New Beginnings

    I don’t know anyone looking back over their 2009 who would be completely satisfied with how they lived and made use of the opportunities given them. But, whenever Jesus interacted with someone, He wasn’t concerned so much with who they had been, but rather with whom they had yet to become in Him.

    To Simon Peter Jesus said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas (which, when translated, is Peter).” Though well intentioned, as Simon, the soon to be apostle was impulsive and prone to weakness and fear. But, Jesus already saw him as Peter, the rock upon which He would build His infant church.

    Each new year is an opportunity to begin anew; to start over; to “forget what is behind and (press on) toward what is ahead.” (Philippians 3:13) This year doesn’t have to be a repeat of last. In Isaiah 43:19, the Lord declares, “See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland.”

    Life makes no sense unless it’s lived in relationship with God. Wherever you’ve been, we serve a God of new beginnings. If you’re looking for a new start, for new meaning, for a new opportunity to live the life you know you were created for, God has that for you. And we would love for you to pursue that with us. We meet every Wednesday at 8 PM in the new Tate Center Grand Hall. Our Freshley service for 1st year students meets every Monday at 8 PM in the Wesley Chapel.

    We’d love to have the opportunity to get to know you and go after God’s best together.
    Blessings,

    Bob
