Hello Friends and Family! Welcome to our summer series that is focused on helping us understand and apply the idea of faith in God to our lives. We’re so thrilled you came. Our prayer is that each one of us will hear and encounter God in a clear and personal way while we’re together.“The Arena: Inspiring a Generation of Champions” is about what can happen as we move beyond our fears and give our all to the race God has set before us. It’s about the encouragement we can get from others who are living by faith. It’s also about the encouragement we can get from studying God’s Hall of Faith from Hebrews 11. These men and women inspire us to be all we can as we walk with God.Today Kim Thompson will give us a look into the life of Moses. You may not be aware of this, but Moses gave up a lot in order to respond to his calling. It’s our prayer that each of us will listen to this story asking God to make direct application to what He may be asking us to give up out of faith.Please stop by our Next Step Bookstore and look over the books I selected for this faith series. Many of them are stories of folks who will inspire you as you read about how they overcame tremendously difficult circumstances.Pastor Ron
