PASTOR JEFF'S PONDERINGS

Stepping out in Faith

5/22/2014

 
Have you ever been scared to try something new?  Perhaps you've been reluctant to try a new food or try an activity or go to an event.  There are any number of things that we may feel reluctant to try out - and some of those are probably wise to avoid.  But not all of them. 
Spend a few minutes with An and Ria, a couple of elderly Dutch women, as they try something they've never experienced before: flying on an airplane. 
Life can be enhanced by new experiences like this. But more than simply trying something new, there are times when God calls us to take a step of faith and follow him into a potentially scary, new direction.  That's when we have a decision to make: will we play it safe and stay put or will we follow God's lead into an unknown future?

This Sunday, we'll take a look at a story in the life of Abram (later known as Abraham) and how he responded to God calling him to take a huge step of faith.  Are you listening and responding to God's call?  I hope you'll be able to join us.

On June 8th we'll be having at least one baptism as a part of the worship. I wanted to open this up to anyone else who would also like to be baptized on that day.  If you're interested in talking about this, please let me know.

Family Dinner & A Movie!
Saturday, June 7th    4-7:30 pm
Everyone is invited to a delightful spaghetti dinner, Disney movie and fun discussion.  Consider inviting a neighbor family and join us even if you don't have young children. This is a wonderful chance to interact with the children in our congregation and build relationships across the generations.


Look for sign-ups in the church Fellowship Hall or contact Mandy Schmekel for more information.
