Hi!  This is Neil, your Community Life Pastor.

Happy New Year! How has your first week of 2016 been? Hasn’t the rain brought a sense of freshness and new beginnings to the air? While listening to the rain yesterday it felt like the rain was washing through my soul. Worry and regret seemed to flow right out of me. I thought:

What do I have to worry about? I have so much to be thankful for! A wonderful wife, four loving kids, a great son-in-law, and an amazing 4 month old granddaughter. Plus I have a relationship with God, who loves me greatly, and has my best in mind.

I’m not sure why the rain brought that comfort, but it did. I pray God will bring similar comfort to each of you as you begin this New Year. God is good!

Speaking of new beginnings, if you are have not yet gone through Rooted, I want to recommend you sign up for our winter session starting on January 14th. This Sunday (the 10th) is the last day to sign up.

I promise this experience will amaze you, I don’t want you to miss it! If you’ve completed Rooted but are no longer with your group, consider signing up for a Life Group. We have a group just for you.  These two opportunities are the best way to get connected and build community.

Blessings on you and your family! See you Sunday!

My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
John 10:27

How have you been tuning in to God’s voice this week? My prayer is that you have been hearing Him above the noise of this world and the lies that Satan puts in front of us each and every single day – tempting us to settle for less in order to satisfy what only God and His love can provide.

My prayer is that you have been diving into His Word through the Daily Walk. God has reminded me this week of His heart for us through His message and promise of love for every generation throughout time. I know you will be encouraged as you hear God through His Word.

This week, we continue in our Tune In series. Kenton will be back and he is passionate about the message he’ll be sharing about tuning in to God’s voice. This will be a great weekend for your friends and family to join us as we all learn how to hear from our Heavenly Father, our Creator, together.

If you’ve never jumped into community – or if you have and it’s just faded over time – I want to invite each of you into a new season to join in relationship with God and His Church. I would love for each of you to jump into Rooted where you’ll hear God’s voice together in community and be known and loved by people who can walk through life with you every day. It’s a wonderful opportunity to see what living out our design with one another looks like.

2016 is going to be a great year as we choose to Tune In to God together!

Peace,
Kyle
