Notes from Chuck
Hi Everybody,
I hope you are seeking to live in the Dance of the Eternal One today. As we dove into the sweet depths of Mark 1:9-13 this past Sunday, we saw the wonder of the Dance. God in His holiness, justice, mercy, and grace has moved toward us by going to the cross in the person of Jesus in our place for our sins; we move toward Him in response with faith and repentance. Then He moves toward us as He applies all the work of His wondrous grace toward us, and we move toward Him in continual worship. Are you living in the dance today or just trying to be a good Christian? Stop right now and just tell Him how much you desire to delight in Him alone.
Anywho, we have 41 guys signed up for our Men’s Advance! If you signed up, you should be getting an e-mail from me next week with some final details and instructions for the weekend. Very excited to hang with you, men, as we build strong relationships and take the next steps spiritually.
We continually want to create environments to encourage and equip people in biblical relationships where they can apply and embody the gospel. One environment to do this will be the Singles’ Lunch on Sunday, February 28. Mat Yelvington, our available leader of Teen Ministry, is inviting all Crossbridge singles to Berryhill (13703 Southwest Freeway, Sugar Land, TX) at 1:00 p.m. I recommend the #9 fish tacos with 1 chimichanga and black beans. Try that, and with every bite remember God loves me!
Continue to be praying for our people during this financial hard time. I met with a man this morning who was telling me of the financial pressure he is under. Seems like this is hitting us all right now, so let us pray to our great, glorious, good, and gracious God; ask Him to help us and to live like He is control.
I’m praying for you, Crossbridge. May God renew us in our love for Him and others so that He might be glorified and we might be satisfied.
See-ya Sunday as we continue our series, “Mark’s Gospel: Discovering the Real Jesus.”
Chuck
