The Way of Jesus: Through the Wilderness
Sabbath Luke 5:16; Mark 1:35 (located on page 1031 & 1002 in the Bible located in the seat back pocket) Message Notes
Our New Cov Challenge this week is “Radical” by David Platt . We will use the bible.com website or mobile app to deliver our weekly challenges. Bible.com (aka YouVersion) is free and will require setting up an account. Our hope is that we will all experience the same reading and challenges, which will give us opportunity to encourage and pray for one another. Go to bible.com, login or create an account, search for “Radical” and choose plans under search results.
If you desire to receive Christ as your Savior, the following prayer may be helpful: Jesus, right now, I trust my current situation to You. I confess, it’s so easy to focus on my current situation and leave You out. I admit I need rescue and hope. So here I am. I lay my past, present, and future wide open before You. Thank You for giving Your life for me, paying the full balance of my sins by dying on the cross, rising from the grave and offering to redeem me. I choose to follow You. Amen
