MTC ONLINE | "WHERE'S DANIEL?" (Daniel 2:46-49)

A Mission-Driven Church

Our Mission...

The Memorial Tabernacle Church has come together by the Holy Spirit for the specific purpose of preaching and teaching the word of God, (the Bible), and about Jesus Christ, God's son, and to proclaim the gospel of the Kingdom of God to the North Oakland Community and its environs; to bring healing to the brokenhearted and deliverance to the oppressed.

Notes On Sunday's Sermon

"WHERE'S DANIEL?" ( Daniel 2:46-49)

Everyone has an individual race with its own challenges that must be faced. Paul tells Timothy, "I'm ready to be offered up and the time of my departure is at hand. I've fought a good fight. I've kept the faith. I've finished my course (2 Tim. 4:6-7)."

In Daniel's absence, the three Hebrew boys discover that this isn't Daniel's challenge. This is their challenge. This is a part of their course. This is a part of their fight. The same is true for you. Whatever confronts you is a part of your race. It's a part of your fight. It's a part of your journey. But notice that it's not the whole fight. It's just a part of the fight. It's not the whole course. It's just a part of the course. It's not the whole race. It's just a part of the race. Since it's just part of the race and the fight, you might as well fight and run this part of the race!

When you face challenges that are uniquely yours to face, the good news is that you don't have to go it alone. When the Daniels of your life aren't around, the most important person is still present. The most important person is God, just God. God will be present. He's promised to be with you. God says, "Fear not, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through the deep water and great trouble, I will be with you. When you go through the rivers of great difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you."

Because of Chri st,

Pastor Ulysses Stephen King, Jr.

The Resurrection of Our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ

Season of Lent

March 1st - April 13th

Lent is a 40-day fast and will run up until the Saturday before Easter or Resurrection Sunday (not including Sundays within this period). The Lent period reflects when Jesus fasted and suffered in the desert for 40 days and 40 nights, before he started his ministry.

According to the Bible, he was tempted by Satan during this time, but each time he managed to refuse his temptations. People follow Jesus' example and give up vices in a bid to grow closer to God as Easter or Resurrection Sunday approaches.

Christian Education: Bible Study
Tuesdays, 7:00PM

During this season of Lent, we invite all to be a part of our Tuesday evening Bible Study Class as we always do.

"Then Jesus said to His disciples, 'If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.'" (Matthew 16:24)

Join us each week as we revisit the last steps of Jesus before he went to the cross. Let us walk with Jesus towards the cross. Doors open at 6:40PM, and class begins at 7:00PM. Class is held in the main sanctuary.

All are welcome to learn, grow, explore, and engage!
