From Pastor Charlie: Good Morning Church Family and Friends.
I watched a favorite Pastor preach last night then feel asleep listening to Psalms on my Bible app on my tablet. What a way to end a day. I’m so grateful, thankful, and blessed, to live in a country where I still have the right and opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I believe many take that for granted, spoiled on our freedoms, so to speak. Many people are less fortunate than we are. In many countries around the world today people are being slaughtered for their Christian beliefs. I beg you, never take your beliefs lightly. Share your beliefs and testimonies with others.
Matthew 5:14-16. “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.
15 “Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.”
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. “
God Loves You, so do Marty and I.❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Colossians 2:6-7.
“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him,
7 rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.”
How did you receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior? “ By Faith”. And that’s exactly how we grow into maturity, by faith. Through faith, we depend upon God’s Spirit to mold us into the image of Christ. God Loves You, so do Marty and I.❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

From Pastor Charlie: Good Morning Church Family and Friends.
Proverbs 17:22. “A merry heart does good, like medicine,
but a broken spirit dries the bones.”
I choose to have a merry heart. How we face the day makes so much difference. A positive merry heart even though we may be going through some tough things in our lives, makes for a better day. Attitude is everything. So is it “Woe is me” or “ Oh Happy Day”.
Psalm 118:24. “ This is the day the LORD has made;
We will rejoice and be glad in it.” God Loves You, so do Marty and I. ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼. We are off to see the dentist this morning. “Oh happy day. “

The service at Big Creek Cowboy Church on Sunday, June 7th, 2026, was a significant day for the congregation, marked by a leadership promotion and a moving sermon on the depth of Christian commitment.

Service Highlights & Announcements
Here is a summary of the Big Creek Cowboy Church service from Sunday, June 7th, 2026:

Key Service Events & Announcements
Communion: The service opened with a time of communion and a reading from Luke 22:7-20.

Birthdays: Several church members were recognized for upcoming birthdays, including Terry Thigpin, Mercedes, Julie, and 13-year-old Dawson.

Upcoming Events: Announcements included a ladies' day trip to Galveston on Monday to visit the Bishop's Palace and walk the Strand, a church work day the following Saturday, Father's Day on June 21st, and a potluck lunch immediately after the service.

Prayer Requests: Prayers were requested for Nancy and Teddy following a minor accident, as well as Teddy's ongoing health struggles.

Church Leadership Promotion
Pastor Charlie shared a major church milestone, noting how much the church has grown over his 15 years as pastor. He brought up Senior Elder Terry and Deacon Rick to announce a "godly promotion." Praising Rick for his undivided attention, care, and proactive ideas for the church, Pastor Charlie officially introduced Brother Rick as the church's newest Elder.

Sermon: "Adequate Christians"
Pastor Charlie delivered a message focused on Galatians 2:20, challenging the congregation to examine what it means to be "adequate".

Defining "Adequate": He described an adequate Christian as someone who is "just getting by"—doing just enough to go through the motions, sit in a pew, and be seen, without truly being on fire for God.

A Testimony of Faith: To illustrate moving beyond adequacy, Pastor Charlie shared the history of the church property from 15 years ago. He described walking into a dilapidated pole barn/hay barn with no money, no water, and no walls, but having the faith to trust God's vision. He highlighted how the ladies of the church stepped up to build the walls themselves using saws and nail guns.

Living Spirit-Filled: He concluded by emphasizing that a truly spirit-filled life is marked by purpose, power, and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, urging the congregation to give their everything to serve God.

From Pastor Charlie: Good Morning Church Family and Friends. It’s a great day to be able to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ. Always ready in or out of season. We are so blessed to be His children. I pray I see you all this morning at Church. The message this morning is about “The Adequate Christian“ … who are we in our walk with Christ.
God Loves You so do Marty and I. ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

From Pastor Charlie: Good Morning Church Family and Friends. I pray you have a wonderful day in the Lord. I am praying for all of you who may be ill or going through trials right now. Remember God is always with us in the valleys and the mountain tops. Let’s honor and glorify His Name.
Romans 5:3-5 “And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;
4 and perseverance, character; and character, hope.
5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”
God Loves You, so do Marty and I.❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

From Pastor Charlie: Good Morning Church Family and Friends.
John 14:27.
“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
God knows what’s going on in our lives. He cares about every detail of our lives, and He loves us. Worry steals our peace and joy. I notice when you are not yourselves because of worries. I want to reach out and touch you and heal the pain of worry, but I’m just a mortal man. God is the healer. Lordy, those that know me know I have plenty enough on my plate too. The Bible says not to worry in Matthew 6:27. “ Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his statue.” I remind myself of that daily, and that’s why I give it to Jesus.
Isaiah 43:2-3. “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you.
3 For I am the LORD your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior“
This verse came to mind, He will do the same for us, His children. Trust in Jesus, He knows our hearts and minds. John 14:1
” Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me”
God Loves You, so do Marty and I.❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

From Pastor Charlie: Good Morning Church Family and Friends.
Isaiah 30:21. “Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying,
“This is the way, walk in it,”
Whenever you turn to the right hand
Or whenever you turn to left.”
A promise of restoration and grace. This verse assures us that God will never leave us in our mistakes but will show, teach and lead us in the way we should go.
God Loves You, so do Marty and I. ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

From Pastor Charlie: Good Morning Church Family and Friends.
Matthew 7:24-27. “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:
25 “and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand:
27 “and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.” These verses tells us the more we follow Jesus and heed His Word, the more wisdom and knowledge we will receive from God and from the Holy Scriptures written in the Bible, not from men and women who twist the truth to suit their needs. Test what you hear. There are many false prophets and teachings today. Let the Holy Spirit guard and guide your mind. God Loves You, so do Marty and I. ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
