At U.S. presidential inaugurations television announcers often comment about the historical or family significance of the specific book used by the president.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, January 9, 2024 the Saint Paul, Minnesota made history, becoming the largest U.S. city to swear-in an all-female city council. At the ceremony one photojournalist noted that the seven women sworn into office used six different books, only two of which were the Christian Bible.<\/p>\n<p>While the Christian Bible is not required, due to the separation of church and state, it has been a common choice of elected officials in the United States, signifying what grounds them as they step into an important role. The book choices these leaders made when they were sworn-in make a statement about what grounds them as individuals. It tells a bit of their own stories and indicates to their constituents what will guide their decision making as they step into the busy life of public office.<\/p>\n<h4><b>Discussion Questions<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>What is one guiding principle that you follow in your life?

After getting a few followers to \u201csign on\u201d as disciples, Jesus heals a man with an unclean spirit and then they go to get food and rest.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>No sooner does Jesus enter the home of Simon and Andrew than they find Simon\u2019s mother-in-law<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>ill with a high fever. After Jesus heals her fever, she shows them hospitality, and that evening the house is filled with <i>all <\/i>of the cities\u2019 sick and demon-possessed people.<\/p>\n<p>The next morning, while it is still <i>very <\/i>dark, Jesus gets up and goes to the wilderness to pray. For Jesus, prayer is conversation with God, the way to stay focused on what God wants him to do.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>By getting up early Jesus can be fairly certain that he will find the quiet and solitude he needs to connect with God. There will be no demands to make conversation with the disciples. Simon\u2019s mother-in-law won\u2019t have breakfast on the table and tell Jesus to eat before leaving the house. In this early hour, before the world is awake, Jesus finds what he needs to stay grounded and focused on the task at hand. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>When the disciples find Jesus we might expect that their announcement, \u201ceveryone is searching for you,\u201d would cause Jesus to turn back to town to appease the requests of the crowd. But Jesus is focused.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Filled with this conversation with God about where Jesus is needed, he tells the disciples,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cLet\u2019s go to the neighboring town.\u201d <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Finding that alone time and praying with God keeps Jesus focused.<\/p>\n<h4><b>Discussion Questions<\/b><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>If you could ask Jesus about the time he spent alone with God, what would you want to know?<\/li>\n<li>When and how do you find time to connect with God?<\/li>\n<li>What makes taking time to connect with God challenging? When is it easier?<\/li>\n<li>Have you ever asked a friend or family member when they find time to connect with God? If not, what would it take for you to ask them so that you could learn from their practices?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b>Activity Suggestions<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>Keep a prayer journal. On a piece of paper or in a notebook, write down the date and the things that you pray about when you connect with God \u2013 it can be a word, a \u00a0phrase, or a full sentence which helps you remember. As you make this list over several days or weeks, look back to see if there are regular themes in your prayers. \u00a0Are there places where you feels your prayers have been answered? Show gratitude for the answered prayer. Consider how the themes of what you pray for might be influencing how you live your life. Does paying attention to your prayers make you want to make changes in your life?<\/p>\n<h4><b>Closing Prayer<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>God of the busy, God of the silence, thank you for your presence. Be with all who hunger for companionship. Stay near those who desire solitude. Speak your words of guidance and wisdom for each day of our lives. Help us listen to those in need and guide us in wisdom around in each word we speak. Guided by your Spirit, let it be so.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eric Luke, Saint Paul, MN Warm-up Question When you get overwhelmed, where do you turn (or what do you turn to) to regain your focus?
