When the Text is a Launchpad: A Review of ‘Dream On’

[00:04:40] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]

So glad to see all of you. 18 years of ordained ministry and the last two weeks is the first time ever canceled two weeks in a row of church. I didn't even know how to act. So I missed you guys. I'm so glad to see you. If you're joining us online from wherever you are, we're glad to see you as well. If it's your first time in worship here, we're so glad that you came. We pray that this would
[00:05:14] where you would meet Jesus and that your life might be transformed by that encounter. And we're just so thankful that you're here. So, uh, fill out a connect card there in the pew in front of
[00:05:24] you, drop it on the table in the lobby on your way out or here in the offering buckets at offering time. And we would just love to connect with you. Thank you so much for worshiping with us today.
[00:05:36] A couple of things you need to know. If you are volunteering and serving in the community, don't forget to write those hours down and drop them in the bin in the mission room back here to my left and help us to continue to serve our neighbors in this
[00:05:53] community in any possible way cake auction isn't that Jennifer's line the last time we met it was a month away now it's next Sunday next Sunday is cake auction so we will bring all of our baked lovely goods cakes cookies all

[00:06:31] never been part of it don't miss it it's like second in line to Easter around here it's a big deal and all of the money that we raise goes to support our missions and our youth
[00:06:44] and our youth going to cross connection this summer so please plan to be here next week in the pew you have a white piece of paper at the end of the pew that is our scripture writing for
[00:06:56] february um that's something we're trying this year to kind of keep us engaged in opening the scriptures every day if you haven't done it yet that's okay just pick up today today is actually a rest and pray day so there you go but sometimes writing down that scripture helps it to sink in
[00:07:16] and helps it to to stay with us through the day so that's a really good way to connect with god and i hope you'll give that a try while you are at home thank you for being here let's worship

[00:30:16] I was made for more

[00:30:21] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[00:30:21] So we finish up our series today.
[00:30:35] of dream on living for a god who can we've been dreaming since the very first sunday of the year how many of you that feels like yesterday how many of you it feels like six years ago yes both
[00:30:53] sometimes right yeah but our scripture this morning comes from the 10th chapter of acts starting in the very first verse this story is about a centurion named cornelius and an apostle named peter in cesarea there was a man named cornelius a centurion of the italian
[00:31:20] cohort as it was called he was a devout man who feared god with all his household He gave alms generously to the people and prayed constantly to God.
[00:31:33] One afternoon about three o'clock, he had a vision in which he clearly saw an angel of God coming in and saying to him, Cornelius.
[00:31:43] He stared at him in terror and said, what is it, Lord?
[00:31:50] He answered, your prayers and your alms have ascended as a memorial before God.
[00:31:55] Now send men to Joppa for a certain Simon who is called Peter.
[00:32:02] He is lodging with Simon a tanner whose house is by the seaside.
[00:32:07] When the angel who spoke to him had left, he called two of his slaves and a devout soldier from the ranks of those who served him.
[00:32:15] And after telling them everything, he sent them to Joppa.
[00:32:19] About noon the next day, as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up to the roof to pray.
[00:32:27] He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while it was being prepared, he fell into a trance.
[00:32:35] He saw the heaven open and something like a large sheet coming down, being lowered to the ground by its four corners.
[00:32:43] In it were all kinds of four-footed creatures and reptiles and birds of the air.
[00:32:48] Then he heard a voice saying, Get up, Peter, kill and eat.
[00:32:55] But Peter said, By no means, Lord, for I have never eaten anything that is profane or unclean.
[00:33:03] The voice said to him a second time, What God has made clean, you must not call profane.
[00:33:12] This happened three times, and the thing was suddenly taken up into heaven.
[00:33:20] This is the word of God for the children of God.
[00:33:23] Thanks be to God.
[00:33:25] Let us pray.
[00:33:26] gracious and holy one open your word to us open our minds hearts ears and souls that we might meet you where you have come to meet us we pray in the mighty name of Jesus amen so I wonder are there things that you do today that are almost
[00:33:54] like second nature but you would have never ever dreamed they were possible when you were younger so I'm gonna start with the under 40s in the room under 40s in the room what are things that you can do today that you never imagined
[00:34:15] possible before maybe that technology has allowed you to do or whatever anybody willing to say out loud your job there you go and now you are awesome Wonderful. Anybody else? Awesome. Anybody else? Things you never imagined. All right. 40s to 65-ish
[00:34:51] people. What are things you're doing now that you never imagined? Amen. At 7 p.m. on Tuesdays, right? Yes. Yes. What else? The GPS. We were talking about this before church. Matt said, I can get to a gig without having to have five pages of MapQuest in my front seat.
[00:35:18] order food from your phone and have it delivered to your house yeah not having a landline phone yeah yeah my bank is in the palm of my hand I have no cash I very rarely write a check right Pluto is no longer a planet that's the thing
[00:35:48] since since we came along what about over 65 folks what are things that you never imagined possible what vehicles that drive themselves like the Jetsons right what anything else everybody has a computer yeah what go yeah keeps you connected to the world doesn't it yeah
[00:36:34] which we could have never done before yeah yeah yeah some of us remember when you had to make a collect call and hang up real quick so they'd know who it was right so you could call it you
[00:36:54] you guys under 40 have no idea what i'm talking about that's okay the point is things change right that's a fact i mean look at written language just as an example we used to actually hand write
[00:37:07] things now if you want to confuse somebody who's under 20 just hand write them a letter they can't read it now we dictate yeah and there's this big thing about cursive i don't want to get into that
[00:37:21] But now we dictate or we type.
[00:37:25] It used to be rude and uneducated and unprofessional to not write messages in complete sentences.
[00:37:33] Now we want bullet points.
[00:37:34] And we even write whole conversations where vowels are generally optional.
[00:37:41] Take a look.
[00:37:45] Hello?
[00:37:46] There it is.
[00:37:48] Whole conversation.
[00:37:51] Y'all know what it says?
[00:37:54] Donuts.
[00:37:55] Yeah.
[00:37:56] Wait, for real?
[00:37:57] Yep, for real.
[00:37:57] Okay, never mind. See you there. I mean, that whole conversation, very few vowels, right?
[00:38:05] In order for us to adopt new ways of understanding and doing things, current ways get challenged, don't they?
[00:38:12] They get brought to light as either incomplete or insufficient or inefficient somehow.
[00:38:20] And when that happens, what do we as humans generally say?
[00:38:25] here it comes anybody that gets it five bucks not you we've already talked what's that mean what do we say when we get challenged with new stuff I'll get you started we've never we've never done it that way before right we've never
[00:38:49] done it that way before my mom who was very savvy on her phone and online and that for her age she hand wrote checks for all her bills and when she could no longer do it she expected us to do the same why cuz well I just never done it
[00:39:08] that way before just never done it now flip the script from texting and maps and TV to faith and church what if when have you heard this infamous line we've never done it that way before when it comes to faith in church anybody brave
[00:39:37] enough to say out loud are you gonna make the pastor do that I'm it we've never allowed men and women to sit on the same side of the church before did you know that was a thing back in the old days churches had if you go to
[00:39:55] really old churches you'll see there's two doors the men came in one door and the women came in the other. And there the two shall meet. Even when they got to one door, they'd divide the pews. And the men sat on one side and the women sat on the other.
[00:40:13] We've never had men and women in the same Sunday school class. Some of you remember that. We've never had black people and white people worship together. Sadly, that is still way too true. We've never had an organ in the church. Did you know that when the organ
[00:40:37] was first introduced in the church it was considered the devil's instrument and it was associated with pagan practice and roman frivolity we've never had drums or a guitar in the church and we've surely never had a woman as a preacher before and we have never worn jeans
[00:41:15] to church why can't people just dress up like they're supposed to these are all things i have heard to my face in my years but but but we've always had a a pulpit in church it's not church
[00:41:34] without a pulpit we've never allowed coffee in the sanctuary before blasphemy we've never allowed children to serve communion we've never had words on the wall in church before we've never had online worship before why should we start now we've never had to actually go out in our community
[00:42:13] before why don't people just come to church they know they're welcome we've never done it that way before. This one sentence has been the death of many a God-sized dream in many a church.
[00:42:37] And that isn't so much a judgment as it is an honest assessment of our humanity.
[00:42:44] It is so hard for us to see beyond things as they currently are, isn't it? In any part of our lives, not just in church but everywhere we are wired for our comfort bubble we like to live in it and
[00:43:01] we don't want anybody poking on it we like what we know but fellow dreamers and followers of jesus let me tell you something we can rest assured because this scripture and everyone we have encountered through this whole year so far teaches us painfully clearly sometimes that dreams if
[00:43:26] they are God's dreams will change what we've always done. Think back to the Bible characters that we've met over these past few weeks who have encountered God in a dream. The wise men were given
[00:43:41] a new path home after visiting the newborn king. That's been a long time since the first Sunday in January, hasn't it? Jacob was promised a great future, one that was very different from his shady
[00:43:54] be passed. Solomon was given wisdom for his role, his brand new role as king. Ananias was launched out of what he'd always done to take a message of healing and redemption to the enemy, Saul, who became Paul. And now today, Peter has a vision and a command from
[00:44:16] God to kill and eat what had previously been considered unclean food. And Peter says it Peter says it himself in verse 14.
[00:44:27] But Lord, I've never done it that way before.
[00:44:31] By no means, Lord, I've never eaten anything profane or unclean.
[00:44:36] To which God says three times.
[00:44:39] And we know that three is that biblical number for completion, right?
[00:44:43] Perfection.
[00:44:45] God says three times.
[00:44:46] Yes, it's different.
[00:44:48] But I've made a new way.
[00:44:50] So you're good.
[00:44:53] Just follow me now.
[00:44:57] Follow my lead now.
[00:45:02] Now, mind you, Peter's faith is not lacking.
[00:45:06] He's solid.
[00:45:07] You know, Peter was the one who Jesus said, You're the rock on this kind of faith.
[00:45:14] I'm going to build my whole church.
[00:45:18] And God is even taking that kind of faith and stretching it and expanding it.
[00:45:24] God is showing him a broader, different, more inclusive way.
[00:45:28] you see the whole point of visions in the book of Acts is to get people in the right place at the right time so that they can receive God's message again in this story we have a double vision just like Saul and Ananias connecting two
[00:45:46] people from from different worlds and getting them together on God's page Peter and Cornelius have separate visions about the same future God's future one that will change what's always been done for both of them and
[00:46:03] for all the communities and people they represent Cornelius was a centurion that means he was a Roman soldier in charge of a hundred men remember what the Roman soldiers did to Jesus okay so we've come a long way but we have this Roman
[00:46:24] soldier who is not a Jew but he is a follower of the way he's a follower of God who has adopted the idea of the one true God and he is living a faithful life we hear that in the story these people were called God fearers
[00:46:40] Cornelius was a God fearer and he was deeply respected by the Jews and God comes to him and tells him to go to Joppa and listen to Peter and Peter at noon on the very next day he's hungry this is another way the Bible tells us
[00:46:59] that that Peter is faithful because he's hungry probably because he's finishing a time of fasting it's showing his devotion to God so his faith is not lacking it's just being stretched Peter has this vision of a picnic blanket full
[00:47:17] of food that would be considered unclean probably some doughnuts on there like we just all had a little while ago. And in that vision, he discovers this mission to share the good news with the Gentiles. He's able to see and make the connection between those unclean animals
[00:47:42] that God's made clean. He's able to make that connection and say, oh, these Gentiles, These folks who are uncircumcised, they will share in Israel's blessings and have the power of the Holy Spirit just like the Jews.
[00:48:05] Now they have surely never done it that way before.
[00:48:09] Never.
[00:48:10] Gentiles were outsiders.
[00:48:11] They were not privy to a relationship of the one true God.
[00:48:15] They were uncircumcised.
[00:48:17] They ate unclean food.
[00:48:18] How could they be included in God's mission?
[00:48:22] It just is so far out of the realm of understanding at that time.
[00:48:30] But God says to Peter in this dream, they are my children too, because I say they are.
[00:48:45] They've never done it this way before.
[00:48:47] And if you read on past this story, you will see that there's almost like a little Pentecost that happens.
[00:48:54] And the Holy Spirit comes on the Gentiles.
[00:48:56] And Peter says, and they want to be baptized, and he says, how can we not baptize these people?
[00:49:02] They are God's people, just like us.
[00:49:09] God comes and sets things before us that we've never done, never seen, never even thought about before.
[00:49:18] And these visions from long ago show us today that the Lord has a next step for all of us.
[00:49:27] The Lord has a next step for each one of us.
[00:49:32] God wants to broaden our understanding, to stretch our faith too, and to give us more than we had ever asked or imagined before.
[00:49:44] We cannot forget that we live for a God who can.
[00:49:49] A God who can make new paths and fulfill big promises and give us wisdom to do God-sized good.
[00:49:57] to give us courage beyond our comfort zones, to stretch us for his good and for his glory in new ways that we've never been stretched before.
[00:50:07] We live for a God who can do all of those things if we as God's people will just be willing to be shaped by that hand.
[00:50:20] We started our conversation a little while ago with, what's second nature today that you never dreamed possible before?
[00:50:26] Well, what if we apply that question to our faith journey?
[00:50:34] What's second nature today that never seemed possible before?
[00:50:39] Maybe we haven't even considered that.
[00:50:42] That's okay. Now's the time to think about it.
[00:50:45] What is it that's on your picnic blanket?
[00:50:50] What is God putting before you that stretches you in your faith so that someday soon something you never dreamed possible before might be second nature to you by the power of the Holy Spirit working in and through you.
[00:51:10] What's on your picnic blanket?
[00:51:12] Never done that before, God.
[00:51:18] Maybe it's actually taking that invitation challenge that God has put before us as a church family, taking it seriously and saying to people, hey, there's great stuff happening in the name of Jesus at Central United Methodist Church.
[00:51:37] and I just want you to be a part of it.
[00:51:40] Maybe it's working for justice for people who are on the margins right here within a block of this corner.
[00:51:49] Maybe it's a call to preach or teach, to lead a small group, to invest in a hospitality team, to get baptized, to volunteer at the prison, to you fill in the blank.
[00:52:03] What's on your sheet?
[00:52:08] Or you say, God, I've never even considered that before.
[00:52:12] God has a next step for each and every one of us.
[00:52:21] And the best news is that we don't take those steps alone.
[00:52:25] We take it in the footsteps of a mighty God who can and does come to us in remarkable ways.
[00:52:33] So when God reveals a new way for us and we instinctively shout, wait, wait, wait, but God, I've never done that before.
[00:52:45] My prayer is that will God give us all a vision to understand that the God who can is always making a new way always to include more to stretch our faith to grow God's kingdom our work as God's people is to follow
[00:53:07] God's lead now now whatever that means for right here right now going forward If we've never done it that way before, it's okay.
[00:53:23] God knows what's next for all of us.
[00:53:29] Our job is to follow now, one step after another, after another, amen, amen.
[00:53:43] One of the best places to start that journey is right here at this table.
[00:53:50] You know, when Jesus shared this meal with his friends, all of them were about to embark on a journey that they'd never been on before because Jesus was not going to be physically present with them. They didn't know what to do. They didn't know how to behave. They didn't know
[00:54:11] what they were facing. And Jesus gives them this meal and says, don't forget, I'm always here.
[00:54:24] Remember me and follow me now. What a beautiful, beautiful reminder and feeling of God's Holy Spirit. From all the way back then till this day, God is doing a new thing that we've never done
[00:54:46] before. And this is fuel for the journey. Let us give thanks before we come. Gracious and Holy One, we thank you for the invitation to this table, that you extend it to all of us, that your grace
[00:55:10] is beyond what we can understand and deeper and wider than we can see. Thank you for making a place for us at your table. Forgive us when we don't show up.
[00:55:29] Forgive us when we try to elbow out people on either side of us. We confess that we don't deserve a place here. We ask for you to clean us up and by your mercy make us worthy we remember gracious one the gift of this meal that
[00:56:03] you gave to your disciples on that night before you gave up your life for us you gathered around the table and you took bread you gave thanks and broke it and shared it with your friends and you said take and eat this is my body which is
[00:56:19] given for you do this in remembrance of me and when supper was over you took the cup you gave thanks and you shared it with your disciples and you said drink from this all of you for this is my blood of the new covenant poured out for
[00:56:36] you and for many for the forgiveness of sin every time you drink it remember me Lord we do remember and we are grateful and we pray that you would pour out your Holy Spirit on all who are gathered here and on these gifts of bread and cup that
[00:56:57] That you would make them be for us the body and blood of Christ.
[00:57:01] That we might be for this world the body of Christ, redeemed by your love until you come again in final victory and we all feast at your heavenly table.
[00:57:15] Until that day, oh Lord, and always we give you all the power and the praise and the glory.
[00:57:24] And we thank you for the call that you place on our lives and this meal that reminds us that you are constantly with us.
[00:57:37] We pray in the name of Jesus.
[00:57:39] Amen.
[00:57:55] Broken, given, so that you might know life.
[00:58:03] Amen.
[00:58:10] Poured out, so that you might know life.
[00:58:17] Amen.
[00:58:19] Those who are serving, would you come?
[00:58:22] And if you've never received communion in a United Methodist Church before, we practice open communion.
[00:58:29] That means everyone is welcome.
[00:58:31] because it's Jesus who makes the invitation.
[00:58:35] So you are welcome at this table.
[00:58:39] We will receive by intinction.
[00:58:41] That's a big old, you don't need, okay.
[00:58:44] Which is a church word for dip the bread in the juice.
[00:58:51] And so you will receive a piece of bread, dip it into the juice, and then take both elements together.
[00:58:58] After you receive, you're invited to stay and pray at the altar as long as you would like.
[00:59:04] and maybe just spend a little time with Jesus asking, what's on my blanket?
[00:59:13] What is it that you're stretching me into, oh God?
[00:59:18] And be grateful for the meal that you're about to receive to give you the grace and the energy to do that thing.
[00:59:26] Everything is ready.
