____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A Note from the Pastor. . . If you have ever watched your investments in the stock market, you know that the only
c onsistency of high-risk/high-yield stocks is their flux-causing reflux in your stomach. The only sane manner to both keep

Parenting can be as stressful and similar to the stock market, but the subject matter is of almost inconceivably greater importance. Our youth of today will be our leaders of tomorrow. Don’t we want the dividends of their beliefs to reflect the ways of God, rather than the topsy-turvy views of this world? Chip Ingram is the president of Walk Through the Bible Ministry and has a DVD teaching based study entitled, “Effective
Parenting in a Defective World: How to Raise Kids Who Stand Out from the Crowd.” Our church will begin this 9
week study on Sunday, January 27th, at 5:45 p.m. I want to encourage all of our parents to consider taking this class. I believe what Chip Ingram will teach will not just be i nformative, but inspirational in helping us rear our children to love God and become respectful people. I know I still need h elp with that, and I bet you do too. Our children are worth our sacrifice of time for this study… their future is more valuable to us than any other investment!

been trying to determine what we would be working on for I am not sure that any of us understand the meaning of our spring musical and just could not come up with the word commitment any more. We so quickly abandon anything new we felt like God was leading us to. God just kept leading us back to a musical we did approximately 4 anything that does not measure up to our expectations. I years ago called Somebody’s Praying You Through. This is was a loyal Atlanta Braves fan for years. I became a fan the first time we have ever repeated a musical that I can during the seventies, not when they were winning and remember. Make no mistake, THIS MESSAGE IS going to the World Series, but when losses were more the norm. When they did begin to win and started going to WORTH REPEATING. This was, and IS, a powerful play off games and to the Series, suddenly the ballpark message about just how important the power of prayer is. was inundated with new fans. Tickets became hard to get If we are honest with ourselves, when we pray, most of the and everyone wore a Braves t-shirt. However, at the first time we do not pray EXPECTING an answer. We may sign of a return to the “old Braves”, many deserted pray HOPING for an answer. The Bible is full of examples team for a more productive franchise. These new fans and testimonies of God’s people calling out to Him and of His answering these prayers because of their faith and lacked a real love for the team and did not understand what being a true fan meant. A fan is a fan, win or lose. This musical is something we want our entire church Today we are so quick to abandon our church, our family to participate in. ALL of us can pray.

The rights and wrongs of contraception 5 may 02

The Rights and Wrongs of Contraception This discussion is not about the use of contraceptives by single people, de-factos, and adulterers. If people think they are smart enough to be sexually impure without risking pregnancies by using the pill, condoms, or other devices, they are not smart enough to avoid God’s judgment. The question is: Which means of avoiding pregnancy are legitimate for
