The next four weeks are critical for Centerpointe Church as
we focus our attention on our mission: "Live Dead." September is our missions month.
I love missions. I love hearing about what God is doing
around the world through the missionaries we support. I love giving money to
missions projects and missionary budgets on a regular basis and challenging
others to do the same. I love going on mission trips to build, teach and pray.
Our theme this year, “Live Dead” will ask some serious questions of
us, like, what if we lived our lives completely surrendered to Jesus? How would
that change us? How would we respond to the world around us?
Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat
is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce
many new kernels—a plentiful harvest of new lives.” (John 12:24 NLT-SE)
I challenge Centerpointe Church to be part of each service over the next four weeks and ask, what is God saying
to us about our lives, our thinking, our communities and our resources? Will we
die to ourselves and allow Jesus to live within us and through us?
I believe God is going to do something great as we surrender
our lives to Him.
Serving Together,
Pastor Keith
