UPdate

Greetings, everyone! It is the end of a full day of ministry, so I will make every attempt to be brief and to the point.


TOMORROW is THE LORD’S DAY
You can view or download tomorrow's bulletin here. Take a few moments to read through and meditate on the Scriptures for the service. Please note the correction in the Scripture reading, Acts 4:32-35 and 1 John 1:1 - 2:2.

THIS WEEK'S Fighter Verse (James 1:4-5) and Announcements are available here. Tomorrow evening is church council at 5 pm followed by our monthly member meeting at 6 pm.

BONUS: If you are concerned about the moral revolution so rapidly happening all around us (and you should be), you will do well to listen to this episode of The Briefing with Al Mohler. Here, Dr. Mohler discusses the current legislation in Arkansas to protect youths and children with gender dysphoria, the "scandal" of a British Labour Party leader attending a Christian church which actually adheres to the biblical understanding of gender and sexuality, and the subject of Biblical complementarianism with particular reference to Beth Moore and her recent announcement that she is leaving the Southern Baptist Convention.


See you in church!


Grace and Peace,


Pastor Greg
