April 20, 2024 - Saturday 10:00AM MPR 1 Speaker
 
Speaker: Mike Vestal
 
Relationships are precious.
Relationships are hard.
 
Relationships with others will be hard when relationships with God are not what they ought to be.
 
Mentoring - Wise, experienced, and Godly advice from a friend and brother
Some people are very wise, Godly, and experienced but not a friend.
 
Everyone needs someone in their life like this
 
Discipling - a follower, a learner, an understudy, and he seeks to be as close to the mentor as possible
Some people who just follow are groupies and some follow loosely
 
John 1-11
Jesus is ultimate relationship guru
Relationships are precious, but relationships are hard, but not in the Godhead.
 
Hebrews 2:17-18
 
We have to take care of our relationship with God!
 
John 2 
first miracle recorded
"Whatever he says to you, do it," Mary said
Jesus is dealing with desperate people; Jesus is present
Running out of wine was a major breach of protocol and could be taken to court
 
John 3
Jesus is a mentor to religious people
Nicodemus
Sometimes religious people don't get what it means to follow Jesus
We have to get over ourselves
 
John 4
Problem people - women at the well
The two people could not be more apart
Friend of tax collectors and sinners
"Sinners are loved here"
A village comes to near Jesus because of a woman
 
John 5
Verses 1-11 Jesus is a mentor to a sick and lonely man
You will never look at the face of another person that does not matter to God
No one to help me get in the water to get healed
 
John 7
Jesus is a mentor to unbelieving people
His own brothers did not believe in Him
Few are capable of saying more hurtful and harmful things than our own family
 
John 8
Jesus is a mentor to sinful people
Woman caught in adultery
Behold a lamb that takes away the sins of the world
Jesus is bilingual - speaks grace and truth! And so ought we
 
John 9
Jesus mentors mistreated people
Man born blind
Only person that really sees was blind
 
John 11
A mentor to the grieving
Grieved as He hung on cross too
Lazarus is dead
Martha needed truth, a reminder of the resurrection
Mary needed to weep
 
The Seven Desires of Every Heart - book
Psalm 37:4, 43:4

Everyone wants to be heard and understood


Everyone needs affirmation

Who you are and what you do are valued


Psalm 8



Everyone needs blessing, to be cherished


Every person needs safety

We seek to give them that in Christ



Every person needs to be touched

Jesus went out of the way to touch lepers



Every person needs to belong


Every person needs to be chosen

Jesus has chosen us
