God has called us to be above the standards that the world has set for our families. In this series we will take a look at what scripture has to say about being godly families who set the example for the world around us.

We wrapped up our week of VBS with a message that challenges us to realize our call as Christ followers to go into the world and show love by the way we serve those around us. This is our first introduction to our new Youth Minister, Jed Shermer.

Today was a very special opportunity for us to be presented with a message from our children's and youth ministries. They served in every part of our worship service and focused on the importance of letting the light that God provides for us to shine in dark places. Mike capped off this thought with a great message that challenges us as the church to help carry out that mission of being the light!

This week we began our new series "Uncommon" with a look at what it means for us when God invites us to be a part of what He is doing, and how we can extend that invitation to those around us as a part of accomplishing our mission as a church.

Hosea 10:11-12

Mike gave us a great challenge of responding to the prompt from God to

understand what our next step in faith is. If you did not have an

opportunity to respond to that challenge we encourage you to take a listen

now and pray through that decision.
