The Way of the Cross

How to become a Christian

 Admit that you are a sinner

“For All have sinned and come short of the glory of God”

Romans 3:23

Believe that Jesus died for your sins

“For if you confess with your mouth jesus is lord and believe
in your heart that god raised him from the dead you shall be saved”

Romans 10:9

Commit your life to him

“If any of you wants to be my follower, you must put
aside your selfish ambition, shoulder your cross and follow me.”

Matthew 16:24

Invite Christ into your life and heart today
“For the wages of sin is death but the gift
of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ”

Romans 6:23

 

 

 Small Groups / Bible Study 

 

Overview - Our Mission

We have a passion for our small group / Bible study sessions.  This upcoming church year prayerfully will see us focused to ministering to each other as well as the community around us.  It is in these sessions that the groups coordinated and lead by a shepherd unpacks the mysterious and extraordinary wonders that are God.  These groups unpack Bible basics for young children all the way to applying God's eternal Word to all of the things we face in our natural lives as well as the cornerstone in beginning to get a handle on the awesome nature of God.

Our mission is in a small group setting explore God's World as well as develop and strengthen each member's understanding of God but more importantly their relationship with Him through Jesus Christ by His Grace through the Holy Spirit.

Proverbs 3:5-7 NASB95
     5     Trust in the Lord with all your heart
And do not lean on your own understanding.
     6     In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He will make your paths straight.
     7     Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and turn away from evil.

Strength and Understanding are Through
God Alone

There is only one Truth and it walked in the flesh and was and is and is to come.  Christ is truth manifested in the flesh sacrificed for our reconciliation to God.  He bridged the gap between God and Sin and man.  If you have Christ, it is now just God and Man purchased by the blood of Christ.  In our studies and discussions, our shepherds seek God and His spirit and show each other how to truly rely and live in Christ.  We seek to be the fruit and His witness.  His glory manifested through us to demonstrate His love for mankind.
 
John 15:1-11 NASB95
Jesus Is the Vine?Followers Are Branches
     1     "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
     2     "Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more fruit.
     3     "You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
     4     "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.
     5     "I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.
     6     "If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned.
     7     "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
     8     "My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples.
     9     "Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.
     10     "If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.
     11     "These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.


 We seek truth and understading by the Grace of God.  Our shepherd's and people minister to the needs of each other seeking God's direction and providence.  God is love.

The Hostess Committee will have Easter Lilies available for purchase and placement in the Sanctuary over Easter time.  If you wish to purchase a lily in honor or in memory of a loved one please complete the form provided in the Lobby and give it to me or Carolyn Cheshire, along with your payment for the cost of the plant.  The cost of the plants this year will be $8.00 each.  This is a beautiful way to remember and honor loved ones who have been a blessing to your life.

As we all know, Jackson and Cianna are planning to be married in June of this year.  We will be hosting a wedding shower in the honor of the happy couple on March 27, 2010, in the Fellowship Hall.  Please mark your calendar to hold this date open and we will be providing further details at a later date.  Jackson has been a wonderful blessing to our church and we extend them our best wishes.

We wish to thank the campers for the wonderful work they did in our kitchen area and Fellowship Hall.  We will miss them, but know their wonderful work and testimony is much needed at other locations.  We wish them well and will continue to pray for their ministry.

In Christ,

Kaye

We are entering our Spring quarter.  Exciting studies traveling through the Book of Daniel to in depth study in Colossians and Ecclesiastes all focusing on Jesus Christ and what He can do through believers as well as what believers can do and face with Him as part of their lives.  God's Word unlocks the mysteries and truths about living in a world that offers challenges at every turn.  A relationship with Jesus Christ is the beginning to understanding and seeing these events for what they are but also how to "Face Your Giants" with Him by your side.  Come and unpack what God's Word has to say with us and arm yourself to face life's challenges.
