First Christian Church

By Bruce Humes Pastor “Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated to the Gospel of God which he promised before through the prophets in the Holy Scriptures, concerning his son Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 1:1-3a) Paul called himself a bondservant or slave of Jesus Christ.

By Rolland Coburn Pastor Worries and fears can control our thinking and actions. But the Bible says they need not control us. “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go,” Joshua 1:9. The point is to not let fear keep you from doing what you should. Our Lord says to fear God. That is wisdom. Yes, and
