Baptist Men's Breakfast, Feb 17

2/14/2019

 
At this month's Baptist Men's Breakfast, Dr. Sherrill Stevens will speak on forgiveness. Breakfast is served at 7:45 am in the fellowship hall.

Dr. Stevens posts devotions weekly and leads a local discussion group on theology. See Sherwood Lee for details. 

Repent is a powerful word that means so much more than that you are sorry you have erred...The context in which Jesus used the word leads me to believe that he made an imperative call for people to change their minds about how they think about God, about the priorities they pursue in their lives, about what they believe to be important enough to invest their lives in, and about the practices they follow as a result of those changes.  Dr. Sherrill G. Stevens, The ABCs of Religion (2016).

Baptist Men's Sunday

1/27/2019

 
Picture
The Baptist Men led worship this Sunday. Members memorialized the great men that left us this year: Price Heritage, Jeff Johnson, and Edison Temple. The winner of the Bryan McLamb Baptist Man of the Year Award is Scott Whitley. Scott is a deacon, a Sunday School teacher, a devoted leader of the RA's, an usher, and so many other things to us. The guest speaker, Ryan Matthews, shared his testimony and the message.

We all want our way because we think it's best. We look to all these things to fill the space only God can fill. These are called idols. Anything can be an idol, but they all have in common that they seek to benefit us. Jesus allows us to restore God to his true place. We get more messages about who we are than any other generation before us: on social media, the internet, television, countless ways. None of them tell us who we are in Christ. We have to learn to put our faith in what God tells us, not in the messages the world gives us.
