Welcome to DisciplesNet weekly worship #147. We're glad you have found your way here. DisciplesNet Church is especially created for people who connect with church best this way. Here you will find opportunities to sing, pray, study scripture, and hear an inspiring message. This week we are blessed to have Rev. Bob Shaw challenge us with an inspiring message,"The Prophet's Choice."

As we do every week, we extend the invitation for you to join in as we celebrate the Lord's Supper, also known as breaking of the bread or communion. If you would like to share with us at the table that extends across boundaries of time, place, and structure, then we ask that you prepare a wafer, cracker, or type of bread and a small drink (we use grape juice, but even water will work). As we pray, we are praying that our blessing extends to where you are. If you are unable or prefer not to eat or drink with us at this time, you may want to meditate or use motions or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

We hope that as you join us for worship you will feel a blessing from being part. Please tell friends, family, and others you know about our online church that is here with doors that are always open, walls as wide as the world, and always room at the table.

Questions for this Week:
1. Have you ever felt that "fire in your bones" that Rev. Shaw speaks about? What were the circumstances?
2. Why do you think that Jeremiah, Amos, Jonah, Jesus, Paul, and the others that Rev. Shaw mentioned, avoided what they were being called to do? Can you relate?
3. Why do you think God calls people such as Jeremiah, Amos, Moses, Paul, Rev. Shaw, and persons such as yourself to speak God's word to the world?
4. Is there any message that God is speaking to you this day to share with people in word, example, or deed? If so, how do you want your life to be different this week?
5. Amen (so be it)
