Beatitudes Week 6

Tuesday night, we conclude our study of the Beatitudes, focusing on Matthew 5:10-12. It is an evening discussing persecution and why Jesus tells us we will face persecution if we follow him. What does that mean for our lives? How does the knowledge that Christians will face persecution help us face the difficulties of life? Watch what happened on January 12, 2021, at 8 p.m. All are welcome.

Be Fearless, November 3, 2020

Presented for your consideration on a truly  contentious day: 

“F-E-A-R has two meanings: 'Forget Everything And Run' or 'Face Everything And Rise.' The choice is yours.”

― Zig Ziglar

“Fearlessness is the first requisite of spirituality. Cowards can never be moral.”

― Jesus

COVID-19 Information Resources for Pastors and Congregations

American Baptist Churches USA has collected some valuable resources for use by ministers and their congregations in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. Immersing ourselves in fact is one way to avoid fear, and certainly a way to avoid misinformation, allowing us to follow the instruction in Ephesians 5:5: Let no one deceive you with empty words. See: https://www.abc-usa.org/coronavirus/

May we all stand on our faith in God. May God be our rock in times of trouble, our firm foundation in the storm.
