“Why the World Awaits You” (Lane Wettengel, CRI)
Psalm 67 | Guest Speaker Lane Wettengel (CRI) | The Lord Jesus didn’t tell His followers to invite people to church—He told them to go. He didn’t pour out His Spirit on His people to feel good about their church, He told them to go—and He hasn’t rescinded His command. Whether it’s our next door neighbor or someone on the other side of the world, people need Jesus. Near or far, His church was commissioned to take the Gospel to the lost and needy of the world and to encourage missionaries serving in field. And His church is us.
“Racing Toward an Uncertain Future” (Church Leadership, Part 2)

Pastor Jay McCarl | Acts 17:1-9
What is the Mark of the Beast? What is bedrock of Ministry? What do these two radically different subjects have in common? Very little, but Paul’s mission to the Thessalonians sheds a lot of light on both. Consider yourself challenged.
