Readiness For Sunday Worship
Have you ever taken the time to think about your readiness when gathering together with God’s people in worship on Sunday?
When I was growing up, after dinner every Saturday night, my parents had us lay out our clothes for Sunday, bathe or shower, and go to bed a bit earlier so we would be ready and energized Sunday morning when we climbed into our station wagon (remember those?) and drove to church. My point is we had a plan for readiness on Sunday because it was an important day for our family. We would get our mind, body, and spirit ready to give our best to the Lord and with His people (and I might add, we were never late).
Disciplemakers
This Sunday, January 5th, we begin our 13th DDM (Disciple Development Month) that began almost 4 years ago in January of 2021. We schedule this focus three times a year (January, May-June, September) to intentionally focus our attention on internalizing and applying our God-given mission “to glorify God by making more and better disciples of Jesus Christ through intentional relationships.” These 3–4 week DDMs are designed to highlight and reinforce the more, better & intentional parts of our mission.
Why Read the Bible
There are many reasons to make a commitment to read your Bible regularly and there’s no better time to start than at the beginning of a new year.
God is all-knowing, all-wise, all-truth, and all-good, so what He says is authoritative, accurate, supernatural, sufficient, and indispensable for our lives. Here are just a few of the many benefits of reading God’s Word:
Don’t Miss Christmas
It seems very strange that the world would hold such an elaborate and enormous birthday party and then totally miss the very Person it is being held in honor of, yet this is what happens every year. However, missing Christmas is not a modern-day phenomenon as you could trace it back to the very first Christmas.
