PCC BENEDICTION
May you jump into the arms of Jesus and may He push out into the world. May you be healed as you participate in the healing of others. Not because you must, but because you may. This is why we were born!

BEYOND SUNDAY
During this Advent Season, PCC is wanting to help a weary world rejoice by giving you, your family, and/or friends a daily focus to help you experience the hope, peace, joy, and love of God. Our series, A Weary World Rejoices, will focus on the 5 songs found in the Gospel of Luke. Those who sang these songs prove that in troublesome times there are still such good things to sing about God. This week, we conclude our series by learning from Simeon’s Song.
Monday, Dec. 28 - Whose song has impacted you the most during this Advent Series? Elizabeth-Luke 1:42-45, Mary-Luke 1:46-55, Zechariah-Luke 1:67-79, or Angels-Luke 2:8-14.
Tuesday, Dec. 29 - Reflect on Simeon’s story and song Luke 2:25-32. What is astonishing to you about Simeon’s life and song?
Wednesday, Dec. 30 - Ponder the blessing Simeon gave to Mary in Luke 2:34-35. How do you reconcile that the birth and presence of Jesus in our lives creates division and animosity, while revealing truth and bringing peace?
Thursday, Dec. 31 - Simeon sang because now people were suddenly given a transforming revelation. Their perspective will be completely different. What, who, and how is God wanting you to see differently, more from Jesus' perspective?
Friday, Jan. 1 - Write or declare your own song through a prayer to God about who He is, what He has done for you in 2020, and how you need His help in 2021. Then share it with someone; it will encourage them and you.
