11 And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; 13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ. – Ephesians 4:11-13

Today I have begun adding items to our website to help us to know the Word of God better. There is a new heading on the home page called “bible reading.” Underneath that main heading will appear more and more links to give you various Bible reading plans, Bible memory verses, and in various translations. All this is to make it easier for you to spend time in the Bible daily.

Before you check your email or read the latest news, read the Word! Work on Scripture memory. Pray about what you’ve read and memorized! Let God’s Word transform your mind, and transform your life! It’s only a click away!

His…yours,

Pastor Ken

It’s our second year going to Revolve, and both years have been a terrific experience. We’re only there for one night, so it’s a jam-packed event with speakers, music and drama that’s all focused toward teenage girls. Some of the same speakers and singers from last year’s event were there again this year. It’s action packed, and everything that takes place is absolutely applicable to young girls in their Christian walk. We’ve all been in agreement that it’s as good as any camp or conference that we’ve ever been to; everyone comes away with their hearts and souls touched very deeply. The adults definitely enjoy it as much as the girls and are glad to be a part of something tham makes a positive difference in their lives. Here are some of the girls’ comments and favorite moments from Revolve:

The music was great and all of the speakers had a lot of great stories that touched a lot of us. Jessi Jenkins

I like the drama group and how they acted out everything. They showed how God worked in their lives. I also liked all the music they had. Going to Revolve Tour brought me closer to God and I’m thankful for that. – Miranda Aiello

Revolve really makes you think about your life and if you’re really living for God. The music is great and the speakers’ stories relate to you in so many ways. When you get home your heart feels clean. –Haley Chandler

One of the best parts of the Revolve Tour is the drama team and Chad Eastman. They really made you think about the way God works in your life. – Kasie Hargrove
