Getting to know God
John 3.1-17Jesus and Nicodemus discuss what it means to be born again by the Spirit. This happens shortly after Jesus clears the Temple, creating an interesting link with what it means to live a holy life pleasing to God. In this passage, Jesus instructs Nicodemus on how to become part of the kingdom of God. It is not a set of steps; rather, Nicodemus is told he must be born again.
God is discovered hidden in plain sight in our individual and communal lives: awesomely ‘other’; intimately close; sometimes both. Our encounters with God draw us into deeper, more wholesome and interconnected relationships. We find that God is untameable yet present to every leaf and flower. God is wonderfully comforting, yet uncomfortably challenging! His visible presence is everywhere, yet elusive, as if God had just gone around the corner.
This week we explore experiencing God in mystery and closeness.
