Men Prepare Sermons; God Prepares Men

2nd Timothy 2:15

"The proper place for a ship to be is in the water, but if the water gets into the ship, the ship will sink. The proper place for the church is in the world,

BUT IF THE 'WORLD' GETS INTO THE CHURCH,

THE CHURCH WILL GO DOWN IN DISGRACE!"

Thank you for taking the time to view our blog;we look forward to reading your comments. DVDs of our services are available upon request. We covet your prayers and friendship. In His Service and For His Glory, Pastor Bill & Kathy ...
"Now fear the Lord and serve Him with all faithfulness...But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve...But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."-Joshua 24:14-15

Is God Calling You to be a Pastor?

The right kind of education is essential to the man who has answered God's call. No army dare send a soldier into battle without proper training. The results would be devastating, not only for the warrior, but for the war.

“Go Tell It to Everyone” 

Think of how  excited it is to tell someone a story of an adventure or an ordeal you’ve had, or lived through? Or how we are moved by an event or a story that we just heard from with someone else.

Think of some of the stories that you’ve heard all of your life. You know, the ones that told and retold, from  one generation to the next, the ones that seem to  resonate in such deep, meaningful ways. They can inspire us. 

In His birth to his death adventurer,  Jesus’ life is one that compels us to tell and retell our experiences with Him. The Gospel story is referred to as the “good news” and that is true,  but we, as  followers of Christ, know that it is the very best news.  It is a story that continues to resonate with us today.

The story of Jesus is the beginning of the greatest story ever told. Wise men come to hear it, Shepherds (every-day persons), are moved by it, as they run to tell everyone who will listen. The Gospel of Luke reads, “When they had seen Him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this Child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them” (Luke 2:17-18).

We can tell the impact of the story, by how the story is shared. You see, the story is still true, so we continue to share this story, as it moves us day after day. Let’s never forget that this season is about, realizing once more, telling this incredible old old story of the birth of Jesus in a fresh way –  moving us to share it with others,with the wonder and energy of those who were on the scene in those early days. 

This Christmas season, may we, find ourselves moved by the ultimate gift of Love and share the joy with others.
