Dear Church Family,
There is a lot of confusion today about what to think, who to believe. Yet as Christians we believe that the Bible reveals to us the solid truth that we can build our lives on. At the core of this truth is Jesus—the fulfillment of all God’s promises. Through faith in Jesus as our Savior, our hearts declare our “Amen” to God.
The Apostles’ Creed summarizes the many promises God has made to us. It’s appropriate we conclude with our “Amen.” And then we need to be still and trust God. In the end, no matter what’s going on in the world around us, we have confidence in God’s ultimate promises because of Jesus Christ.
Join me for worship this weekend as we reach the grand finale of our series I Believe whether in-person or online Saturday at 5:00 pm or Sunday morning at 9:30 am. I’m so looking forward to rejoining all of you and sharing what I believe will be a very fitting and inspiring end to our study of The Apostles’ Creed. Say “amen”! And then? Be still.
