Video: “One Faith” – John Michael Talbot & Michael Card
He is the good Shepherd and He’s laid down his life for His sheep, so out of many nations He’s gathered one fold and one faith;
And He has built His church on the rock foundation of faith, on apostles and prophets who shepherd the people in His place.
And He gave to Simon Peter and to all the twelve the keys of the Kingdom so darkness shall never prevail
But some of the shepherds have pastured themselves on their sheep, so He has come out against them and scattered His people of faith.
In good pasture He will shepherd His people; On the mountain top He feeds His sheep. He will heal the poor and afflicted; To the prisoner He brings release.
Yet He’ll not forsake His people; He’ll claim His sheep for His own. He’ll send out His Word to the nations, regather His people back home,
For He is the good Shepherd. He’s laid down His life for His sheep, so out of many nations He’s gathered one fold and one faith.
There is one faith, one hope, and one baptism, One God and Father of all. There is one church, one body, one life in the Spirit now given so freely to all.

Song: “Why It Matters” – Sara Groves (with lyrics)
Sit with me and tell me once again of the story that’s been told us, of the power that will hold us, of the beauty, of the beauty, Why it matters.
Speak to me until I understand why our thinking and creating, why our efforts of narrating about the beauty, of the beauty, And why it matters.
Like the statue in the park of this war torn town, and its protest of the darkness and the chaos all around, with its beauty, how it matters, How it matters.
Show me the love that never fails, the compassion and attention midst confusion and dissension, like small ramparts for the soul, How it matters.
Like a single cup of water, How it matters.

Questions:
Song: “People of God” – Gungor
We could have tongues of angels; We could move mountains with our faith; We could give everything away, but if we don’t have love we’re left with nothing.
We could see blind eyes opened, know all the mysteries of our faith. We could sing all the highest praise but if we don’t have love, we’re left with nothing.
People of God, Rise up. Rise up and shine God’s love. We are the light of the world.
Love is what holds it all together. Love never fails, it never dies. There is no deeper truth. We know that God is love, our God is love. Tear down the walls that divide us; Let love rebuild and unite us. All we need is love.

Video: “Peace” – Rich Mullins (Faces of 2010)
Though we’re strangers, still I love you. I love you more than your mask. And you know you have to trust this to be true, and I know that’s much to ask. But lay down your fears, come and join this feast. He has called us here, you and me.
And may peace rain down from Heaven like little pieces of the sky, Little keepers of the promise falling on these souls this drought has dried. In His Blood and in His Body, in the Bread and in this Wine,
Peace to you. Peace of Christ to you.
And though I love you, still we’re strangers, prisoners in these lonely hearts. And though our blindness separates us, still His light shines in the dark.
And His outstretched arms are still strong enough behind these prison bars to set us free.
So may peace rain down from Heaven like little pieces of the sky, Little keepers of the promise falling on these souls this drought has dried. In his Blood and in His Body, in the Bread and in this Wine,
Peace to you. Peace of Christ to you.
Video: “Call It Dreaming” – Iron & Wine
…Where we break when our hearts are strong enough, We can bow ’cause our music’s warmer than blood.
Where we see enough to follow, We can hear when we are hollow.
Where we keep the light we’re given, We can lose and call it living…
Questions:
Where we keep the light we’re given, we can lose and call it living.
