BE THE DIFFERENCE SLIDE.png

A QUICK NOTE FROM PASTOR KEITH...

Merriam-Webster defines the word DIFFERENCE as the quality or state of being dissimilar or a characteristic that distinguishes one from another or from the average. This is exactly what comes to mind when I think about the church in the book of Acts. Here is how the Bible describes the reputation they had in the community…

 

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 2:46-47 NIV

 

Some of the words that stand out to me are: Glad, Sincere, Growing, and Favor in the Community.

Are those the first words that come to mind when you think about church? For most people the words that come to mind are: Boring, Hypocritical, and Condemning. This is why as a church we want to be DIFFERENT and BE THE DIFFERENCE in our community. Join us over the next 90 days as we take intentional steps to be a church like that 1st church in the book of Acts.

                                                                                                                 

                                                                                                                                -Pastor Keith

SHOULD HAPPENS INVITE CARDS.png

BE THE DIFFERENCE INDIVIDUALLY

Are you ever overwhelmed by what you should and shouldn't do? Most of us spend far too much time living in the “shoulds." I should do this. I should do that. I should go there. We “should on” ourselves, a lot. 

 

All these “shoulds” can get very heavy and lead to a less-than life that robs us of the life we want and are meant to live. It's time to live your best life, by becoming aware of the “shoulds” that sit on your shoulder and convene in the courtrooms in your mind.

Each week we'll provide questions you can use with your family to facilitate discussions about each message.

Make plans to join us for our new series starting in October!
