How to Use Notes

This is a guide in using fill in the blank notes, free notes, and what you can do with them.

First off, sometimes we will have fill in the blank options for you. These will look like this:

If you type something up there that is incorrect, the blue line will turn red, and give you the option to reveal the answer. You can do that or type the correct response and the line will turn green.

Secondly, you can type in whatever notes you want using the icon that looks like the one below this statement on the right.

Whatever you type on that, will stay in your own personal note!

Lastly, you can send yourself your note to your email to save. We recommend you doing this if you are using a browser window because it won’t be saved. However, if you find the notes through the “Message Notes” section on our app homepage, your notes will be saved there.

Trade Up: Only Everything - 5/5/24

What do we have to trade off to trade up to the life Jesus calls us to live?

“Someone came to Jesus with this question: “Teacher, what good deed must I do to have eternal life?””
—Matthew 19:16, NLT

““Why ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. But to answer your question—if you want to receive eternal life, keep the commandments.” “Which ones?” the man asked. And Jesus replied: “ ‘You must not murder. You must not commit adultery. You must not steal. You must not testify falsely. Honor your father and mother. Love your neighbor as yourself.’””
—Matthew 19:17–19, NLT

““I’ve obeyed all these commandments,” the young man replied. “What else must I do?””
—Matthew 19:20, NLT

“Jesus told him, “If you want to be perfect, go and sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.””
—Matthew 19:21, NLT

“But when the young man heard this, he went away sad, for he had many possessions. Then Jesus said to his disciples, “I tell you the truth, it is very hard for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. I’ll say it again—it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!””
—Matthew 19:22–24, NLT

“The disciples were astounded. “Then who in the world can be saved?” they asked. Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.””
—Matthew 19:25–26, NLT

“Then Peter said to him, “We’ve given up everything to follow you. What will we get?””
—Matthew 19:27, NLT

“Jesus replied, “I assure you that when the world is made new and the Son of Man sits upon his glorious throne, you who have been my followers will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has given up houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or property, for my sake, will receive a hundred times as much in return and will inherit eternal life. But many who are the greatest now will be least important then, and those who seem least important now will be the greatest then.”
—Matthew 19:28–30, NLT)

““The Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure that a man discovered hidden in a field. In his excitement, he hid it again and sold everything he owned to get enough money to buy the field. “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant on the lookout for choice pearls. When he discovered a pearl of great value, he sold everything he owned and bought it!”
—Matthew 13:44–46, NLT

What is keeping you from following Jesus faithfully, wholeheartedly, consistently?
