You have been called…
Last week we celebrated the Resurrection of Jesus. Actually, we celebrate the resurrection every week, every day, every moment of life that God gives us. Each of these can be a reminder of what Jesus did for each one of us. With the death and resurrection of Jesus as our foundation we are now studying His words, His teachings and the truth within them. How they applied to those who originally heard them and how this application is just as useful to us today. His teachings are perfect. They are timeless. If you allow them, they will guide you on a path to become more and more like Him. This is not a transformation but a completely new creation! Through your new life in Jesus He will draw more and more people to Himself! Jesus’ mission to seek and save the lost is now our mission!
It would be a blessing if you were able to join us this week as we continue our journey through the book of Luke.
Please join us as you are.
Sunday at 10:00 a.m. at Berea Christian Church. If you cannot attend in person, then please join us live online. If you join us online, please let us know your there.
