    An Army of One

    We are no

    interviewing c

    is time for you

    Christ and His

    church to sche

    pastors.

    To kick-start the New Year we will be holding a special week of services starting

    on January 15th at 11:00 AM. We are calling it Renewal 2012. I can't help but

    think of the Israelites as they prepared to leave Mt. Sinai for the Promise

    Land. They had greatly displeased the Lord and transgressed his Covenant

    before it was even ratified. So, God said to Moses, "Go up to a Land flowing with

    milk and honey, but I will not go up among you." Then Moses, sensing the

    devastation of being on Mission without God, cried out, "If your presence will notgo with me, do not bring us up from here.... Is it not in your going with us, so

    that we are distinct?" Ex 33:

    This is our prayer for 2012: That we would be on Mission with Christ; that we

    would be filled with a zeal for the Great commission; but most importantly, that

    God would go with us! It is in His presence that we are Renewed.

    And on top of all of that, Northside Baptist Church will be joining with us for

    Renewal 2012. Christians coming together in unity and diversity is great. But,

    two churches coming together in unity and diversity to beseech God for His favor

    and presence is an even greater gift of God's grace.

    So, please be encouraged by what God is doing to invite friends and family to a

    special New Year's celebration, Renewal 2012.

    Service Times: Sun @ 11:00 & 6:00; Mon, Tues, Wend @ 7:00 PM; prayer and

    fasting starting @ 4:00 PM

    When Mary heard the Gospel message from

    quickly rushed to Elizabeth for guidance, wisdo

    is a clear Biblical principle that truth outside of C

    and community tends to pride and distortion.
