One of our big goals as a church family for 2019 is to take a step

forward in Sharing Jesus. This is a challenge for us as a church to

increase our intention and skill level in reflecting Jesus. And it is

also a personal challenge to each of us to grow in our calling as

witnesses. So we’ll take a few weeks and talk through several ideas that

can help us. There is no more directly eternal purpose to our everyday

existence than telling people who don’t know Jesus how they can know

Him. Of course, the Enemy would love for us to hide our light, but Jesus

told us to put it on a hill. Let’s get better at Sharing Jesus

together!

If you’re a "Hoper", we need you here this day. We’re going to talk

about some of the things that are ahead for us as a church, and some of

the practical steps you can take to make us more effective in our work

for Jesus. Gathering together to talk through all of these issues is one

way that God gives us to coordinate our efforts and focus on the things

that matter right now for our church. Even if you’re away, we’d ask

that you tune in to see and hear what we’re talking about so that each

of us can do our part, just like Paul says in Ephesians 4:16

when he compares us to a body that needs every part doing what it was

made to do in order to function. Let’s set our minds on our calling and

ask the Lord to use this discussion in our church for His kingdom!
