How We Help Each Other Grow


Listening to sermons that tell us what we should be doing - without telling us how to do it have always left me wanting for more. If that's you then you're in luck this Sunday. During our 40 Days of Community we have been reminded that we are better together, we really do need each other, reaching in helps us reach out, and we want to be relationship builders; this week it's how we help each other grow.

Growth is a beautiful thing. I am amazed at how the pumpkin patch is growing with all of this rain! As rain helps vines grow, we help each other grow. God is calling us to growth and maturity. As we grow spiritually more people experience the good news of the gospel.

It's exciting each week to see the stats on the live broadcast. We had 14 computers logged on Sunday, and some had more than one person watching! I'll share two exciting things I heard this week. One is that Joel and Charles got up early (7am Pacific Time) to worship with us. They so enjoyed it. Then Chris (Charles) told me his mom and dad watched it and they loved it. So praise be to God, we are reaching out beyond our walls with our worship.

Remember, this is a 5th Sunday so we'll be having one blended service (Choir and Praise Team) at 10:00 followed by a pot-luck dinner. Bring whatever you can and let's break bread together and practice helping each other to grow...spiritually that is!
