Invitation to a Journey
Session 4: The Image of Christ for the Sake of the World
based on the book Invitation to a Journey, by: M. Robert Mulholland Jr.
Bless the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! He has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing that comes from heaven. God chose us in Christ to be holy and blameless in God’s presence before the creation of the world. God destined us to be his adopted children through Jesus Christ because of his love. This was according to his goodwill and plan 6 and to honor his glorious grace that he has given to us freely through the Son whom he loves.
Ephesians 1:3-6 (CEB)
Welcome to Session 4 of Invitation to a Journey.
Before watching each video session, I encourage you to read the corrosponding chapters in the book which you can order here. I also invite you to have a pen and journal handy as we will begin each week with a contemplative Lectio Divina exercise using a related passage of scripture for each week. You may want to pause the video at various points to journal and reflect on your own spirtual journey as it relates to the themes we are discussing. I also invite you to use the comments section on this blog post to share any of your own experiences of how this material is resonating in your own life.
Below the video you will find a PDF of the notes, lectio reading, reflection questions, and next steps for each week. Feel free to download them as you follow along with the video.
Be sure to read chapters 3 & 4 before watching this session.
May God richly bless you as you enter into this journey toward a deeper relationship with Christ.
