Are You Reading Your Bible?



Are you reading through the book of 1 Samuel?  You are if you're following our Bible Reading Challenge.  The Bible is the inspired word of God that helps us to know God and follow Him.  Many of us own a Bible, but don't have a regular plan for reading it.  
 
To help bring focus, we've put together a Bible reading plan that brings you through a chapter of the Bible each day.  If you follow this day-to-day checklist, you'll be taking the next step toward knowing more of God's Word. 

Check out our website to download our Bible Reading Challenge checklist.

Love Never Fails Series

Easter Sunday (4.16.17 Message)




This past Sunday was Easter and we celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Topic Points:

1) The fact that we face problems does not mean that God doesn't love us.
2) Sometimes God waits to do His biggest miracles when hope seems gone.
3) God doesn't promise that problems won't come our way, but He does promise they won't be the final word in our lives.

4) God cares when those He loves are hurting.
5) God can use impossible problems to help us see the greatness of His glory.
6) Experiencing God's power starts by placing our faith in Jesus Christ.

Spring Outreach


 
Will you help us reach our community this Spring? 
Here are four ways to play a part:

1) Invite someone to church on Easter Sunday - We have invite cards that you can use to spread the word. 

2) Reach out online - You'll find Easter info posted on all our social media platforms. Share and/or "like" the posts to help get the word out. 

3) Help reach 10,000 homes – With your help we’re sending a mailer to 10,000 homes in our community. This mailer will invite people to a new series that starts the week after Easter. The cost will be about $2000. If you would like to help, when you make your gift, indicate that it’s for outreach.

4) Pray that Christ will shine brightly through our church this Spring.

"When You Need a Miracle" Series (4.2.17 Message)


On Sunday, we continued our "When You Need a Miracle" series, while going through the book of Mark.

Topic Points:

1) Some people may not get to Christ until someone cares enough to bring them.
2) Some people may not get to Christ until someone cares enough to find a way.
3) Until we get to Christ, we may not know that the need which gets us to Christ, is not our greatest need.
 
4) Some people won't know that Christ can change lives until they see it for themselves.
5) A changed life is an opportunity for people to see that Jesus Christ is Lord
