No Fear of Lack

The Christmas season, probably more than any other time of the year, can cause us to wonder if there will “be enough” to get us through. Not just in buying things for others, but the reflection about our own financial situation; will I have enough?
Most people I know don’t worry about this on a day-today basis, but that’s not to say there isn’t a small voice in the back of our minds, itching with the wonderment about being able to provide for ourselves and loved ones in the future.

That’s a real fear.

The amount some say should be in saving to be able to retire is beyond laughable and comprehension to me. How can I ever retire, continue to take care of my family, provide for my parents, continue to care for my differently-abled son, leave anything for my other son and his family, and on and on?.?.

Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom..

Luke 12:32

And some have the real fear of being able to eat today; at all!

In Luke 12, Jesus gives the command to not to be anxious lives; what we eat, drink, or wear. He reminds us that He knows all our needs and provides.

God’s provisions are real! He provides; not always what we want, but what we need – physically and spiritually. (And He gets to decide what we need. It’s His definition, not ours.)

That doesn’t mean there are no concerns for us, but to look at the manger and see His provision – in this life and eternally in the next! We can rejoice that regardless of what we do or don’t have, the coming of Jesus, the Good Shepherd, means we look forward to wanting for nothing; forever!

“Do not be afraid,” the Kingdom of God is yours in Jesus! What more do you need?!

The Advent season is a time to reflect on this message and find solace in the promise of Christ’s love and grace.

DEUTERONOMY – Next Sunday Morning Adult Class

Our next study for our Sunday morning adult Bible class will be the book of Deuteronomy.

“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.

Deuteronomy 6:4-9 (ESV)

Deuteronomy is a pivotal book in both the Torah (first five books of the Bible) as well as the entire Old Testament. It encapsulates and distills the essence of the Torah and shares many theological truths. It contains sermons, laws, and exhortations delivered by Moses to the Israelites just before his passing and the Israelite’s entry into the Promised Land. Moses motivates the people to obey the covenant legislation out of love and gratitude toward God.

Deuteronomy has themes of God’s love, justice, covenant, prophecy, and law; all essential elements in Scripture. That said, love is at the heart of Deuteronomy; God’s love for all people (and for Israel in particular), our responsive love for God, and our love for others.

The book is frequently quoted or alluded to the in New Testament. Jesus Christ himself citing it more than any of the other books of the Pentateuch.

Join us, starting September 22, 2024, as we start our journey through this exciting book!

2025 Mission Opportunities

Are you feeling the call to GO? 

We have two options this year for you to answer that question!

Then Jesus Came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20

Alaska Summer 2025

Background

We have a few people in our congregation that wanted to go on mission trip, however they haven’t found the one they felt called to go on.

While on mission in Kenya, we got the opportunity to talk to Amy who was on our team. She has been a leader with GraceWorks Alaska a couple of times now. When I (Angie) came back from Kenya and shared a few stories with the Battle group a few of the youth expressed wanting to go on a trip. So, I gathered more information.
