Thursday December 10th

I enjoyed my men's Bible study on prayer and the Sr. Bible study on 3 John this morning.

Sermon preparation will be central to my thinking today. One element that I hope to expound on is the idea of being "filled with joy." The Ethiopian Eunuch in Acts 8 is joyful upon hearing the Gospel and eager to be obedient in baptism. Herein lies a teachable moment for us. We should celebrate salvation in both our regeneration and that of others. Additionally, it teaches us that holy joy spawns obedience.

We need a greater vision of how God can use us for His Glory.

The subject of adultery is prominent in the news and people are talking about it in the marketplace. There is a great opportunity for us to proclaim the blessings of faithful Christian marriage.

May the God of all comfort guard your hearts in Christ Jesus.
