A — What is this about? This passage describes the severity of God's judgment on the land through famine, drought, and devastation. Joel calls priests and people alike to mourn, fast, and gather before the Lord, recognizing that these calamities are meant to awaken hearts to repentance and dependence on God. B — Best verse to summarize this passage: "Consecrate a fast, call a sacred assembly; gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the Lord your God, and cry out to the Lord." (Joel 1:14) C — What are we called to do? We are called to take sin seriously, to examine our hearts honestly, and to respond to hardship with repentance, fasting, prayer, and renewed trust in the Lord rather than indifference or self-reliance.

Alright, here are a few quick clips of a #PCA in #NAPARC where a Teaching Elder (Pastor Joel Littlepage) says this: "...I want everyone to hear it from me as your pastor, because you're gonna hear it either way. We had discerned, Melissa and I, in our journey seeking the Lord's face, is that our calling was to come into full communion and unity with the Catholic Church." And then serves communion to the congregation, including Teaching Elder and the current Mission to North America coordinator Irwyn Ince. At the end of the service, TE Irwyn Ince sends them out with prayers and blessings, saying: "I'm gonna ask, uh, most particularly GMO's elder shepherdesses, leaders, come surround them, and anyone else who wants to come on down to the front. Put your hands on our dear Littlepages, as we get to go before the Lord on their behalf, understanding that as said before the service.

An overview of Romans 9 brings us to verse 22-24 and the challenge to the obstinate heart. Who are to to say to the one who has formed you? Consider God's sovereignty before your Salvation.

Bro. Logan's Sun. evening message tonight, 8/31/25, was a doctrinal one, on "The Mercy of God". He preached from Micah Chapter 7, as well as verses in Hebrews and Lamentations. What a God of mercy we have!

Our guest preacher this morning, Sunday, 8/31/25, was Bro. Joel Logan, former Pastor of Tabernacle Baptist Church in Greenville, SC. He preached on the topic: "The Wisdom of Solomon", and applied these verses to our lives very clearly. He used several verses from from 1 Kings 4 and also from the Book of James.

The sermon centers on the fulfillment of God's promises through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, as proclaimed by Peter in Acts 2:14–36, demonstrating that the events are the long-awaited inauguration of the last days. Drawing from the prophecy of Joel, Peter affirms that the Spirit's pouring out on all flesh—regardless of age, gender, or status—marks the beginning of a new era in which God's salvation is available to all who call on His name. He then turns to Jesus of Nazareth, declaring Him as the crucified and resurrected Messiah, whose death was foreordained by God's determinate counsel and whose resurrection confirms His divine authority. Peter grounds this truth in Old Testament prophecy, particularly David's psalm, which foretold Christ's resurrection and exaltation, proving that Jesus is both Lord and Christ, reigning now at God's right hand. The sermon emphasizes that the kingdom of God is not a future, physical reign but a present spiritual reality, with Christ already seated in heavenly authority, having defeated His enemies and empowering believers through the Holy Spirit to proclaim the gospel. The tone is both pastoral and urgent, calling listeners to repentance, faith, and active participation in God's ongoing redemptive work.
