Pastor Mark's Weekly Update March 5, 2020

Fighting the Fear
Helicopter’s crashing, tragic car collisions, tornadoes in Nashville, and Coronavirus.  All of this is enough to raise fear in our hearts, and doubts in our minds.  Pastor Mark shares these articles with you to help us cling to the Sovereignty of God, and God’s good nature.

Do not forget to set your clocks ahead one hour before going to bed on Saturday night.  Sunday School and Worship just would not be the same without you!

 Quotes from Church History

• “[In reading the Old Testament] you have learned that there is balm in Gilead, that there is a great Physician there; He has checked your fearful, mortal malady, and you shall live. You have looked to the brazen serpent, you are healed. You have sprinkled your door post with the blood of God’s atoning Lamb, and the angel of destruction will pass you by. You have fled to the city of refuge, and the destroyer cannot come near you. You have laid your sins by faith on your substitute and He has borne them away into the wilderness. You have bathed in the fountain that was opened in the house of King David for sin and for uncleanness, and the defilement of guilt has been washed away. You have brought to Jesus the writing that bound you as a servant of sin, and He has annulled it by nailing it to His cross.” – John Broadus (1827-1895, Second President of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary)

AWANA Grand Prix
The AWANA Grand Prix was a huge success! We saw a lot of family participation and had the opportunity to explain that the night was not about winning trophies, but about a relationship with Jesus Christ. Thank you, Jerry, Amy, Tom, and Cheryl, and all those who helped make another AWANA Grand Prix a night to remember.

Quotes from Church History
“Some make gods of their pleasures; some choose Mammon for their god; some make gods of their own supposed excellencies, or the outward advantages they have above their neighbors: some choose one thing for their god, and others another. But men can be happy in no other God but the God of Israel: he is the only fountain of happiness.” – Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758, English American Theologian and Pastor)
