Offering

The amalgamation of two clashing world views of origins has given birth to a third which appeals to many modern minds, but must forget three biblical revelations to survive.

The Gift: 40 Days, 40 Nights
Two divine gifts sustained our Lord for 40 days on His way to that moment in sacred history that became the center of all time and eternity. What would happen if you and I dedicated 40 days centered on these two sustaining gifts?

The Gift: Spilling the Secret
Seven chapters of salvation history, seven divine secrets until God himself “spilled the secret” through His chosen confidants. Should the world have expected any less at the end? Consider the revelation and full implications of a miner prophet’s major message.
09/11/2010
The Gift: Of Maniacs and Fools and Other Such Gifts
Seven stages in the life-cycle of a prophet, some of them so human as to question the his/her divine calling, some of them so disturbing that only a fool would desire such a calling.

The Gift: A Tale of Two Crowds
It happened long ago when a wedding party and a funeral train passed each other at a crossing that would never be forgotten. Could it be that two modern anniversaries have coincided with a result that will always be remembered?
10/30/2010
The Gift: Ellen White - What Was She Really Like?
“By their fruits you will know them,” He warned. Which makes all the more significant the three great passions of this particular prophetic gift, and the global fruits it has borne.
11/06/2010
The Gift: Ellen White - How Did it Really Work?
Our third millennial skepticism to any claim that God called someone to the role of a modern prophet echoes Jesus’ own warning against false prophets. And yet, the Bible predicts a prophetic ministry in the end time. So, how’s a person to tell the true from the false?
11/13/2010
The Gift: Ellen White - But What About Those Critics?
Plagiarist and usurper of Bible authority, or true messenger of God?
11/20/2010
The Gift: When Every Nerve Shrieked With Pain
When someone is called to a prophetic office, we can sometimes learn as much from what they personally experience as from what they overtly teach. Which is why some very profound lessons on how to survive, even thrive, at times of intense suffering are revealed in discovering how she related to hers.

Offering for May 18, 2024

Pioneer Operating Budget

A passionate woman stood on our church platform and shared how our church was reaching our local community by offering free English classes to people in our community who desired to learn how to speak English. What struck me most was the deep bonds she and the team from our church had developed with the people who were coming once a week to our community room to learn.

What was even more beautiful was that our church had partnered with a local business that donated household goods, and as a church, we were meeting some of the physical needs of those who were coming to these classes as well! One couple had been praying for a reclining couch to meet the need of a sick family member who needed to sit and sleep in a reclined position.

The woman sharing the testimony told our church that just then she called the family to offer them one that had just been given to the church by this local business! It’s not a coincidence – I saw God moving through the faithfulness of those dedicating their time and energy to run this ministry.

When you give to our local church budget, which is what today’s offering is for, you give to meet needs both for our church to function, as well as forus to be a blessing to the community around us.
