From Pastor John:A Christian Life: Don’t Take It for Granted!
As Christians, we take a life lived in Christ for granted. We walk in and with the one true Light of the world, guaranteed rescue and comfort, for he has promised that “I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Often, when taking things for granted, we lose our sense of purpose, joy, and Sundays and Christian life become more boring routine tasks. We begin to find reasons why we can’t be at church and justify our motives (I’m not talking about those who have to be away due to health concerns). Weeks pass by, each moment dulling our senses to God’s awesome presence and gifts in our lives and the necessity to be with other believers.

Scripture of the Week
God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it? -Numbers 23:19

9 Questions to Help You Steward All of Your Life for God’s Glory
-Brad Hambrick, Pastor of Counseling and Assistant Professor of Biblical Counseling
If the law of God can be summarized in a positive command, then we consider how to “run to” God rather than merely how to “run from” sin. Life is not primarily about what we avoid, but what we pursue.
As you read through and answer these nine questions, remember God’s patience and timing. There will be some aspects of God’s design that you can engage in immediately. But there will also be ways you want to serve God that will require you to mature more or be equipped before you are prepared to fulfill them. The main thing is to begin to have a vision for life that involves being God’s servant and actively engaging that vision where you are currently equipped.
1. Am I willing to commit my life to whatever God asks of me?
2. What roles have I neglected that God has placed me in?
3. What are my spiritual gifts?
