Notes and Quotes

Here are a few notes and quotes from our series based on the book of Acts, When Church Comes to Life:

Our missional focus in 2010 is to help people connect with God and others through Jesus Christ.

The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call. – Acts 2:39 NIV

When the church comes to life, good things begin to happen... people come to Christ, they grow in faith and friendship, and they use their gifts and resources for ministry. –Barry Howard

I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin;
I wouldn't ask my dear Saviour in.
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night;
Praise the Lord, I saw the light! - Hank Williams

There's light at the end of the darkness, So look up when you are down and try to believe. Sometimes we have to be knocked down to make us look upward. I was looking up through the bottom when it finally shined on me.

-Larry Gatlin

A Christian without a small group is an orphan. –Rick Warren

All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Acts 2:44-47 NIV

This Sunday we are in Acts 10. Our Bible study focus is on prayer and our sermon is focused on “Heaven’s Tablecloth.”

I am honored to serve alongside you as your pastor and I look forward to seeing you this Sunday as we dig deeper into the book of Acts.
