Pastor Don’s 1st Person Narratives
Sunday, December 17 at 9:30 and 11 AM
Services will be combined on December 17th to see Pastor Don’s 1st-person narrative. Both services will meet in the Worship Center but will still meet at the usual times at 9:30 and 11:00am. Pastor Don will dress up as a biblical character and tell the story of our Savior’s birth from that character’s perspective. It will be a special time as we focus our attention on the birth of God’s son.
What is a first-person narrative?
It is the creation of a real-to-life account of a biblical person or event, built on a factual framework of Scripture, history and tradition, while allowing the imagination to flesh-out the story. What makes such a sermon true to life is not found in the incidental details which are presented, but in the reality of their universal humanity

Tuesday Evening Men’s Study
7:00 – 8:00 PM BY ZOOM
Our time together begins with fellowship and prayer. Usually, we have a Scripture to read or review from our study book. Then we study by discussing the questions from our lesson.
During the discussion, the men are free to raise situations or issues that they are facing. Our goal is to go beyond knowledge and understanding to gain wisdom. We do that by thinking of ways to apply God’s truth to our lives. We have 3 rules: 1) We try to be prepared to answer the questions. 2) We don’t give advice but offer counsel. 3) Everything is to be held confidential. We always close with prayer requests and prayer.
We are very informal and enjoy getting to know each other. Many of our men are older, mature Christians, and all of us wish to be all that Christ would have us to be.
This is a great time to join in! We are currently studying, James: The Relationship Between Faith and Works by David Jeremiah.

How thankful we are to be able to approach the Lord in prayer, and how desperately we need Him! Please join the pastors for prayer followed by a rich time in the Word. All are welcome.
The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
