Another weekend is in the books and we had a great one. I was coming off a 3 day/2 night retreat with our elders. We discussed 2012, future leaders, future plans, current visions and strategies and how we can be more effective in serving Crestview. Very good stuff.
On Sunday AM, my sermon Confidence came from Hebrews 6:9-12. The writer of Hebrews wrote to encourage these he had called out as spiritually immature by encouraging them to have confidence for the future based on how they lived today, not based on something in the past. Hope would be found as they rested in God’s promises and continued to trust Christ. I hope the sermon was encouraging to you. It said much about encouragement, serving others and assurance of salvation.
In the evening, our church met in small groups. We continue to discuss Jerry Bridges book Respectable Sins. My group discussed ungodliness. We thought about ways that we can repent of this by centering more on God throughout our daily lives.
It was a full day and weekend and we’re off on another one. Blessings to you as you seek to honor God in it.
