Genesis
by Pastor Mike Winfree on June 5, 2018Dear Church,
The trip to the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter was absolutely amazing. I would recommend it to one and all. The highlight for me was hearing Ken Ham. He is the president of “Answers in Genesis” and the Creation Museum. Ken wrote a book in 1987 and has rewritten it in 2012 called “The Lie” He and Henry Morris are the two main forces combating Evolution.
We must know the lie that is being taught and we must understand the truth from God’s perspective. After the completion of our study through Matthew, I will begin to teach through Genesis. It will be a fantastic study. I will begin it this fall. This will be a great time to invite friends and family to our services.
Well, men, it is June and June 17 is Father’s Day. The Women Blessing Women’s ministry are paying us back for the breakfast we prepared for them by preparing breakfast for us. It will be at 8:00am on Father’s Day. They are asking us to sign up on the bulletin board. All men, 18 years and older, are welcome. I will have a special message that morning called, “God Give Us Faithful Men”. We will not have evening services that day due to the extra activity.
Recently I have had different Sunday School teachers tell me about the increased participation in their classes. Now that thrills a preacher’s heart! It is a sign that people are hungering and thirsting to know the truth, and that what is being taught is of interest to them. I am thankful for every Sunday School teacher we have. Be sure to let them know how much you appreciate them for what they do.
Serving the Savior,
Pastor Mike
