Sycamore Grove Mennonite Church, grateful and humbled are the words that come to mind as I share that I have been affirmed as your full-time pastor.

As I have been reflecting on this moment, I am convinced it was no accident that the Sunday prior I stood before this congregation and preached Acts chapter 20.

In that chapter, Paul gathers the elders of Ephesus and pours out his heart. He reminds them how he served with humility and tears. He didn't preach a watered-down message to make people comfortable. He declared the whole counsel of God, the difficult things and the beautiful things, all of it. He kept nothing back that would be helpful to them. He went house to house. He wept over people. He warned them. He loved them.

Acts 20:24 says "I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me, the task of testifying to the good news of God's grace."

That is my goal. That is the standard I am holding myself to. Not a perfect pastor, but a faithful one who declares the whole counsel of God, holds nothing back, and gives everything he has to testifying to the grace of Jesus Christ.

Sycamore Grove, I am so honored to be your pastor, and I am beyond excited to see what God does next.

Last night, I had the privilege of attending our Fifth Sunday Hymn Sing, and what a blessing it was. The room was filled with voices lifted in worship to our precious Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Now, I realize that hymns may not be everyone's favorite style of music, and that's okay. But there is something beautiful about God's people gathering together and offering praise to the One who is worthy. I am telling you, the sound of believers worshiping Jesus is a sweet sound.

The psalmist declared, "It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High" (Psalm 92:1).

Thank you to everyone who came and participated. Nights like these remind me that one day we'll join a heavenly choir from every tribe, tongue, and nation, singing the praises of our King forever.

If you weren’t able to make it this time, we would love to have you at the next Fifth Sunday Hymn Sing, August 30th.

Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22–23

Aren’t you grateful that we serve a God whose mercy never runs dry? You may have come to the end of your strength, but you have not come to the end of His. His compassions do not fail, and they never will.

When you lay your head down at night, His mercy is still there. And when you rise in the morning, there it is again. Not because we deserve it, but because He is faithful.

Great is His faithfulness.

This past weekend we celebrated Easter, a risen King, the empty tomb, and the victory of Jesus Christ over sin and death.

But I want to remind you that what was true on Easter is still true today. The grave is still empty!

He is not here, for He is risen, just as he said. Matthew 28:6

And because Jesus is alive, hope is not something we look back on, it is something we live in right now.
