Series Outline for Less Is More
This four-week series was taught to prepare for Lent in 2015. It takes a look at the paradox that doing and having less can actually lead to a life that is more fulfilling, focused on what is most important.
Less Is More – Lent
Lent is patterned after Jesus’ forty days in the wilderness. It is a time when we fast, pray, confess sin, and set aside distractions so we can fully seek God to be empowered by His Spirit.
Luke 4:1-2, 14
The Refreshment of Rest
Sabbath rest is not a legalistic restriction but rather a gift from God to allow us to be refreshed as we rest from normal activities so we can focus on God and His provision for us.
Leviticus 23:1-3
The Feast of Fasting
Biblical fasting is a call to not only abstain from food but to feast upon the Word and will of God.
Matthew 4:1-4
The Freedom of Simplicity
Freedom is not found in a life full of distractions, but in one that has reduced activities to allow time to receive Christ and His Word.
Luke 10:38-42
