I share three ways that we often deal with major hurts & the third forgiveness is the only way to be free inside.

A Note From The Pastor

A Note From The Pastor
August 2, 2021 by
Ed Vinson in Note From Pastor Friends,
I was going to share this yesterday in my sermon, but at the last minute decided to share it through my email. I don’t know the source.
Everything I need to know, I learned from Noah’s Ark…
1. Don’t miss the boat.
2. Remember that we are all in the same boat.
3. Plan ahead. It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.
4. Stay fit. When you’re 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
5. Don’t listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.
6. Build your future on high ground.
7. For safety’s sake, travel in pairs.
8. Speed isn’t always an advantage. The snails were on board with cheetahs.
9. When you’re stressed, float a while.
10. Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.
11. No matter the storm, when you are with God, there’s always a rainbow waiting.
Please keep Nicole Langston (Asst. Director of the Day School) and her family in your prayers. Nicole’s father was called home over the weekend.
Please also keep Laura Seal, Phyllis Young’s niece, in prayer as she’s having surgery this morning.
