Passage for week of May 30 – Apr 6, 2012

Posted on May 2, 2012 by

Philippians 3:10-11   (NASB)

10 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and  the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death; 11 in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

Points to Ponder:

1. The word “know” means more than just intellectual knowledge. It means something you have experienced and have first-hand knowledge of. It is like your first kiss. It is one thing to talk about it. It is entirely different to experience it! Is your knowledge of Jesus Christ intellectual or experiential? Continue reading →

TeamKid – May 2012

Posted on May 2, 2012 by

TeamKid Wed. nights at HSBC 6:30 pm

1Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. 2Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Psalm 100:1-2

I am often reminded of these verses when I am working with the children on Wednesday nights. I am always so blessed with how full of energy and joyful hearts the children have from the moment they walk in the door to the moment they leave. During the last few months we have focused our assembly time together before and after our classes to focus on missions and to always remember that we have to continue to love one another outside of the church walls.

From the Associate Pastor

Paul writes to the church at Colossae

May 2012

When Paul writes to the church at Colossae he says “For He (God the Father) rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins… and He (Jesus) is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He himself will come to have first place in everything.” (Colossians 1:13 & 18)

Paul makes two statements about His (Jesus’) Lordship that should determine the focus of my life.  First, it’s clear that we are adopted into God’s kingdom through Christ’s sacrifice on our behalf. And second, it’s clear that “He is the beginning” and “He Himself will come to have first place in everything, “which means He is also my end goal (emphases added). So, He’s the one who purchased my life through His blood & He’s the one who’s the point of my life through His being! Continue reading →

Heart to Heart with Pastor Ed

Posted on May 2, 2012 by

May 2012

There has been a good bit of discussion among North Carolinians concerning this proposed Marriage Amendment that will appear of the primary ballot this May 8. What you see below is the amendment and a resolution that was approved by our Deacon Committee.

Pastor Brandon and I were invited to a gathering at West Asheville Baptist Church where Mark Harris, President of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, introduced us to this amendment. I can tell you that the origin of the amendment was based on the scripture and a conservative view of morality. Continue reading →
