Do you have a need?

Let me introduce you to someone who can help

We all face difficult seasons in life, we’re all challenged at times and don’t always have the answers ourselves. And to be honest there are things we all face where we just need God to show up and perform a miracle on our behalf! We need someone to come and rescue us in our despair, discouragement, depression and devastation! We need someone to rescue us from our financial struggle, our battle with health and our broken relationships. The reason we need a Savior is because of separation from our Creator!

The Ripple Effect

How What We Do Matters More Than We Think

This weekend Emily and I witnessed our two oldest sons make a public declaration of their faith in Jesus – it was awesome! We celebrated with them in worship and in their baptism and afterwards our family all shared a meal together. We gave them gifts and let them know that their decision to follow Jesus was the biggest and best decision they’ll make their entire lives! Later that day my parents offered to watch our kids so we could go out. Emily and I went kayaking out of Cove Cay Marina and found it to be so peaceful. It was both beautiful and tranquil.

3 Things God Reveals Through Scripture

And How They Can Benefits Us

God speaks over 20,000 times in Scripture! He speaks through dreams, visions, signs, creation, prophets, the law and even a still small voice to name a few. As the Scripture says, “In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son.” Hebrews 1:1-2

The good news for us today is that He still speaks! He speaks through His still small voice, our pastor, spouse, a child, circumstances, strangers, countless ways really. While God can speak to us countless ways He primarily speaks through the Holy Spirit, his Son Jesus and through His Word. The Word of God is living and active (Hebrews 4:12) and it reveals to us what’s on the very mind of God! Today I’d like to touch on 3 primary things that God reveals through Scripture and how these truths can benefits us.
