We are glad that you are here today. You may have been invited by someone or received a text or a letter inviting you today. Whichever way you got here today, it is because of God. God is why we seek and search in order to not only know more, but to have a deeper relationship with the Lord. My hope and prayer is that you are inspired and moved in a special way that would draw your closer to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Feel free to use the “Connect Card” in the pew. Use it to let me know of any requests that you may have and responses to today’s message given by Dr. Elizabeth Talbot.
