June's Focus: The Purpose of God

Hi folks,

We are so thankful to God for all that He has done and for how faithful He has been to us during this past month. As we journey forward we will continue to celebrate “the family” – both our own and the church. Neither we nor the world we live in is perfect, but it is the world in which we experience goodness of God. To keep your focus on Jesus!

After everything Job experienced, he declared: “I know that you can do all things; no purpose of yours can be thwarted” (Job 42:2). What an amazing perspective and attitude to have a life? We need to answer the following questions:
·                What is purpose?
·                Why do I need purpose?
·                How do I discover God’s purpose for me?
·                How do I live in it?

There are great things laying ahead for us in June, so check the bulletin to see when important events take place. There are camps; new things to sign up for; and opportunities for God to use you. Don’t miss the ministry opportunities if relationships are a priority for you or if you long to be free from pain in them and to grow. Sign up if you want to be part of God’s purposes in changing the city! I look forward to sharing with you in these things during this month.

Join us as we journey in “Discovering God’s Eternal Purposes.”
You are blessed in order to bless.

The River of God - Key Scriptures From the Threshold of the Temple The man brought me back to the entrance to the temple, and I saw water coming out from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was coming down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar. He then brought me out through the north gate and led me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and the water was trickling from the south side. As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits and then led me through water that was ankle-deep. He measured off another thousand cubits and led me through water that was knee-deep. He measured off another thousand and led me through water that was up to the waist. He measured off another thousand, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in--a river that no one could cross. He asked me, "S...

Ekids - Week 4 (Shield of Faith)

Bible Story Page (4-5) “Exploring Canaan” (Numbers 13-14) GIVE each child a paper plate and a coloring utensil. Then, SAY: ALLOW kids to put plates on top of heads. Then, READ the story below. ALLOW kids to look at their drawings and score them based on the numbers below: In Numbers 13-14, there is a story about two men who relied on their faith in God to protect their hearts when everyone else was weakr. As I read this Bible story, I will give you instructions about what to draw on your plate! BUT…you have to put the plate on top of your head while you draw! A long time ago, God’s people, the Israelites, were slaves in Egypt. But God used a man named Moses to free them from slavery and lead them to the amazing land that God promised them. After being in the desert for many years, Moses and the Israelites finally arrived at Canaan, the land that God had promised to give them. Moses chose 12 men to go into the land. He wanted them to see what it looked like, if...
