Happy Sunday, see everyone at 11am!

Message from Bro. Strawn:

This week's passage from Matthew 5 focuses on two more of Jesus' "But I say to you..." amplifications of the traditional teachings of the Rabbis. Read Matthew 5:31-37 to prepare for the Bible study in worship. As this is a 5th Sunday, it is our normal practice to celebrate the Lord's Supper at the close of worship. I would encourage you to "examine yourself" as Paul urged the believers in Corinth to prepare for this special worship experience.

Looking forward to seeing you with a smile on your face and your Bible in your hand.

Blessings,
Bro. David Strawn

It’s fourth Sunday! See everyone at 11am for a sermon by Bro. Strawn and great food and fellowship after church.

Message from Bro. Strawn:

Well, unless my calendar is really messed up, this appears to be the fourth Sunday in August which means, of course, it's the fourth session in my sermon series on Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. We will begin looking at Jesus' unique take on the commandments. Rather than setting them aside, He brings even more detailed and intensive application to them. Take a look at Matthew 5:21-30 before we gather to get a head start.

Oh yes, there's something else happening - covered dish lunch!! YUM! Plan to spend some time of fellowship with us after morning worship in the Fellowship Hall.

Looking forward to seeing you with your Bible in your hand and a smile on your face.

Blessings,
Bro. David Strawn

Services begin at 11:00 AM, with the sermon being brought by Bro. Strawn.

We look forward to worshiping with you!

Message from Bro. Strawn:

Last week we began our examination of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. We will continue that walk by exploring the second quad of "blessings" found in Matthew 5:7-12. Take a few minutes and see the kinds of blessings that Jesus described for his followers.

I hope to have some friends I invited this week visiting us this Sunday. Have you invited anyone to be with us in worship? It's not too late.

See you on Sunday morning with a smile on your face and your Bible in your hand.

Blessings,

Bro. David Strawn

See everyone at 11am for sermon and fellowship.

Message from Bro. Strawn:

I know that it has been hot outside, and likely will be on Sunday. The good news is that, last time I checked, the air conditioning in the church building was working fine. I'm pretty sure that when you come into the building on Sunday morning it will be nice and cool, so I hope you are planing to be present.

We wrapped up our look at the Psalms of Ascent last week and this week we are beginning an examination of one of the most famous passages in all the Bible. As a hint, we'll begin in Matthew 5. In fact if you read the first six verses you will have a head start on everyone else.

I'm looking forward to seeing you with a smile on your face and your Bible in your had (in our cool church building) Blessings,

Bro. David Strawn

Sorry to be late sending this, but Kathy and I were with our daughter yesterday and didn't get home until late.

Today we will wrap our walk through the Psalms of Ascent with Psalm 134. "Bless the LORD." Also, remember this is 4th Sunday LOTS of yummy covered-dishes for lunch today. Looking forward to seeing you all with your Bible in your hands and smiles on your faces.

Message from Bro. Strawn:

It seems that the rain has been turned off and the heat has been turned up. Sounds like a good time to gather with your brothers and sisters in Christ. Right? Sunday morning we will be enjoying each others' company, singing praises to God, and hearing His word proclaimed. All in an air-conditioned room! It just doesn't get much better than that. (Covered-dish lunch next week 🙂)

This week's passage, one of the last Psalms of Ascent, is Psalm 133. Take a few minutes and read it, then read it again, then read it again. Let God speak to your heart through this ancient brief praise song.

Looking forward to seeing you with a smile on you face and your Bible in your hand.

Bro. David Strawn

Hope everyone enjoyed celebrating 250 years of America.

Join us at 11am for the sermon and fellowship.

Message from Bro. Strawn:

Happy 250th Birthday - USA!

This Sunday morning we are taking a brief break in our walk through the Psalms of Ascent for a special service focusing on freedom. Our focal passage will be from John 8:31-36 where Jesus promises freedom to His followers. Take a moment and read those verses before we gather for worship and let God speak to you about His freedom.

Looking forward to seeing you with a smile on your face and your Bible in your hand.

Join us at 11am for worship and fellowship.

Message from Bro. Strawn:

Well, we haven't had to deal with flooding rains this week although the temps have climbed up to Summer time highs. I'm fairly confident that we will have cool temps in the worship center AND fellowship hall at Martins Prairie Sunday, so the weather ought not prevent your participation.

During our worship hour, we will unpack our next Psalm of Ascent, Psalm 130. One of the lament Psalms. I hope you will take a few moments to read through it a time or two before we gather. Also remember this is a 4th Sunday so you know what that means - yummy home cooking for lunch in the Fellowship Hall immediately after the worship hour.

I'm looking forward to seeing you with a smile on your face and your Bible in your hand.

Blessings,
Bro. David Strawn
