This Sunday we begin a new series titled, Come & See, where together we will look at centuries old life-changing conversations that individuals had with Jesus from the gospel of John. My prayer is that we would experience life-changing encounters with Jesus like these individuals experienced.

The first conversation will address perhaps the most fundamental question: Where should we look for answers to life’s biggest questions?

This past Friday was sarcastically referred to as “Quitting Friday” by those among us who study people and our predictable New Year’s Resolution patterns. I read an article last week that suggests that nearly half of us (43%) expect to fail by February. This is not saying that 43% of people DO fail in the first month, that number is closer to two-thirds (64%) – No, this says that 43% of people who start resolutions in January, START EXPECTING TO FAIL one month into their resolutions. It’s almost as if we know–even in our resolutions–that our priorities are out of order.

Matthew 6:25-34

This Sunday we are going to talk about… wait for it… investing wisely. No need to adjust your screen. You read it correctly. We are going to talk about our investments, BUT I PROMISE YOU it will not be anything like the investment conversations you have with your financial team if you are into that sort of thing.

Jesus will help us invest wisely by teaching us the reality that what we invest and where we invest it is determined by at least two things: 1) how clearly we see and 2) who we choose to serve.

Pastor Rick Chitwood teaches from Romans and challenges us to accept others no matter what their convictions may be.

Pastor Rick Chitwood challenges us to take our faith in Christ seriously and make some changes this year, starting today.
