“Some people shy away from religion because they are afraid that they may be trading in one set of chains for another. Religion can do that to people, but not a relationship with Christ. Christ sets us free!”
- King Duncan

On Sunday, Vikki preached on the theme of being unmasked. We came away realizing the story of Zacchaeus is about much more than the “small dude up a big tree.”

Some questions to ponder upon…

-What are the masks you hide behind? What are the trees you climb to view what’s happening from a distance? That risks or hazards are you willing to take to let go of them? Read Jesus’ mission once again in Luke 19:10 and hear him saying it to you.

-How might you use humor and humility to let down your guard and let Jesus find you?

-Who do you accept hospitality from? Who do you give hospitality to? What does the story of Jesus and Zacchaeus teach you about hospitality and about relationships?

-Can love rescue you? Do you need it to? If not, see question #1. We are free to change because of God’s love!
