But the fruit of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self-Control.
3 Big Things: 1. My inability to change 2. My deep longing for things to be different 3. My desperate need for God's help
That's what our next sermon series is about. It's a season of church life called "Pentecost" that calls to mind the birth of the church and the pouring of the Holy Spirit on all God's people. It also sets us up to discover how life is supposed to be lived. Spend some time with Galatians 5:13-26. We'll be looking to God for help to stop what needs to stop, start what needs to star, and change what needs changing. Hopefully along the way, we'll find the freedom of forgiveness.
I love you, and I LOVE being Your Pastor! Rusty
BTW: We have some baptisms already planned for this Sunday. You're invited to the water as well. I'd love to hear your story. |
