Any Given Sunday

On any given Sunday, if your child attends our Children's Ministry Worship Service, they will experience the following: Kid friendly worship, interactive games, fellowship with other kids and leaders, and age-appropriate bible teaching while having fun! Our hope is by the time your child moves on from the Preschool ministry, they will know the following:
  • God Made them.
  • God Loves them.
  • Jesus Wants to Be Their Friend Forever
Then once they move on to Junior High, they know the following:
  • I need to make the wise choice
  • I can trust God no matter what
  • I should treat others the way I want to be treated
Our goal is to impact kids and families with the love and message of Jesus Christ so they may grow to have faith in Him forever. I shared last week the spiritual milestones we celebrate at our church to partner with you, the parents (spiritual leaders of the home) – that is how we impact families. What happens on Sunday mornings is how we share the love and message of Jesus Christ with our children. 
This month your preschooler is learning God loves them no matter what – even when they are having a meltdown at Target. Your elementary child is learning they can trust God no matter what – even if they have worry or anxiety – He is there for them always. When you get a chance this week, read Proverbs 3:5 (memory verse) and remind them of God's love and that they can always trust Him!

Reason

Over 20 years ago, I realized why I was born. No, I am not referring to my calling as a pastor, although it was during this same time frame. However, I did incorporate my self-worth and financial status into my work before this period. That worldly perspective was before I met Jesus. Although I grew up attending church, I didn’t know Him. I knew of God but didn’t know God. I did not know Jesus. When my wife and I found a church to attend consistently, we encountered the Living Word of God through hearing His word and applying His truths in our marriage, home, and church (Hebrews 4:12). This was the beginning of our understanding that words and actions matter. Especially in our faith – I have found this the most joyful and appealing thing about our relationship with the Lord. We can read the holy Scriptures and know that these words are trustworthy and that God follows through with His plans (Hebrews 10:23). This Sunday, our Children’s Ministry will conclude its series on the virtue of ...

Doubt

There are over 70,000 self-help books on the Amazon website, and over 6,000 manuscripts contend with the battle of doubt. Honestly, I thought both of those numbers would be larger. Nevertheless, much discussion exists about a struggle that can invade our minds and hearts. Doubt can hinder our relationships, jobs, and sometimes our faith. But, of course, it is beneficial to raise suspicion sometimes. For example, when we doubt a course of action that seems unwise, hopefully, it is a decision made after wise counsel and prayer (Proverbs 15:22; Philippians 4:6). Unfortunately, people (me included) have succumbed to doubt because it is an easier choice. A Spanish proverb argues, “Among the safe courses, the safest of all is to doubt.” No matter the reason, doubt could prevent us from experiencing a full life with God (Psalm 16:11; 2 Timothy 1:7). Moments before our Lord gave His  great commission  to His disciples, they came to Him in worship and praised their risen King. Then, as...

God's Love. God's Plan.

Back in August, we did a series in K-5 ministry about God's compassion for His people, beginning in the book of Genesis. The idea is to introduce the children to  God's big story – the journey of God's love through time and His involvement.  Explaining first that God's actions are out of love (1 John 4:16), and He always has a plan (Proverbs 19:21; Romans 8:28). These certainties inevitably are said no matter what Scripture we are discussing. Our desire as a family ministry is for both children and students to know our faithful, loving God and want to obey His commands out of the love they have for Him.   Starting this Sunday, we will explore the connection between Christmas and God's character, as shown through His big story. Soon we will celebrate the birth of Jesus, the ultimate example of God's faithfulness, His love, and the remarkable fulfillment of a plan to save His people (1 John 4:9-10). It began with a promise in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3:15; 1 J...
