16 From now on, therefore, we regard no one from a human point of view; even though we once knew Christ from a human point of view, we know him no longer in that way. 17 So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation. 19 That is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us. 20 So we are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making his appeal through us; we entreat you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

2022 Advent Bible Study Series: Part III
December 15, 2022 • Paul Thibodeaux
We heard you loud and clear about having a Bible study experience here on campus. We decided there was no better time to do it than to celebrate The Coming Attraction of Christmas… Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Join us VIRTUAL & IN-PERSON here on campus for our church-wide Advent Bible study on Thursdays December 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd. That is what Advent is all about. Advent means “arrival” or “coming”. On the Christian calendar Advent is the beginning of the Christian year. It is a season of great expectation and a time not only to look back but to look forward.
When The Something In God Meets The Nothing In Us
December 11, 2022 • Paul Thibodeaux • Luke 1:26–38
God came down to Mary with a message and task ("something") that was humanly impossible and was "nothing" but the spirit of God the began a work in her. It is the same for us when we come in contact with the presence of God, ("something") like never before and there is "nothing" we can do except experience the "something" that God is working in us.
