This week we continue in our series, God-Centered

  18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18

This week I will be looking at final scriptural command that will finish out our sermon series.  We have seen so far the importance of rejoicing in the Lord and being in a constant state of prayer.  The final quality of a "God-Centered" life is the outflow of these two qualities.  As we rejoice in God and stay in constant communion with Him our eyes will become open to all the blessings He has given us and will cause us to give Him heartfelt thanks.

Do we only thank Him when all is well?  Now this scriptural challenge is to thank Him in everything.  Something we can only accomplish by His grace.  Join us this Sunday as we finish the puzzle of a God-Centered life. 


Title: The Seriousness of Sin
Scripture: Mark 9:43-48

43 If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched-- 44 where 'Their worm does not die, And the fire is not quenched.' 45 And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched-- 46 where 'Their worm does not die, And the fire is not quenched.' 47 And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire-- 48 where 'Their worm does not die, And the fire is not quenched.' Mark 9:43-48 (NKJV)

This Sunday night at 6 PM Jeff will be bringing the evening message from the above passage of scripture.  Hope you can join us as Jeff challenges us to take sin seriously.
IN MY WORLD . . .

Every Thursday morning I meet with fellow pastors: Dan Gillette, Howard Merrell and Doug Williams for breakfast at McDonalds.  I have been doing this for over 30 years and have reaped great benefit from their friendship.  The Bible says there is safety in a multitude of counsel.  I thank God for their friendship, advice and being there when I needed them.  I hope you have some godly friends you can learn from and lean on.
How we thank God for our many volunteers at Faith.  Throughout the week they give of their time and talent to help the Lord's work here at Faith to go forward.  We could not afford to pay to have so much work done here at Faith.  Without our volunteers we could not function as a church.  Thanks to everyone who gives of their time, talent and treasure
