On Sunday we will celebrate the 7th Sunday of Easter. Next May 23rd we celebrate Pentecost (wear red). Even though our Sundays of Easter are coming to a close, did you know that each and every Sunday is a celebration of Easter, the day each week when we intentionally set aside time to worship Jesus and to recall what God has done for us in his life, death, and resurrection. Each Sunday is a "little Easter" of sorts.
On May 16th our readings include Acts 16:16-34, Psalm 97, Revelation 22:12-21, and John 17:20-26. In the morning message I plan to focus on the passage from Revelation, and will also tie in a section of the Acts reading.
C.S. Lewis makes this statement in Christian Reflections, "There is no neutral ground in the universe: every square inch, every split second, is claimed by God and counterclaimed by Satan." In Sunday's message we will examine the concept of absolute truth alongside the reality that good is good, and that evil is evil, and that God sets the standard.
When we deny the existence of__________________________________ we have put ______________________ on the throne, and we are guilty of _____________________.
Please plan to join us! God has great things in store for our church. Let's all pitch in and be a part of what God is doing!
In Christ,
Becki+
