Make worship a priority this weekend. God has done so much for us--let's stop for an hour to remember and give thanks! There is so much to be thankful for. I have certainly been thankful for some warm weather lately--I hope you have enjoyed it as well. But there is so much more. Family, friends, food, fun, freedom--and of course our faith. This weekend is a time to remember--what others have done for us--how many have sacrificed to give us the freedoms we have. As C. S. Lewis once said, "We need to be reminded more often than we need to be instructed." So let us remember--and be thankful.
I can't wait to be with you on Sunday with another exposition from Mark 9. The disciples saw someone doing great things in the name of Jesus and told them to stop. Jesus surprises them (and perhaps you) by his response. I'm looking forward to blessing you. LIke Jesus, I'm sure to stir up a bit of controversy as well. Kurt and the team are getting ready to lead us in worship this weekend. Come and bring a friend. Then go have some fun.
For Your Joy,
Lionel
