ready for church


There has never been a season like this.  We have been through the last 2 months some things that no one, no people have ever experienced.  I remind each of us that we need God.

He has a plan.  He is working.  It is our turn to stick with Him.  Be reminded of some truths.

Isaiah 55:6  NASB
Seek the Lord while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near.

We start by seeking the Lord.  He is near and is ready to help each of us find life and so much more.

Isaiah 43:19  NASB
“Behold, I will do something new, Now it will spring forth; Will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, Rivers in the desert.

Remember this promise?  If you where there when our church was birthed, almost 14 years ago, you heard this verse.

God continues to work and guide and meet needs.  That is why we are committed to demonstrate the love of God to our community through acts of random kindness with the desired outcome that we get to share the hope that comes from Jesus alone.

Those rivers are awesome.  They can flood anytime.  Those roadways are full of adventure and abundant life.  God is planning each for His people.

That is why this weekend we take a step back in to the church.  The Covid-19 pandemic has been a time of uncertainty and stress, struggle and unknown, long days and wishing it would end.  God isn’t like that.  

He is certain and full of peace.  He is our strength and by faith leads each of us and His church.  The days are not as long as eternity will be.

Join us.  Your church might not be having in-person services but it will in the weeks ahead.  We need God.  He is essential, and His love is eternal.  He is doing something new, and that is why we will seek Him.

Psalm 68:9  NLT
You sent abundant rain, O God, to refresh the weary land.

I hope to see you this Sunday in person or online.  If you aren’t in our area, pray for our church and yours as we seek God and what He is doing!

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
