Growing in God’s Grace…Reaching with God’s Love!
MINISTRY TEAM:
“Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able
to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.
Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and
having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes
for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of
peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which
you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take
the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the
word of God.”

NEW MEN’S WEDNESDAY NIGHT BIBLE STUDY
Where is my John Wayne?
Where is my happy ending?
Where is my Marlboro Man?
Where is my lonely ranger?
Where is my prairie song?
Where have all the cowboys gone?
Where is his shiny gun?
Where have all the cowboys gone?
All of these questions were asked by Paula Cole in a 1990s song titled,
Where Have all the Cowboys Gone? With the recent passing of the man
who portrayed the Marlboro man, it seems that there is no hope for Mrs.
Cole. The church in America has found itself asking a similar question:
Where have all the men gone?
The Biblical Man is a 12 week Bible study designed to awaken the
awareness of biblical manhood. This study will provide a portrait of the
man God created. The study specifically focuses on the three main areas
of every man's life: personal, work and family. This study will answer
questions such as, how do I balance work and family, how do I get
along with my boss, how do I get along with my wife, and how do I do
all of these things and honor God at the same time?
Join this new Men’s Study, being taught by Shane Lambert, on
Wednesday nights from 6:45-7:45 p.m. in the board room from
February 12 - April 30. There is no charge for the class. Please
bring your Bible, pen and note paper.
