Luke 14:15—24
SUNDAY SCHOOL SUNDAY, JULY 29TH BRILL CHAPEL 9:30 AM PARABLE OF THE GREAT DINNER
Some time ago a study was undertaken to address the question “What would Jesus eat?” The study investigated common foods of Jesus' day in order to determine what was most likely a regular part of his diet. They also record different times when Jesus ate in homes or ate with his disciples, but no specific menu is mentioned on those occasions. The Gospels note that Jesus shared a typical Passover meal with his disciples (Luke 22:15) and ate fish after his resurrection (24:41-43). A more important issue involving Jesus' eating habits, according to the Gospels, is whom he ate with. These include Matthew (also known as Levi) the tax collector, in whose house Jesus ate along with “a large company of tax collectors and sinners” (Luke 5:29). He also ate with unnamed Pharisees (Luke 11:37; 1-3,14:1-24), with various “tax collectors and sinners” (Luke 15:1,2), with Martha and Mary (Luke 10: 12:38-42), (John 12:1-3), and with his disciples (as noted above). In fact, Jesus was criticized as being a “glutton” (Luke 7:34.) Jesus' eating habits reveal his desire to reach out to all people both sinners who knew they were sinners and sinners such as the Pharisees whose self-righteousness blinded them to the truth about their condition. Those habits highlight Jesus' purpose for coming into the world. As he told another tax collector, Zacchaeus, “For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost” (Luke 19:10). Fretta M. will bless us on the piano at 9:15. You don't want to miss it. Dr. Jim West, just back from Alaska, will lead us this Sunday.

PHYSICAL ACTIVITY: AN IMPORTANT STRATEGY FOR MAINTAINING INDEPENDENCE THURSDAY, AUGUST 2, 2018 2:30 PM COFFEE SHOP Physical activity is more than going to exercise class or participating in sports. It is a part of our daily life. As we get older, how we choose to engage in physical activity changes.

Please join me for some refreshments, a brief presentation about physical activity in older adults and how you can help me better understand this important issue. After my presentation there will be a drawing for door prizes. If you have any questions before the presentation, please give me a call. I look forward to seeing you on August 2nd.

COUNTRY SINGER ERIN MICHELLE FRIDAY, AUGUST 3RD 7:00 PM GRAND BALLROOM At the tender age of 3, Erin Michelle developed a love for music. Having a mom as a music teacher she couldn’t help but be surrounded by it! Growing up in Oklahoma, Erin was involved in anything musical, entertaining audiences at local and statewide festivals, competing in the regional and state competitions, and volunteering to entertain at events such as United Way. All of these events proved that Erin was born to entertain. This began the journey that would lead her to Nashville. Of course there were a few stops along the way. College offered Erin a broad array of opportunities to pursue her dream of becoming an entertainer. While attending Northern OK College, Erin was able to tour London with the World Traveling Roustabouts, entertain on Carnival Cruise Ships as a featured soloist, and tour with Richard Sheldon’s: Oprah a la Carte. After graduating college, Erin packed up her car and set forth on the journey of pursuing her dream! Now as a Nashville resident, Erin entertains local audiences at Tootsies, Second Fiddle, The Wildhorse Saloon, Fuel Second Ave, Dave & Busters- Opening for Chris Young, and Music City Bar & Grill.
