From the Pastor - October 2019
As we explored in our study of Paul, we found that he proudly proclaimed that he was a Jew, and it was easy to see how that identity shaped pretty much everything he did.

God is here today, as certain as the air I breathe, as certain as the morning sun that rises, as certain when I sing you hear my song. ~Traditional Mexican Song
I have not always been eager to preach from Paul’s Epistles. Sometimes I find his writing confusing. Sometimes he makes me mad. Sometimes I discount him because he was such a product of his culture.
Lord, we know that You will come again in glory to raise the living and the dead. Resurrect us now from the death of comfort, complacency, sloth, and shallowness that we might witness to Your love in life and death. Amen
Everywhere I go, dear Lord, You’re near me. If I call upon You, You will hear me. Never will I fear, for the Lord is near, everywhere I go.
