ThankFULL for Life

November 20, 2022 • Pastor Joe Meyer • Colossians 3:12–17, Psalm 107:1–9

Today we give thanks for being filled with the life of Jesus. I have said often that Jesus is the meaning of life and the meaning of life is Jesus. We were created to be in a relationship with the one who created us as Psalm 107 reminds us, “He satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.” We have been filled with the good things of God but the greatest thing that we have been given by God is life itself. The life we now live and the eternal life that Jesus won for us.

ThankFULL for the Word

November 13, 2022 • Pastor Tim Phillips • 1 Thessalonians 2:11–13, Nehemiah 8:1–3, Nehemiah 8:5–6, Nehemiah 8:8–11

Today we give thanks for being filled with the Word of God. In the book of Nehemiah the Israelites have rediscovered the Word of God and we see the thankfulness that flows out of them for being able to hear it again. We see that as we hear the Word of God, read the Word of God, sing the Word of God, get taught the Word of God, share the Word of God and ultimately live a life abiding in the Word of God that this will lead to a life of thankfulness and gratitude. Paul instructs us to let the Word of Christ dwell in us richly and see the incredible blessing that the Word of God is in our lives.
