A Note From Pastor John:

Good morning!

Thanks to everyone who showed up for the town hall meeting Wednesday night. With one down and one to go, I hope you’ll be able to join us for the last town hall meeting this Sunday evening, 5pm at the Buford Rd campus. Your presence is so important as we go forth. After this coming Sunday’s town hall meeting, all that’s left is a congregational vote to approve the JRC proposal.

We don’t know what all the future holds, but we do know and worship the One who does. I’m excited to see what all God has in store for our community of faith. God is at work in our world and invites us to join him. How cool is that?

I look forward to worshipping with you this coming Sunday!

John

Leaving Unfinished Dreams

I Chronicles 22:5-16; Hebrews 11:13-16

Rev. Chris Wondree, Student Pastor 

We think the autumn of life as a time for looking back. Incredibly, David at the end of his day is looking forward, not back. At the end of his life, we do not see David lost in his memories. He is clearly dreaming forward. Which direction do you find yourself looking?

Make A Joyful Noise!

One thing I like to think about is how singing our praises to God is the one thing we are doing now that we will be doing for all eternity! Isn’t that an awesome thought! This week, the praise band is doing an anointed song that is truly a song of praise and worship. “Revelation Song” was written by Jennie Riddle after she had heard a powerful song about angels praising God. She writes “I asked the Holy Spirit to help me write a song that painted Him, a song that the angels and creation were already singing, so that we could join in with One Voice, as One Bride, to One King. My heart recalled Ezekiel 1:26-28 and Revelation 4”. If you have time this weekend, read over these passages and get inspired!

On Sunday, you can join us as we sing:

“‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty,’[b]

who was, and is, and is to come!”

Looking forward to singing His praise with you this Sunday. Hope you are having a blessed day!
