I DO BELIEVE THAT WE NEED TO READ MORE-TO LEARN MORE-TO THINK MORE. ARE WE TAKING CARE OF OUR MINDS? THEY ARE IMPORTANT. I CHALLENGE YOU TODAY TO START A BOOK WORTH READING, AND READ IT. I CHALLENGE YOU TO READ AT LEAST A CHAPTER A DAY OR MORE IN A BIBLE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND- LIKE THE NEW LIVING TRANSLATION.
DO IT- IT MAY JUST MAKE YOU A BETTER PERSON.

We are blessed with some great VBS workers- who love Jesus and Kids.
Have a wonderful day-Pastor Joe

I love Bible school. it is a time of sharing with the children-they have fun and learn about jesus and the Bible-some might get saved. We are having about 60 each night- with a good spirit by all. Tonight at 7 the adults will come for a time of special Bible study for them-I am very excited about it.
Hope and pray that all goes well for us today-Pastor Joe

60 CAME LAST NIGHT- 60 PRECIOUS KIDS AND WORKERS. SUCH A SPIRIT OF LOVE, FUN, AND SERIOUSNESS. I AM SO PROUD OF ALL INVOLVED, AND THOSE WHO GIVE IN THE OFFERING TO MAKE IT POSSIBLE. PRECIOUS SOULS- PRECIOUS SEEDS BEING PLANTED- GREAT EXAMPLES OF CHRISTIANITY BEING LIVED OUT RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE KIDS AND FELLOW CO-WORKERS.
GOD BLESS OUR BIBLE SCHOOL- AND SAVE ETERNAL SOULS THIS WEEK, AND BLESS THESE PRECIOUS BLOG READERS ALSO-PASTOR JOE

YESTERDAY WAS A VERY SPECIAL DAY TO ME FOR I HAD GREAT FREEDOM PREACHING THE WORD FROM MARK 2:1-13 ON BECOMING MORE LIKE JESUS. I USED A PROJECTOR AND POWER POINT TO SHOW THE SCRIPTURE AND POINTS, AND IT FLOWED WELL-PRAISE THE LORD. GOD CAN USE NEW THINGS FOR HIS GLORY. I AM GLAD NOT TO BE STUCK IN THE 50'S.

LET'S GET READY FOR FATHER'S DAY-PASTOR JOE

DO WE WANT TO LEARN OR JUST BE ENTERTAINED? PROVERBS 1:1-2 TRYS TO MAKE US THINK-LET'S DO FOR A MINUTE IF WE CAN STAND IT.
The Purpose of Proverbs

1 These are the proverbs of Solomon, David's son, king of Israel.

2 The purpose of these proverbs is to teach people wisdom and discipline, and to help them understand wise sayings.
1. DO WE WANT TO BE TAUGHT? A VERY BIG QUESTION.
2. DO WE WANT TO BE TRAINED? TO KNOW AND DO THINGS GOD'S WAY?
3. DO WE WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS WISE AND BEST?
THINK, YES,THINK ABOUT THESE THINGS AND I WILL HAVE MORE TO SAY LATER-PASTOR JOE-GO TO A GOOD CHURCH SUNDAY..TRY IT YOU MAY LIKE IT. LIKE IT OR NOT-YOU NEED IT....

THE WORLD IS FULL OF HURTING PEOPLE-PHYSICALLY,MENTALLY,AND SPIRITUALLY. WHAT WE NEED IS FOR PEOPLE TO TURN TO THE LORD FOR HE CARES-HE CAN HELP, AND HE DOES HELP NO MATTER WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THINK ABOUT IT.
LET ME SHARE A PASSAGE FOR US TO THINK ABOUT TODAY-Chapter 1

The Purpose of Proverbs

1 These are the proverbs of Solomon, David's son, king of Israel.

2 The purpose of these proverbs is to teach people wisdom and discipline, and to help them understand wise sayings. 3 Through these proverbs, people will receive instruction in discipline, good conduct, and doing what is right, just, and fair. 4 These proverbs will make the simpleminded clever. They will give knowledge and purpose to young people. NLT

READ THIS OVER SEVERAL-SEND ME YOUR THOUGHTS IF YOU SO CHOOSE, AND HAVE A GOD BLESSED DAY-PASTOR JOE

I LOVE IT-ONE OF MY FAVORITE 7 DAYS OF THE WEEK. STUDY TIME UNTIL LUNCH-LUNCH WITH MY BROTHER- 2 HOSPITAL VISITS-SUPPER, AND THEN BIBLE STUDY FROM ISAIAH 65-LOOK AT THIS EXCITING PASSAGE:
Isaiah 65:17-25 (KJV)
For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. [18] But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. [19] And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. [20] There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed. [21] And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. [22] They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. [23] They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them. [24] And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. [25] The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.
