This Is Amazing Grace

Jeremy Riddle Josh Farro Phil Wickham

Who breaks the power of sin and darkness

Whose love is mighty and so much stronger

The King of Glory, the King above all kings

Who shakes the whole earth with holy thunder

And leaves us breathless in awe and wonder

The King of Glory, the King above all kings

This is amazing grace

This is unfailing love

That You would take my place

That You would bear my cross

You lay down Your life

That I would be set free

Oh, Jesus, I sing for

All that You've done for me

Who brings our chaos back into order

Who makes the orphan a son and daughter

The King of Glory, the King of Glory

Who rules the nations with truth and justice

Shines like the sun in all of its brilliance

The King of Glory, the King above all kings

This is amazing grace

This is unfailing love

That You would take my place

That You would bear my cross

You lay down Your life

That I would be set free

Oh, Jesus, I sing for

All that You've done for me

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Worthy, worthy, worthy

This is amazing grace

This is unfailing love

That You would take my place

That You would bear my cross

You lay down Your life

That I would be set free

Oh, Jesus, I sing for

All that You've done for me

All that You've done for me

Oh how he loves us so

Oh how he loves us

How he loves us so

Yea He loves us

Oh how

We are his portion

And he is our prize

Drawn to redemption by the grace in his eyes

If grace is an ocean we're all sinking

So heaven meats earth like a sloppy wet kiss

And my heart burns violently inside of my chest

I don't have time to maintain these regrets

When I think about the way

He loves us

Oh how he loves us so

Oh how he loves us

How he loves us so

Yea He loves us

Oh how

DOWNTOWN PHOENIX CHURCH

PHOENIX, ARIZONA

June 8, 9 and 10, 2017

URBAN UNIVERSITY  Historic Roosevelt Community, Phoenix, AZ

Your Ambassador will lead your group on a short tour.

Identify these six “S’s”.  Participants will construct potential ways they could connect with and minister to the community that are specifically authentic to the target community.   Begin your time in prayer.  Today, our goal is for you to learn the ‘art’ of seeing people and a city through the eyes of our Creator.  We teach that all Peoples are made in the image of God and we long to see individuals.  It’s important that you pray as you move throughout the day!

STRUCTURES & BUILDINGS - Take a pic of your entire group in front of what YOU consider a building-block structure of this community. Unique #UrbanUniversityGenSend

• What are the structures and buildings that you see?  Fences?   Bars on windows?
• What are the purposes being addressed by the buildings you see?  
• What chain businesses do you see? (i.e. Starbucks, McDonalds)
• Are the structures older or new, well kept or run down, rented or owned, businesses, third spaces or services?

2.  SIGNS & ART: - Take a pic of your group that includes Roosevelt Art.  #UrbanUniversityGenSend  (Examples include bumper stickers, tagging, etc, public spaces, Art on the streets and buildings).

• Is there a common theme that you see in these signs?
• How much money did it cost to ‘make’ these signs?

3.  SPATIAL DYNAMICS: (Example of Spatial dynamics:  Think about how an airport gate lounge is set up with fixed lines of seating all facing the same direction, the lack of tables or group spaces and dominance of screens) - Take a pic within a spatial statement.  #UrbanUniversityGenSend

• Are the sidewalks on both sides of the street? Are they wide or narrow?  

          Are they shaded or open?                

• Do you see spaces to play, relax and rest?  
• What, if any, public transportations do you see?
• Are the streets narrow or wide?                 Is there free parking?
• Are there alleys?  If so, are they activated?
• Do you see lanes for bicyclists? 

Your Ambassador Guide will lead you in prayer and release you now to disperse for lunch and finish out the rest of this experience.  We’ll see you all back at Civic Space Park at 11:30am for Popup Church!  If you need help, ask your Ambassador or 

call Jim at 602-799-9160.

________________________________

At this time break up into smaller groups of 3 or 4 people.  Grab some lunch and proceed with this exercise!

4.  SOCIAL INTERACTION:  (Group into 3 or 4 people each.  Take 40 minutes and sit some place in the community and grab some lunch). -Park, Restaurant, Third Space).  Take a group selfie in that place.  #UrbanUniversityGenSend

• Do you see pedestrians?  Is it a walking culture or mostly automobile culture?
• Are there people walking their dogs?
• Do you see people greeting each other or ignoring each other?
• Does it seem that downtown is a destination or merely a space in-between?
• Where do people seem to hang out?  Socioeconomic groups?  Ethnic groups?
• Are there indoor AND outdoor spaces?
• What ages and kinds of people do you see?  Children?  Are they safe?
• Go to the DTPHXCHURCH.COM web page and watch the “Urban University” intro video to discover our take on being in our community.  Does it make any sense to you?

5.  SPIRITUALITY:  (For the sake of this process, let’s use “spirituality” to refer to the ways in which humanity interacts with the unseen world, the inter life, God, spirit and the concept of life after death.  Divide up individually or in pairs).

• What formal places of worship do you see?    Where were they built?    Pray
• What activities do you see, if any, around these places?   Pray for these people.
• Do you see gatherings in the parks, coffee shops, home for rented spaces?  Pray for DTPHX CHURCH as we minister in this community.
• What kind of spiritual postings do you see on bulletin boards, light poles?  Pray for our like-minded spiritual siblings in our community.
• What spaces do you notice where people might go for rest, solace, mediation?  Would they work for DTPHX CHURCH as a ‘popup church’ location?  Pray as you are led.

6.  STORY:  The story of the community is quite important to understand.  - Engage yourself in a conversation with someone.  Ask them to please explain this community and how it’s changed. (For example:   “Hi. I'm new here. Tell me about the community. How long have you been here? What are you most proud of about the community? What would you like to change if you could?”)  Google “Roosevelt Row Community Phoenix” or “RoRo Community” to learn more.  - Ask for permission to take a selfie with you and the person you speak to.  #UrbanUniversityGenSend

*When you finish, make your way to PopUp Church at “Her Secret is Patience” . (Google it if you like).  Our outdoor worship begins at 11:30 am

Much of this exercise is from Michael Miata, professor transformational urban leadership at Azusa Pacific University in Los Angeles, InnerCHANGE.  And from To Alter Your World by Michael Frost and Christiana Rice.

______________________________

Take some time to pray, asking God to show you what He sees when He looks at the City ….

Journal some of your impressions as the Holy Spirit gives you insights …

What stories will you take home as God continues to mold you as an ambassador?

Jeremiah's Letter to the Exiles ESV

29 These are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the surviving elders of the exiles, and to the priests, the prophets, and all the people, whom Nebuchadnezzar had taken into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. 2 This was after King Jeconiah and the queen mother, the eunuchs, the officials of Judah and Jerusalem, the craftsmen, and the metal workers had departed from Jerusalem. 3 The letter was sent by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. It said: 4 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. 6 Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. 7 But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.

Cornerstone

Verse 1
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly trust in Jesus' Name
(REPEAT)

Chorus
Christ alone cornerstone
Weak made strong in the Saviour's love
Through the storm He is Lord
Lord of all

Verse 2
When darkness seems to hide His face
I rest on His unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil
My anchor holds within the veil

Interlude
He is Lord Lord of all

Verse 3
When He shall come with trumpet sound
Oh may I then in Him be found
Dressed in His righteousness alone
Faultless stand before the throne

Come Thou Fount Of Every Blessing (Nettleton)

Verse 1
Come Thou fount of ev'ry blessing
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount I'm fixed upon it
Mount of Thy redeeming love

Verse 2
Here I raise mine Ebenezer
Hither by Thy help I'm come
And I hope by Thy good pleasure
Safely to arrive at home
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wand'ring from the fold of God
He to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood

Verse 3
O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be
Let Thy grace Lord like a fetter
Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee
Prone to wander Lord I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart Lord take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above

Scandal Of Grace

Verse 1
Grace what have You done
Murdered for me on that cross
Accused in absence of wrong
My sin washed away in Your blood

Pre-Chorus
Too much to make sense of it all
I know that Your love breaks my fall
The scandal of grace
You died in my place
So my soul will live

Chorus
Oh to be like You
Give all I have just to know You
Jesus there's no-one beside You
Forever the hope in my heart

Verse 2
Death where is your sting
Your power is as dead as my sin
The cross has taught me to live
And mercy my heart now to sing

Pre-Chorus
The day and its troubles shall come
I know that Your strength is enough
The scandal of grace
You died in my place
So my soul will live

Bridge
And it's all because of You Jesus
It's all because of You Jesus
It's all because of Your love
That my soul will live

Mighty To Save

Verse 1
Ev’ryone needs compassion
Love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Ev’ryone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Saviour
The hope of nations

Chorus
Saviour He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever Author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

Verse 2
So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Ev’rything I believe in
Now I surrender

Bridge
Shine your light and let the whole world see
We're singing
For the glory of the risen King
Jesus
Shine your light and let the whole world see
We're singing
For the glory of the risen King
