Grace and peace to you all. We had a great day yesterday and we were so blessed with another member joining our church. Welcome Debra Robertson into our family of faith. Jason Snider once again did a great job encouraging our men at the men's breakfast. We also had our Fall Festival (big thanks to all who helped).
A few reminders …
- November 22nd — men's “shoot” — See Dalton Garrett for details.
- November 23rd is our Day of Giving as well as our Church-Wide Thanksgiving meal after service. Please pray about what you can give, extra and generously! And make plans to stay and eat with us.
- November 30th is our International Night of Prayer. Stay Tuned for details.
Here's some links …
The Conversation about Screens … really good.
Why I Changed My Mind about Dressing Up for Church … what do you think?
A Meal Says More Than You Think … a lot more.
The Importance of a Plurality of Elders … another article on this issue. Hope to have one of these go out every week or so. Also, from linguistic scholar and apologist, Wes Huff, the offices of elder, pastor, and overseer are the same.
Is Tithing Biblical … Here's the podcast I shared with you on Sunday. Click on the link and then scroll down to find the episode, about four down.
“Health is a great blessing, but sanctified disease is a greater. Prosperity and worldly comfort, are what all naturally desire; but losses and crosses are far better for us, if they lead us to Christ. Thousands at the last day, will testify with David, “It is good for me that I have been afflicted.” (Psalm. 119:71.)” [J. C. Ryle]
In Christ,
Pastor Brandon
