SWT, Proverbs 7, Avoiding the Trap of Adultery, Tonight – Youth Singing, Pastor Preaching

Everyone come join us tonight for our periodic “coming together” when the youth ministry comes and joins us for Bible study in the Sanctuary.  Tonight Brad will take prayer requests, the youth will read Scripture and lead us in worship and I will preach from Proverbs 7, one of the more explicit teachings against adultery and sexual immorality in Proverbs.  It will be good night to be reminded about relational purity.

Come and Experience our Special Guests – Master’s Voice! This Sunday @ 10:30AM

mastervoiceINVITE A FRIEND!!  INVITE A FRIEND!!  INVITE A FRIEND!!

Master’s Voice is an evangelism team of four men, and their families, devoted to sing and preach the overwhelming and life-changing gospel of Jesus Christ until all know! Please pray for MV as they stand on the promise of John 12:32 when Jesus says, “and I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.”

What can a person expect from a MV event? Expect high-energy! Expect to laugh, cry and enjoy the powerful vocals and arrangements from your favorite classic gospel songs, to some new and fresh gospel songs. The motivation is for all to leave different than they came!

Please prayerfully consider Masterʼs Voice for any of the following: Concerts, Revivals, Conferences, Conventions, Fairs, Festivals, etc.

Masterʼs Voice is more than merely a southern gospel group. We know and understand that faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Rom. 10:17), and that it is through the foolishness of preaching, not singing, that men are saved (1 Cor. 1:21); so with that in mind, MV has a heart for the preaching of Godʼs word, so if you are in need of a revival or would like to know how to get MV to your conference, we would be honored to be involved as heavily as needed, whether it be music only, preaching only, or both.

Seeking Wisdom Together – Proverbs 6, 20-35

My son, keep your father’s commandment, and forsake not your mother’s teaching.

21 Bind them on your heart always; tie them around your neck.  22 When you walk, they will lead you; when you lie down, they will watch over you; and when you awake, they will talk with you.  23 For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching a light, and the reproofs of discipline are the way of life, 24 to preserve you from the evil woman, from the smooth tongue of the adulteress. 25 Do not desire her beauty in your heart, and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes; 26 for the price of a prostitute is only a loaf of bread, but a married woman hunts down a precious life.

27 Can a man carry fire next to his chest and his clothes not be burned?  28 Or can one walk on hot coals and his feet not be scorched?  29 So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife; none who touches her will go unpunished.  30 People do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his appetite when he is hungry, 31 but if he is caught, he will pay sevenfold; he will give all the goods of his house.  32 He who commits adultery lacks sense; he who does it destroys himself.  33 He will get wounds and dishonor, and his disgrace will not be wiped away.  34 For jealousy makes a man furious, and he will not spare when he takes revenge.  35 He will accept no compensation; he will refuse though you multiply gifts.

Sunday, December 29th, AM & PM Worship – Transformational Church

logoRomans 12:1-212 I appeal to you therefore, brothers,by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship, Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

Do want to be conformed to world or transformed by Christ?

Conformed to world [systematizo] – to form or mold one’s behavior in accordance with a particular pattern or set of standards.

Transformed by Christ [metamorpho] – to change the essential form or nature of something.

This Sunday we will look at the Transformational Church ministry by Lifeway and be reminded that we have already been “transformed” by Christ, now we want to see the transformation realized throughout the ministries of the church.

Missionary Mindset…Vibrant Leadership…Relational Intentionality…Prayerful Dependence…Worship: Actively Embrace Jesus…Community: Connect People with People…Mission: Show Jesus through Word and Action
