CALVARY CHURCH WEEKLY NEWS |

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2021 |

Last Sunday, we saw an example of those who “grumbled at the master of the house” (Matthew 20:11). They resented the fact that the master showed grace and generosity to those who had worked less than they had. Attitudes of grumbling and complaining are part of our fallen nature. But, the more we grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, the more thankful we are, and the less we find ourselves “grumbling or disputing” (Philippians 2:14). Thankfulness is a characteristic of spiritual maturity.
Our society increasingly focuses on our rights and entitlements, but followers of Jesus are called to be thankful. On Sunday, November 21, at 6:00 PM, we will meet for a Thanksgiving service and gather around the Lord’s Table for communion. Please plan to attend that service, and come with a thankful heart! We will worship in songs of thanksgiving, have an opportunity to express our thanks to God, and be challenged to “shine as lights in the world” (Philippians 2:15).

“But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be your slave, even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” — Matthew 20:26–28
