  Hello, and Welcome to this fall's series of Wild and Precious Conversions, a renaming and restructuring of Spiritual Voyagers.  

You are receiving this email either because you were on our past Spiritual Voyager email list or you asked to join in with us for one or more of our five zoom conversations over the next several weeks (7:00-8:30 p.m. on the second and fourth Tuesdays--September 24, October 8 and 22, November 12 and 26).  Keith Ford will send out a zoom link a day or two before each session.

"Wild and Precious Conversations" is based on a phrase from a Mary Oliver poem:  

                    Tell me, what is it you plan to do
                    with your one wild and precious life?

It's also part of the title of Mike Graves' book, Jesus' Vision for Your One Wild and Precious Life.  Our zoom conversations will have 3 blended perspectives:  themes from Mike Graves' book; preparation and reactions to Pastor Travis Norvell's sermons on these themes; and the Biblical connections which drive the concepts.

Though the sessions will be related, each zoom conversation will be free-standing:  you  can feel comfortable joining in for any one or more of them.  Also, reading the book or hearing Pastor Norvell's sermons are NOT necessary for you to participate.  

Prior to each session, we will email you a few comments and springboard questions for our upcoming zoom meeting.  For our conversation this coming Tuesday...

1.  A quote at the beginning of the Introduction to Graves' book reads, 
"There is more that is important about Jesus than his death."...the idea that Jesus did not come to die but to live might be a surprise.  In your own spiritual journey, how did the death of Jesus get treated in comparison to the life he lived? 

2.  "Follow me,"  Jesus said (and that's the heading on chapter 1 of Graves' book).
...the essence of Jesus' teaching on following him could be summarized as follows:  "Come just as you are, but don't expect to stay that way."  What does that mean?

3.  In Luke 4:18-19, Jesus reads from Isaiah--The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor.  He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor"; and then Jesus boldly declares, "Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing."   How is this "good news to the poor" and a challenge to the wealthy?

Finally, as always, we will let your comments steer the discussion.  We look forward to seeing and hearing you on zoom at 7:00 p.m. this coming Tuesday.
