VBS Celebration

Psalm 145

July 19, 2020 • Tom Sherrod • Psalm 145

Today we celebrate Vacation Bible School!

Our vision as a church is to 'Follow Jesus Together' and part of that is teaching our littlest one's about God and His great love for them. Vacation Bible School has always been a huge part of that effort as we have always opened our doors to the community and welcomed every child to attend all week for free.

This year, COVID-19 forced us to dramatically change our plans as we couldn't safely host VBS for 1,200+ kids and 500+ volunteers. So... we redesigned the program and encouraged families to do a three-day Backyard VBS!

Today we celebrate the success of our volunteer families who adapted to the change of format for VBS and hosted Vacation Bible School in their backyards for their children, relatives and/or neighbors. Thank you!

If we're not helping the next generation to come to know Jesus, then we are hindering the next generation from coming to know Jesus.

The Genealogy

June 7, 2020 • Jay Scott • Matthew 1:1–17

God was in a covenant relationship with both Abraham and David. The genealogy of Jesus reflects that, but following Jesus is a choice. It is a NEW covenant relationship based on faith. Our family of origin often has a lot to do with how we view God and treat others. From the genealogy of Jesus, we learn: - Jesus' family origin is far from perfect. - God placed you in your family of origin for a reason and Jesus can bring peace to that. - Even in the darkest moments or deepest pains, our family or origin can be brought into God's marvelous light.

John the Baptist

June 14, 2020 • Jay Scott • Matthew 3:1–14

Where does Jesus need to become GREATER in your life? Where do you need to become LESS?

The Baptism of Jesus

June 21, 2020 • Jay Scott • Matthew 3:13–17

As John agrees to baptize Jesus, there are two words that we want to look at: baptism and righteousness. Baptism (or Baptizo): to dip or sink Righteousness: Right relationship with God Baptism is about relationship, not religion.
