The Christian New Year: “Prepared to See”
By: (All)
Scripture:  Mark 13:32-37, Romans 13:11-14
Guest Preacher:  Dr. Mike Pearson
 
Advent begins by looking, not at Jesus' first arrival, but at his final arrival.  The purpose of this is not to create anxiety in us, but to fill us with hope and to spur us toward following Jesus in all things.  Something happens in our hearts when we live watchfully, with Jesus' final arrival in mind:  our hearts are pulled toward Jesus and away from the things that compete with Jesus for our hearts.

    In this final week of our annual stewardship campaign, Rev. Clint McBroom talks about how God is moving us into the future. He is placing in our hearts a desire to sow for a work of God, and re-dedicate ourselves to our mission of reaching people with the good news of Jesus Christ.  Guest speakers will introduce four exciting new ministries being launched early in 2022: Small Groups, a new Mission House, Pray and Go, and a Young Adult Ministry.

    Scripture:  John 6:1-15
     
    Guest speaker and Lay Leader, Bob Reed, gives our sermon this morning, exploring Jesus' miracle in feeding the five thousand.  It's not the size of our offering for Christ that counts, it's our willingness to make that offering.  After all, the God who spoke into being the universe is more than capable of multiplying even the smallest of our gifts for his great glory!
