was very pleased with the turnout and the participation, particularly the 6 "new" folks (coming from Alpha). We made a few adjustments (appointing group leaders, for one) that seemed to improve the group dynamics. This week's topic was Jesus as Lord of my life. I was glad to hear some of the questions that arose, both about theological issues and about how these truths play out in our lives. I find myself coming away with a renewed conviction that my life is not my own. Because He created me and because He ransomed me from death, Jesus has all the rights to my life. Good thing, because He's the One with the power to do things right, too.
