THE RAGAMUFFIN GOSPEL by Brennan Manning

Many believers feel stunted in their Christian growth. We beat ourselves up over our failures and, in the process, pull away from God because we subconsciously believe He tallies our defects and hangs His head in disappointment. In this newly repackaged edition Brennan Manning reminds us that nothing could be further from the truth. The Father beckons us to Himself with a “furious love” that burns brightly and constantly. Only when we truly embrace God’s grace can we bask in the joy of a gospel that enfolds the most needy of His flock—the “ragamuffins.” The world assigns value to people using measurable standards. Someone is a successful student if she receives A’s. Someone is a strong athlete if he runs five miles a day. The Lord, however, knows nothing of standards. The Ragamuffin Gospel was inspired by Brennan Manning after he discovered firsthand what it means to live by grace instead of performance. His words bring new life and sweet refreshment to Christians who are tired of never measuring up.

“From Despair to Hope” by

Sharon Reidenbach

How fun the world looks with its deceptive words and ways when we’re hurting and close

to despair. The duration of these struggles, even for Christians, can challenge one’s

faith with doubts.

We’ve prayed and tried to read God’s Holy Word, but it feels like a brick wall is

shielding our efforts or God’s response. And the whispers of Satan ask, “Do you really

believe this? You’ve no answers. He’s left you. You’re at the same spot as before with no

improvement.” And we’re deceived into questioning, and to look for an easier way

glittering with quick fixes.

Christ knew, however, who’d reach those bottomless pits and listen to those destructive,

deceptive words to turn away. John 6:53-68 is a beautiful example of how this dilemma

raised its ugly head during Jesus’ walk on earth with an answer. There were disciples

following Christ who found his teachings and ways hard to grasp. Yet they made no

effort to rectify the problem, but turned to like minds and, eventually, returned to

their former ways of living. “From that time many of His disciples went back and

walked with Him no more.” (John 5:66, NKJV)

But praise God the story doesn’t end there. Jesus turned to His twelve and asked, “Do you

also want to go away?” (John 6:67) And the big, burly, redeemed forever, off-the-wall-

sinner, Simon Peter, gave the answer for all of us when facing the unanswered doors of

prayer and tempted to cave in . . . “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of

eternal life. Also we have come to believe and know that You are Christ, the Son of the

living God!” (John 6:68-69)

Three things Christ leaves for us when we are feeling like we’re hanging on by a

thread from challenges:

First, God’s love of truth will never deceive us. “But God proves His own love for us in

that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)

Second, during those dark times He never says: “Buck up.” No, we hear, “Be still [wait-do

nothing] and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10)

Third, while waiting, a counter attack to Satan’s whispers is to disarm him. “Receive

with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.” (James 1:21)

As Peter said, “Lord, to whom shall we go?”

Earthly quick fixes die with our last breath while God’s eternal, everlasting healings

are forever . . . our hope, our joy, to remember each day.

HISTORIC SPOKANE TOUR sponsored by Northview's Quilters

Open to ANYONE interested in Spokane history Thursday, June 27, 2019 Bus loading at Northview at 8:15am

Travel along Rutter Parkway to a segment of vertical rock located along the Little Spokane River that has a stunning remnant of Native American painting. The artwork is found adjacent to a parking lot that is part of the Little Spokane River Natural Area. The site can be viewed in a matter of minutes. Seeing it offers a greater appreciation of the span

of history and time along the rivers. It is one of the best historic treasures in the Spokane area. Then visit Spokane House, a fur-trading post founded in 1810 by the British-Canadian North West Company, located

on a peninsula where the Spokane River and Little Spokane River meet. When established, it was the North West Company's farthest outpost in the Columbia River region. Spokane House entered written history on June 14, 1811, when David Thompson arrived with a fresh supply of trade goods. Explore the well-documented Visitor Center and

learn about the early history of this area. Stop at Kendall Yards for lunch on your own at one of the many restaurants. Visit My Fresh Basket, one of the outstanding markets in our area. Travel through Browne's Addition and downtown Spokane to learn about the

history and founding fathers and mothers of Spokane. Tour St. John’s Cathedral. Take a ride on the Looff Carrousel in it's new home.

Cost $39.00 per person, plus whatever you decide for lunch.

Sign up deadline is Wednesday, June 19.

If the minimum number of 25 is not met, the tour will be canceled and your money refunded.
