The other day Nellie and I were in an auto dealership's repair shop trying to get to the bottom of our Suburban's problem. The service writer was a nice young man who quickly caught on to my being a pastor and starting talking about his faith. He had come to the Lord and his life was different now. How different I would discover soon. He said he and his cousin were rabid Dallas Cowboy fans and had partnered in buying tickets together. His last tickets he said he was selling to his cousin because his pastor was preaching the last sermon in a series he was really enjoying. I thought wow, what a feeling to know that some Christians thrive on hearing the word of God and enjoying sermons on God's word.
Well, here's your chance to get in on a new series based on Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. Entitled, "Doing the Unexpected," the five sermons will center on Jesus' main points from that sermon. The first sermon begins Jan. 9th and it's called, "Learn the Be-Happy Attitudes." Please be in prayer for Pastor Rob and myself as we prepare these sermons. And don't be shy about inviting folks with you to our church. Let this New Year be a year of growth, first in our spiritual lives, secondly in the worship attendance of this church and a positive growth in our community.
Have a great rest of Christmas Day and we'll see you tomorrow in worship at 8:30 and 11:00 traditional worship services.
Blessings!
