CHBC Weekly for August 23, 2022
The Mission of CHBC – The Glory of God
It is a Biblical truth that God is glorious, and because He is God, He alone deserves all glory. It is also true that He acts in ways that show His glory. The establishment of the church is a glorious act of God. In other words, the church exists in order to reflect glory back to Him, and to show the world that He is glorious in all His dealings. One of the foundations upon which CHBC rests is this: We exist for the glory of God. That should inform our motive, and guard our actions.
Ekklesia in the Park – Little River Park at 5 PM
CHBC will meet at the south end of Little River Park next to the splash pad. We will have a pavilion reserved for us to have a time to sing, have a devotion, and share a hot dog with those who are at the park to enjoy their families. This is a way for us to be the church in the community. Please join us for a time of fellowship among our community.
Truth at Home
You may have noticed the large display being built in the Main Hall at the north entrance of our building as you come to the Children and Student wing of the education building. This display is our Truth at Home resource center. CHBC wants to provide families with material to deal with the challenging conversations and changing times of raising children, launching children, and experiencing other life-changing events. These resources are meant to be a starting point to open the door to conversations with pastors, biblical counselors, or others. The resource center is still under construction but will soon be fully functioning and available. Please stop by frequently as the material will be updated regularly.
Other Upcoming Activities
August 28 – Little River Park Cookout & Outreach (5-7 PM)
September 4 – Labor Day Picnic (5 PM)
Scripture of the Month
Hebrews 4:16, “Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Each week CHBC says aloud a passage of Scripture during our morning worship gathering. This is done for two reasons. First, we are commanded in Scripture to encourage one another with the Word of God. Second, we want to emphasize the spiritual discipline of Scripture memory. Receive a text to your phone with this verse set to music by texting the word “CHBCVERSE” to the number (302) 207-SONG (7664).
Prayer
Pray for one another to deepen their love for God’s word. You may be helping to protect them from stumbling headlong into sin.
Psalm 119:165
“Those who love Your law have great peace, and nothing causes them to stumble.”
Mark D. DeMoss, Senior Pastor
