Sermon by Pastor Corky Calhoun
For the last 14 years we have chosen a word or phrase to guide us collectively as one body throughout the year. Last year our word was "Prayer" and we established the historic sanctuary as a house of prayer and will carry this weekly community discipline forward in the coming year. Without fail this year's vision is a word that God has put on my heart and reinforced through times of prayer and fasting. The scriptures tell us "where there is no vision the people perish." A lack of vision leads to spiritual wandering and wandering leads to apathy. I feel like the last thing any of us need to be doing is retreating in our walk with God. I am super excited about this year's word for us. It will simultaneously define the relationship we have with Jesus, and measure our obedience to his commands and God's word. We also will be giving out a 2019 devotional guide to all who come Sunday to begin your year. We are especially excited about this year's devotional as it was written and published in house. So, join us Sunday as we begin 2019 by pouring a solid foundation for which we can stand tall for our faith in the coming year. Happy New Year Georgianna.
