Life has often been compared to a race, with a different starting and finishing line for each person. And instead of competing with each other, we are to discipline ourselves to reach the goal—eternal life in Heaven. Obstacles hinder our journey, but with Jesus as our Helper, we will be victorious!

When life gets rough, I sometimes forget all that Jesus has done for me. Yet Christ’s death and resurrection to require a response from me. What are we to do in response to salvation? Come this Sunday and find out.

For the last few weeks I’ve been thinking, “the more things change, the more they stay the same.” So much focus has been placed on changes, but nothing at the core is really any different. God is still working to save sinners. Satan is still working to destroy lives. And you and I get to choose God or evil. I choose God and His will for my life!

We had a wonderful time of fellowship and prayer last Wednesday during the Zoom meeting. There were about 10 people in attendance (that doesn’t count the dogs and cats!). We hope that more of you will join in.

We have learned over and over that the expression of “my rights” often lead to acts of rebellion. The life of Christ has taught me that my Christian responsibilities are almost always more important than claiming my rights. We hope to see you this Sunday!

Another turbulent week with record Covid deaths and major election protests. Many Christians are concerned, even burdened, about the country we love. Politicians will not solve our fundamental moral problems, but Christ can. The Answer is Jesus, transforming one life at a time.
