  • Prayer Circle – September 24, 2017

    … praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints … Ephesians 6:18

    Running can be frustrating. Results of your hard work may not be seen right away. You may feel you have hit a plateau and you have gone as far and as fast as you’re going to get. But like most things in life, running takes perseverance. Do not give up. Be persistent. You can meet your goals!

    God calls His people to persevere through prayer. Jesus taught a parable about a persistent widow who found herself at the feet of an immoral judge. After repeatedly begging the judge for justice, he finally granted it to her. To what did he attribute his change of heart? Her perseverance (Luke 18:1-8).

    In this world of sin, constantly seeking God’s will without immediately seeing results can be frustrating. Do not give up! God hears the prayers of His faithful and rewards their perseverance.

    Dear God, sometimes the injustice and immorality of the world is just plain frustrating. Thank You for continuing to listen to the cries of Your people and granting both justice and hope to the world.

  • Prayer Circle – September 17, 2017

    The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.  Lamentations 3:25-26 (NIV)

    Life is woven together with good days and troublesome days. The good times are easy to navigate, but it is during the tough times that our faith is put to the test. Troubles will come our way, but what is important is how we handle them and where we put our hope and trust.

    We do have choices. We can hit the panic button or lose sleep from worrying. Or we can turn to our trusted Friend, God our heavenly Father, Who is always ready to listen to those who seek Him. In Him is our hope for a brighter tomorrow.

    Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful (Hebrews 10:23 NIV).

    I sought the LORD and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears (Psalm 34:4 NIV).

  • Prayer Circle – September 3, 2017

    Who will receive eternal life? Jesus says:

    I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned … (John 5:24a).

    For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day (John 6:40).

    My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand (John 10:27-28).

    Jesus came to earth to bring life and salvation to all people. Salvation is God’s free gift to all who believe that Jesus died on the cross and rose again. No believer will be turned away.

    Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life (Revelation 2:10). (more…)

    The Word EnduresLessons from Luther Yesterday and Today.  September 10th  – November 5th

    Adult Sunday Morning Study at 9:15am.  Master teachers are a rare find.  Their teachings transcend centuries and impact learners well after them.  Martin Luther was a teacher from whom we can still learn lessons about prayer, marriage and freedom.  In 1530 the Reformation of the Christian church was in full swing. Martin Luther’s popularity had pushed his writings to the top of the best-seller list. What if you had a chance to hear him speak? What if you could sit at the feet of this scholar of Scripture who taught crowds of not just princes but also peasants? You can… in this study. Join us at the feet of Luther!  Child care will be provided for ages 0-3.  Sunday School is available for all other ages.

    Attention Parents!

    A 9-week parenting Bible class entitled “Christian Parenting – A Labor of Love” will be taught by Tom Hering and begin on Sunday, September 10.  This series is for all parents. On the basis of God’s great love for parents and children, we will explore many ways in which parents show love for their children. The class will meet in the classroom off the fellowship hall during the regular Sunday morning Bible class hour. Child care is provided.

    Mom’s Circle

    Moms (and Dads) are invited to attend our Mom’s Circle group for a time of kids’ play and parents visiting! The group meets at Our Savior in our music room, which is located on the lower level hallway between the church fellowship hall and family life center lower lobby.

  • Prayer Circle – August 27, 2017

    Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.  Proverbs 27:1

    Today is ours, a gift from God. Whether the sun is shining brightly or heavy rains are pounding against the windows, God wants us to have this day. Whether we are happy or sad, healthy or disabled, God made each of us part of His plan for today.

    This is the day that the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it (Psalm 118:24).

    So why do we spend so much time thinking about tomorrow? The Psalmist instructs us to rejoice in this day — the day that is here and now. Boasting about tomorrow won’t get it done today! All too soon it will be tomorrow, and we may have passed up an opportunity that should have been taken today. With the power of God’s Holy Spirit behind us, let’s get busy and do what must be done today! Today is mine, God, a gift from You. How do You want me to use it? (more…)
