Assembly of God
There are plenty of people with sour expressions and equally sour dispositions. People who are full of joy are the pleasant exception. Christians should be the exception. Those whose lives are built on Jesus Christ and the confident assurance of the salvation he offers can have an unshakable daily joy, despite outward circumstances. That means through sickness, misfortune, war, loss or even death, nothing can steal one’s God-given joy. Happiness is temporal. Joy is eternal. Pastor Chuck Franco will share a message titled “Joy, Our Testimony,” from John 15:11 this coming Sunday, Nov. 12.
The Wednesday Bible study is studying “Faith in Hostile Times,” by Berni Dymet. So many people question what the world is coming to in these volatile times. Even those who have been Christians for decades can be saddened and discouraged by world events and the challenge to biblical values and societal norms. But there is hope, and there are answers in God’s word. Now is a great time to make Bible study a regular part of your weekly activities.
