READING THROUGH THE BIBLE IN A YEAR
"Holy Scriptures are more than selected Bible passages ... It is God's revealed Word for all peoples, for all times. The Holy Scriptures do not consist of individual sayings, but are a whole and can be used most effectively as such. The Scriptures are God's revealed Word as a whole... 
"The full witness to Jesus Christ the Lord can be clearly heard only in its immeasurable inner relationships, in the connection of Old and New Testaments, of promise and fulfillment, sacrifice and law, Law and Gospel, cross and resurrection, faith and obedience, having and hoping. That is why daily worship together must include a longer Old and New Testament lesson besides the prayer of the Psalms." ~Dietrich Bonhoeffer, 'Life Together'

  • TO CELEBRATE THE 500th ANNIVERSARY OF THE REFORMATION Make a New Year's Resolution to read through the Bible in a Year! There are Reading Schedules available in the church lobby on the counter, or scroll down or search this website for resources, or look for them on our Facebook page.
  • GROW IN FAITH & YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. Three great ways for God to get His Word into your mind, heart & spirit is Word, Prayer & Fellowship. Commit to reading the Bible everyday (even if you don't get through the entire thing in a year), Commit to daily prayer. If you'd like to join our prayer chain, let Linda in the office know. Commit to coming to church weekly (even if you miss a Sunday once in a while). Commit to these three things in 2017 and see how God works in and through your life!
[Oh, the joys of those who...] delight in doing everything God wants them to, and day and night are always meditating on his laws and thinking about ways to follow him more closely. They are like trees along a riverbank bearing luscious fruit each season without fail. Their leaves shall never wither, and all they do shall prosper. ~PSALM 1:2-3
