Midweek refocus from Pastor Justin:
You were not made for just survival. You were not made to simply get through the week. You were made for glory.

Not your glory, but His. And that changes everything. Because a God who creates you for His glory has staked His own name on your life. He is not indifferent to you. He cannot be. You are His workmanship, His declaration, His beloved. And when sin shattered that glory ... He didn’t walk away. No. He sent His Son to bear the full weight of your brokenness so that what was marred could be remade. What was lost could be restored. What was dead could live.

This is the gospel: the God who formed you also redeems you. The God who called your name in creation calls your name again at the cross. You were not an afterthought. You were not a mistake. You were made ... on purpose, for glory, by a Father who loves you enough to bleed for you. Walk in that today.

Happy Friday church family! Looking forward to worshipping together this Sunday🙌

Midweek refocus from Pastor Justin:
The Samaritan didn’t just feel something... he crossed the road. That’s what real compassion does. It moves. It moves to action. Jesus, the true Good Samaritan, crossed every divide to reach us. While we were broken on the side of the road, He came to where we were. He didn’t pass by. He paid the price. Why? Because we have been shown that kind of mercy and now, we can show it to others as well. Compassion isn’t just a feeling... it is the gospel made visible.

Ask the Lord today, “Who are you putting in my path today?” Ask and pray that God will give you eyes to see and a heart that moves.

Midweek refocus from Pastor Justin:
Notice the word, “while.” Not after you cleaned up. Not once you figured it out. Not when you finally got it together. While. While ... you were still a mess. While ... you were still far off. While ... you were still, in Paul’s own word, an enemy. That is when Christ moved toward you. That is when the welcome was extended. That is when the price was paid.
You did not earn your way to God’s table. You were carried there ... at the cost of everything ... by a Savior who refused to wait for you to deserve it.

And here is what that means for the way you live today: You are fully accepted. Not on probation. Not conditionally. Fully, finally, permanently welcomed ... because Jesus took the rejection that was yours and gave you the belonging that was His.

That is the gospel. And that gospel is the only thing powerful enough to make us the kind of people who welcome others the way we have been welcomed. You were the stranger. Christ made you family.

Midweek refocus from Pastor Justin:
Notice what Jesus did not say. He did not say He came to “wait” for the lost. He did not say He came to “welcome” the lost ... as if He simply opened a door and hoped someone would walk through. He said He came to “seek.”

Seeking is active. Seeking is costly. Seeking means you leave the comfortable place and go into the uncomfortable one. It means you cross the street, enter the conversation, sit at the table with the wrong kind of people in the wrong kind of places. This is what Jesus did. And it cost Him everything.

He sought us when we were not looking for Him. He pursued us when we were running from Him. He came all the way down ... from the glory of heaven into the mess of this world ... and He did not stop until He found us. At a cross. At full cost. With arms wide open.

That is the gospel. We were lost, and He came seeking. So here is the question that should convict us: Who around you is still lost ... and are you seeking them?

Not waiting for them to find their way to church. Not hoping they figure it out. Seeking. Knowing their name. Entering their life. Praying for them by name. Being the presence of Jesus in their everyday world. You were the one He left everything to find. Now go after yours.

Midweek refocus from Pastor Justin:
Jesus had everything. All the glory of heaven. The worship of angels. The fullness of joy in the presence of the Father. He lacked nothing, needed nothing, owed nothing.
And He gave it all up. For you and for me.

He didn’t give from His surplus. He gave from His substance. He stepped out of heaven and into a barn. He traded a throne for a cross. He became poor ... completely, utterly poor ... so that we could become rich in the only ways that last forever: forgiven, adopted, loved, and held.

This is the gospel. And this is the reason Christians give. Not out of guilt. Not out of obligation. But because we have been so lavishly given to... that generosity becomes the most natural response in the world.

We don’t give to earn His favor. We already have it ... fully, freely, forever ... in Christ. We give because we finally understand what it cost Him to give to us.

In light of God’s generosity towards us, what would it look like today to hold something loosely that you’ve been gripping tightly ... your time, your money, your comfort ... in response to what Christ has freely given you?

Midweek refocus from Pastor Justin:
Paul wrote these words from prison. Not from a stage, not from a season of comfort ... but from a cell. And yet he called the church to fix their minds on what is excellent and praiseworthy. That tells us something important: excellence isn’t a luxury for easy times. It’s a posture of the heart that says, God is worth my best, in every season.

When we pursue what is true, good, and beautiful, we reflect the character of the God who made us. Excellence in worship, in work, in parenting, in service ... it all flows from minds and hearts anchored in Him.

So this week, let us bring our best to whatever God has placed in our hands. Not for applause. Not for recognition. For an audience of One ... who sees, who delights, and who is worthy of every ounce of effort we have to offer.

FUKUOKA MISSIONS UPDATE: Wintersburg is sending a short-term missions team to Fukuoka, Japan this summer under the leadership of missionaries Samuel Kan and his wife Airi Suzuki. Our team will support their Utmost Ministry’s Kids Gospel Camp ministry in reaching unchurched children ages 4–16 by preparing VBS-style programming and English lessons. We may also be asked to serve in other ways at the request, with specific roles discerned as the team prepares in the time leading up to the trip. 

Japan remains one of the least-reached nations, and this trip is an opportunity to serve faithfully, learn cross-culturally, and participate in what God is already doing through local ministry partners.

🇯🇵 Become a sender by praying for this team and financially supporting their efforts! If you want to give on church center, you can select to support the Fukuoka missions team in the drop down menu 🇯🇵
