3/30/2021

This Week's Scripture:
John 20:19- 21:25

Join us as we Journey to the Cross, a nine-week study designed to prepare our hearts for Easter.

This study comes to us from The Daily Grace Company. Originally designed to be an eight-day study, we’re going to stretch it out over nine weeks and meditate on Scripture as we enter the season of Easter. I hope you’ll join us!

Last week we looked at He is Risen.

This week, we finish up the series by looking at what Jesus meant when He simply said, "Follow Me."

Let's find out how we can follow Him for a lifetime!

3 Practical Points about Prayer

3/19/2021

3 Comments

I grew up in the home of a pastor and have spent all my life in the church. I remember from an early age hearing my Sunday school teachers tell us that we needed to read our Bibles and pray every day! The song we sang told us that then we would “grow, grow, grow.”

These necessities—Bible reading and prayer—were taught and modeled in my home and in my church. But, the older I have gotten, the more I realize how vital they are, not to make me a better Christian, but, much more importantly, to enrich and deepen my personal relationship with Jesus Christ. There are myriads of passages in Scripture that explain the need for these disciplines in our lives.

It seems that this year through my personal Bible study and preaching I have heard that God is teaching me some practical things I need to learn and apply when it comes to my prayer life.

How To Boldly Live Out Proverbs 31

3/12/2021

"Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised." Proverbs 31:30

When we read about the Proverbs 31 woman, we find that she is a virtuous, faithful woman who respects her husband.

She is strong and enduring, well-rounded, charitable, and provides well for her family.

We also find that she is well-dressed, the wife of a good husband, honorable, wise, kind, and a good mother.

She is praiseworthy, attains and excels at her goals, but most of all, we discover that she loves God!
