I’m thinking of a sermon series that would be called Upside Down…or Flipped…or Backwards…

It would focus on the upside down thinking of Jesus.  Principles he taught and lived by that might be considered backwards.

Example:
Love your enemies.
Lose your life to gain it.
Rejoice in your trials.
etc…

Apparently David A. has been doing some sermon thinking as well.  He has a series planned for January along the same lines.  Read about it here.  This will be a good opportunity to see this idea in action and possibly adapt it for the students.
