When God’s people have something to celebrate
When they are crushed beneath the weight of sorrow
When they are struggling up the dark backside of a question-mark
When they are burdened with guilt or shame
When they are too weary to take another step
When they feel unloved or lonely…there is a place
Where believers celebrate together
Where the body of Christ shares the weight of sorrow
Where questions are considered in the bright light of God’s truth
Where burdens of guilt and shame are lifted
Where weak and weary ones are strengthened for another week
Where those who feel lonely and unloved find fellowshipJesus called that place the Church and he gave his life for her
the assembly of the saints
the bride of Christ
the body of Christ
the gathering of God’s people where He delights to manifest his glory.Join us Sunday.
Come hungry for God.

I’m closing out a couple sweet days of ministry in Texas this evening. The Duggar Family was here, Tom Harmon, Rick Grubbs and Don Richardson.
The sun is setting. The trees are in full green leaf and the Wood Thrush is ringing evening vespers. A train whistle blows in the distance. It is balmy, cool. Gentle air stirs the breeze. The Dogwoods here have already flowered.
I made some new friends like Dave Stelzl and renewed fellowship with some dear friends. We left some of them tonight with joyful, grateful tears in our eyes.
Ken, Penny and Kimberly Krause were here. We shared a meal. “There is no pleasure on earth so great as a circle of Christian friends by the fire,” said Jack Lewis, and about that he was right.
