Church New Year Letter – Know the Plans Theme

Greetings in Christ,

I don't know about you, but I'm excited about the New Year!

The Bible says in Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Now, I realize, of course, the context of this Scripture applies to the Nation of Israel, yet I do believe that we serve a God who is “the same yesterday, today and forever.”

As we look ahead into the year 2020, there's not a person among us who can be sure of what the future holds. For that matter, there's not a person among us who can even say for sure that God will give them another breath to breathe!

Mark 1:1-8 (NKJV) 1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. 2 As it is written in the Prophets: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.” 3 “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight.' ” 4 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

Pastor’s Christmas Letter – Prepare the Way Theme

Pastor's Christmas Letter for (YEAR)

Christmas Greetings!

As the Christmas Season is upon us once again, I've been thinking about the incredible opportunity we have as Christians.

The Bible tells us the story of John the Baptist, whose primary purpose of ministry was to be the one who would prepare the way for the Messiah. This was so the Messiah would have an entry point into the lives of the people. Yet, before He could come into the hearts of the people, an important thing needed to take place in their hearts, and it's called “repentance.”

A Thankful Spirit – Thanksgiving Letter

Thanksgiving Greetings!

It seems so appropriate that before we get to “the most wonderful time of the year”, that we take a few moments to express our thanks to God.

For many people Thanksgiving is a day to eat too much and watch football for the entire day. Yet, we as Christians know it goes far deeper than that, even though we may enjoy those things as well.

It's important that we have a thankful spirit!

John Henry Jowett, a British preacher of an earlier generation, said this about gratitude: “Gratitude is a vaccine, an antitoxin, and an antiseptic.” What did he mean? He meant that gratitude, like a vaccine, can prevent the invasion of a disgruntled, discouraged spirit. Like an antitoxin, gratitude can prevent the effects of the poisons of cynicism, criticalness, and grumbling. Like an antiseptic, a spirit of gratitude can soothe and heal the most troubled spirit.

There are a few things I wanted to share about the importance of having a thankful spirit so please take a few moments to read them.
