GROWING IN CHRIST TO GROW OTHERS!

Mar 5, 2023    Mike Burt

“If you don't see the greatness of God then all the things that money can buy become very exciting. If you can't see the sun you will be impressed with a street light. If you've never felt thunder and lightning you'll be impressed with fireworks. And if you turn your back on the greatness and majesty of God you'll fall in love with a world of shadows and short-lived pleasures.” John Piper

I am back! (Lord willing) and done with a brief bout of Covid – thanks Denis and Grace for being patient and understanding. 

Sunday I will share one of the most important messages in 1 John – are we growing? Our Grace motto is Growing in Christ to Grow Others – but are we? Sunday I will give the elements of maturity from 1 John and even a short quiz – not a pop quiz – I am telling you its coming! It will not be hard but the challenges will be. As Piper says above we must not ‘fall in love with a world of shadows’ – join me Sunday as we will walk together through the writings of John to ‘fathers’, ‘children’, ‘young men’ both past and present. We will hear the warnings from John about the emptiness of the World and the deceptions of the antichrists. Then the quiz – but don’t be scared – the answers are all in the Scriptures – just come and listen – you will do fine!

See you Sunday,

Pastor Mike
