That ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;

Php 1:10 That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;
Good afternoon fellow readers, what an awesome start to our Bible conference yesterday as we hosted Brother J.D. Grush presenting the "Discoveries of Destiny". I will try and have these posted on our web page within the next day, you can go to www.cbclawrenceburg.org and then go to sermon page to hear what was presented. All of our teens had a good time last night as we had our first "afterglow". We met after the services and played games and had pizza what a good time of fellowship. During this time I had encouraged them to look and see who is missing from the group, after they named a few names I gave them this suggestion...when they are out and about tell them how much we missed them, and what they missed out on when they see these folks. Friends this is the duty of every Christian, not just the Pastor and staff. If you noticed a church family member out, why don't you give them a call, be concerned, not nosey. As the above verse states "that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;" Tell them what they missed and that you missed them, you don't know how much of a difference that may make in their lives. Friends it is a shame when we call on folks to be nosey and busybodies, instead let us be encouraging and sincere in our desires to see folks come and worship God. On another note, I was able to get the teen room cleaned out and ready to get the floor painted so we can finally move in this weekend. What a blessing that will be so that we can expand our ministries at the church. I thank God for every need that has been supplied during this process and we are excited that we will have more room for the teaching and preaching of God's Word! Well we look forward to Gods blessings again this evening as we head into our third message of the series "The Exodus Enigma" for our Bible conference. Please be praying for the services and also for decisions that are being made! I hope and pray you all have a wonderful day!
