help with our next series

Proverbs 20:18 (NLT) --- Plans succeed through good counsel; don't go to war without wise advice.


Proverbs 4:7 (NLT) --- Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do!And whatever else you do, develop good judgment.


The Community Fellowship is gearing up for our next series.  We have seen God do some amazing things through the series we have been through together.  Remember the series 30 Days to Live that impact lots of lives around the church?  Remember the Chase the Lion series that taught us about taking risks and watching God work?  Each of these have brought some wisdom and insight our way.  Our next series will be much the same.

But we need your help.  The next series is Q --- questions about life and God.  What we are looking for is the basic stuff that goes through your mind on a regular basis.  It may be something you deal with when you are depressed.  It may be one of those questions that just keeps coming up.  My point is to hear and speak to the things that Christians deal with and that might draw none Christians to look at God.  Do you have any of those questions?  Send them to us.  Email them to questions@thecommunityfellowship.org as we are gathering questions now (these emails go to one of our church leaders who is compiling the questions; I will not know where they came from ... if that helps.  The series begins the first week of November.  It will be awesome.

Some of the things that seem to keep coming to my mind have to with some of these topics: doubt and faith, why bad things happen to good people, stuff that makes us grow closer to God, homosexuality, knowing and using spiritual gifts, dealing with divorce.  As a pastor, I hear from many people each week who are dealing with all kinds of situations.  You go through the same kind of things.  Share them with us.

Some of you took the challenge I offered you last week.  There were actually 2 challenges.  The first was to read Proverbs every day.  The second was to memorize Romans 12 with me.  Both of these have brought several new thoughts and questions my way.  I'm digging in and asking God to share some great things with our people as I think about the things people are asking.

Help us with our series.  Send us your questions.  Again that email address is questions@thecommunityfellowship.org.

Jeremiah 33:3 (NASB) --- ' Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.'

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look

Day 8 in Cuba

We have just come off and incredible weekend, and it is day 8 of the mission trip in Cuba.  Thank you to all who have been praying for this trip, the mission team and the impact it will have on those we serve.   Please don’t stop praying. Last week Alex and I served with a mission team in the mountains of southern Cuba.  There were several challenges, but God gave us safety, provision and opportunity to serve some of the sweetest people I have ever met.  No running water… sporadic electricity generated by a small, logo dammed up river, no transportation other than animals, limited food sources and more.  These people love the Lord and sharing their faith with others. Over the weekend we made our way back to Havana.  On Friday our vehicle broke down leaving us on the side of the road for several hours.  We then boarded a bus and rode 14 hours.  We arrived safely and even got some rest. Sunday was so, so good.  We visited two partner churches.  In the morning we were with one church that
