"Life's Journey"
by Pastor Mike on February 27, 2023Dear Church,
Thanks go out to each one who made our first “Soup and Sandwich Sunday” a great event. I heard great comments from many.
On March 26, we are calling that Sunday, “Friend Day.” Think about who you can invite to come with you on that Sunday. Our goal in Community Groups (Sunday School) will be 100. We haven’t hit that number since before covid. We have been in the 90’s so that shouldn’t be hard to do. In fact, that goal may be too low. However, it is a monumental number. I believe we could have 150 if we wanted to. Grab some church cards and invite, invite, invite.
Well, we are finishing our study in two great Old Testament books, Genesis and Isaiah. On Sunday mornings, I am going to do a series of messages I’m calling “Life’s Journey.” It will be a study of what our life’s journey should look like if and when we believe in Jesus as our Savior and Lord. The devil wants to stop us in our tracks, but the Lord Jesus wants us to progress forward to the finish line. Come and see how it all plays out. After that, we are going to study the book of Philippians.
On Sunday evenings we are going to study the book of Exodus. It is the book of departure. We are to depart our old life and march forward to the promised land. God wants to have a close relationship with people. The Lord is the focus, redemption is His plan. Sins are identified, and worship is established.
Remember our prayer time together on March 7 @ 6:00 pm.
Serving the Savior,
Pastor Mike
