Book Reviews: Dealing with Pain and Suffering

Did you notice the title of this blog entry? Usually, I will name the title of a book that I have read. This month is different because there are two books that the church is making available.

We do not need to look very far outside our homes to see people who are driven by self-motivation, pleasure, relativism, and power. Sinners Wanted What an incredible opportunity for the gospel of Jesus Christ!

THIS IS MY PASSION!  I love the idea of meeting people where they are with the truth. Let us go out to the world and declare the excellence of the gospel.

Expressions of Thanks

As a church family, we have much to be thankful for.  Here is some of what was shared on Wednesday evening last week, as we gave thanks to God together for His amazing kindness to us in Christ Jesus.


Give Thanks

  • So thankful for the trials in our lives that have drawn us, as a family, closer to Christ.  My health issues have been overwhelming at times and yet God continues to be faithfully beside me, healing me and providing.
  • As a young Christian, I am extremely thankful that I can clearly see God laying out a path for me. I find peace of mind knowing that I can think about my future & know that it is in God’s hands and He has the road all mapped out for me
  • God has been so faithful through my trial of cancer this past year. The body was so amazing in supporting both me and my family. Surrounding us with love and compassion. Through this trial, I have been able to minister to other women who are now facing cancer. It is pure joy to share with them how my faith and hope reside in my great Almighty God! I can’t wait for heaven, where I will get a new glorified whole body.
