Morning Fed family!

Today we read two passages from Acts, and Acts 4:29 leapt off the page for me. Peter and John had just endured persecution from the council of Jewish leaders and reported back to their friends about what happened. Their prayer convicted me because their first priority wasn’t to pray that the persecution stopped. Their first priority was to ask the Lord to “look upon their threats and grant your servants to continue to speak your word with all boldness” (v. 29).

For the Christian, comfort is not our first priority. Getting people the good news of Jesus is the first priority. I often find myself praying for ease instead of courage in the midst of difficulty. My challenge to you is the same challenge I’m wrestling with… is the priority in your prayer life to ask the Lord to make life as smooth as possible, or is it prioritized by asking Him for boldness to proclaim His name through hardship?

Good morning, Fed Fam!
Our Scripture reading today is 1 Peter 3:8–22.
This past Sunday, we were reminded by Pastor Malcolm that we are called to not only live for Christ in our deeds, but also in what we say.

1 Peter 3:9 gives us a practical way to live that out in our workplaces and schools:
“Do not repay evil for evil or insult for insult. On the contrary, give a blessing.”

We’re called not to return evil for evil, but to actually speak a blessing to those who do evil to us.
Can you imagine the impact that could have on the people who insult you? Instead of paying them back or responding in anger, what if we chose to bless them?

I’m going to pray and ask God to remind me of this command the next time I feel insulted, so that I can actually walk this out. How about you?

Have a blessed day, Fed Fam!

Happy Monday Federated Family!
In today's reading ( Col.3:1-17)we are reminded that if we want to minister to the world in word and deed, then we must start by doing this: "...set your HEART on things above....set your MIND on things above, NOT on earthly things." The word "set" implies a deliberate and intentional action....something we must DECIDE to act on at the start of each day and THROUGHOUT the day! It is simple yet hard, it is deliberately STOPPING and practicing the words to this song:
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace
Will you deliberately do that RIGHT NOW? Willl you turn your eyes upon Jesus and set your mind on things above...THEN, and only then, will you be prepared to minister to the world around you in WORD and DEED!

In Children’s ministry, August is a month of preparation. We recover from a busy summer of ministry and prep for the upcoming new ministry season!

As I sought God and asked what He wants us to teach the children this fall in our SALT after-school programs, He gave me this verse that is in our reading today of 1 Peter. We will be learning together how to defend our faith in Jesus. So that when people ask us why we believe in the Bible and salvation through Jesus alone, we will be able to answer in a gentle and respectful way!

Would you join me in prayer for SALT ministries at Springfield, Northwestern and Conneaut? We are excited for all that God will do in these groups this year!

If you would like to learn more about SALT or how you can help or support, join us at 12:30 this Sunday in Rooms 8&9 in the Family Center for a short meeting!

Have a wonderful Friday!

Good morning Fed Family!

Over the weekend, 7 of our FED Youth Ministry students had an opportunity to serve with Urban Impact in Pittsburgh!

They helped move and organize spaces for Urban Impact’s trade and performing arts programs, received training on purpose and evangelism, and attended a Sunday service at a church in the area.

This trip was a great reminder that God has a purpose for EVERY person He calls!

Here are just a few highlights from the trip!

Happy Monday Federated Family!
In today's reading (Romans 12), we are reminded in the very first verse how we are to live today and everyday in light of the MERCY we have received from God: offer our bodies as a LIVING sacrifice...as a response of WORSHIP! So let's start the week by SLOWING down, let's meditate on all the MERCY you have and are receiving from God on a daily basis, and then offer up this simple prayer to God ( say it slow and a few times!) : "Father, you have been so GOOD to me and you love me and want what's best for me. So, today I place myself on YOUR altar. Help me live SURRENDERED to YOUR purposes for my life today. Receive my surrendered life as a response of worship...AMEN"

In these familiar verses, Jesus explains that the whole law comes down to this simple but profound explanation. Love the Lord your God with everything, put Him first in everything, your efforts, your work, your thoughts, dreams, plans, affections, desires, devotion…….. and love people as you love yourself, care for them, put their needs first, defend them, love them well.

This is one of those passages we can gloss over and say, I already know this! But when we look closer, we need to pause and dig a little deeper. Take a couple minutes to truly assess our hearts. Let’s ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to us where we need to repent and devote ourselves to our God and to each other.

What true joy we will find in this life when we love our Lord God first, others second and ourselves last! 💛

Happy Wednesday Federated Family!!
Today's passage is one of my favorite stories in scripture for a number of reasons, it is the story of Jesus talking to the woman at the well. As Jesus is doing ministry with His disciples they leave Judea and head for Galilee. Jesus decides to take the shorter route which means going through Samaria, something most Jews would never do because of the disdain for Samaritans. They are tired from the journey so Jesus sits by the well as the disciples go into the town. As He is sitting there a woman comes to draw water and Jesus asks her for a drink. She is even shocked by this as He is a Jew. A Jew would never ask a Samaritan for help, especially a woman who was one of significantly low standing as herself, which is why she was going to the well at that hour. See, she had been married 5 times and currently was living with a different man who she wasn't even married to. As Jesus talks to her, let's her know everything she has even done, He also let's her know He has living water to offer her. He then reveals He is the Messiah. She encounters the one true God and what is her response? It is to go and tell the whole town about the Messiah, and what He has done for her! If we encounter the one true God, this should be our responses as well, go tell all those around us! Who have you told recently about the good news of the gospel of Jesus? Pray today that God will provide you an opportunity to do just that...to share the truth of the gospel! The other aspect of this story I love is that it reminds us that the gospel is for everyone, not just those we see assume are deserving!

Happy Monday Federated Family!
In today's reading from Colossians 1:15-20, we are reminded about the absolute supremacy of Christ....He is the image of the invisible God who created ALL things, is sustaining ALL things, and Christ is the HEAD of the CHURCH! Christ is the foundation of the church....it is His death and resurrection that birthed the church and gives the church a message to take to the world! And, it is Christ who must always be at the CENTER of the church...not programs or personalities but CHRIST! May He always be at the center of the Federated Church and today may He be at the CENTER of our lives....let's walk with Him and talk with Him throughout the day, let's consult Him throughout the day to make sure He stays at the CENTER!
