Can't wait for the Lord's Day! This Sunday, Pastor Brooks is doing triple duty AGAIN: Pray God will give him strength! 10am Bible study; Sunday 11am & 6pm; He gives his all, he is VERY busy; it isn't easy; it takes A LOT of time in study, preparation, to make sure he is ready, to preach the Word, but God is with him; hard work pays off! He is touching hearts/lives; it would really encourage him to have YOU come; it will be a very special time; more so IF you come! Let's set a record; have our best group yet! Invite family/friends; the journey WITH God is an amazing 1; you can't change the past, but you can make sure, from this point on, God will be 1st! Make this year the BEST ever! It can be; it will be, if you include God! start attending church; EVERY Sunday & Wednesday/EVERY service/EVERY time the church doors are open, even Prayer meeting; make a pledge with God that you will be in church! NOTHING will keep you from coming! The exciting, Christian life starts/ continues THIS Sunday!  Many excuses are given to miss church; let's make this Sun am & PM “NO EXCUSE SUNDAY”! If you come, God will work mightily in your heart!

 

SUNDAY AT 10 AM BIBLE STUDY HOUR Pastor Brooks Goodhart - Ephesians 5:19-20 Being filled with the Spirit affects 3 specific areas: Worship, Praise, and Thanksgiving The Spirit-filled Christian is a singing Christian. Spiritual joy will shine through song. Speaking includes any sound offered to God from a Spirit-filled heart. Psalms refers primarily to Old Testament psalms set to music. Hymns refer to songs of praise. Spititual songs were songs of testimony. Singing means to sing with the voice. Making melody refers to instrumental music; music that honors the Lord and blesses His people. Thanksgiving – God's people are more prone to ask than to thank. We are to be thankful always (God controls every detail of our lives); for all things (humbly) in the Name of Jesus Christ (for who He is and what He has done). If we have experienced the grace of God, then we ought to be grateful to God. If we would think more, we would thank more!

 

SUNDAY AT 11 AM MORNING WORSHIP HOUR Pastor Brooks Goodhart - “Following Jesus” - Luke 9:57-62 Following Jesus must be the most important thing in our lives. Following Jesus involves 3 things: Obedience (“Follow Me” is a command), Repentance (turning from sin to salvation), Commitment (a lifelong commitment). When Jesus told His disciples to follow Him, they forsook all and followed Jesus. Forsake means to drop what is in your hands, walk away, and leave it behind. In this passage we see 3 people who were weak in their commitment to follow Jesus. We must be willing to follow Jesus: wherever He sends us v57-58; whenever He calls us v59-60; and forever v61-62.

 

Pastor Don Goodhart will pray; Joe Melchiore and Steve Squillace will read Scripture

NURSERY (Coordinator: Cindy Evans) meets during the MORNING SERVICE at 11am, and at 6pm for the EVENING SERVICE

EVERYONE IS WELCOME! PLEASE COME; INVITE SOMEONE TO COME WITH YOU!

 

SUNDAY EVENING AT 6 PM EVENING GOSPEL HOUR - Pastor Brooks Goodhart “The Law of Kindness” - 1 Peter 2:18-25 Sermon Notes: Peter encourages those who are suffering unjustly by presenting 3 pictures of Jesus Christ: He is our Example in His life v21-23; our Substitution in His death v24; and our Watchful Shepherd in Heaven v25. Jesus is the examole/pattern on which believers grace their lives. As we live godly lives and submit in times of suffering, we are following Christ's example and becoming more like Him. We submit for our own sake, that we might grow spiritually and become more like Him. The unsaved are watching us, but the Shepherd in heaven is watching over us, so we have nothing to fear.

 

Wednesday - 7:00 p.m. BIBLE STUDY AND THE POWER HOURS led by Pastor Brooks Goodhart Never underestimate the power of a praying church! Satan's concern is to keep Christians from praying; he trembles when we pray! It is a powerful nite! God is working mightily! Please make time on Wed nites to come; you will be touched! It will be an uplifting, life-changing exp! There is POWER thru PRAYER!

Prayer power is truly the greatest power in the world!..Charles Spurgeon

20-25 attend/PTL!

 

Bob Shryock wrote: “Faith Bible Church is a unique church. It has great history, great charm, great beauty, great people, and great pastors! What is inside is what counts! Faith Bible Church is unique because of the pastors and their families that share the same last name – “Goodhart”. And if ever a church family was ideally named, it’s the Goodharts! Twins Brooks and Brad have a lawn service in civilian life, but commitment to their church is everything to them! Faith Bible Church is much more than a place to worship! It’s one of those small churches that needs you to participate and give faithfully to survive.” Bob Shryock said it very well!
