Dear Friends in Christ,

Is there anything more important to you than your faith in Jesus Christ?  I hope not. Our faith in Jesus Christ means we are saved for eternity.   With Christ in our life we don't have to worry about our final
destination. Because of Christ we're going to heaven!


Let me ask you another question? Is there anything more important to others than their relationship with Jesus Christ? No there isn't.  Everyone is in need of a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. Each of us will be judged at the end of this life. Everyone has an eternal
destination. We all need a Savior.


One more question: Have you ever wondered how you might be able to share your faith with others? I hope so. When we are called by faith and become a Christian, we are charged to become a witness of Jesus Christ to others. Like Jesus, we care about people who do not know God's love. Remember the bible passage? "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son." (John 3:16a) God not only loves us, but the whole world. God puts His love into our hearts so we can love people the way He does.


I want to invite you to a special bible study: Natural Evangelism. Coming up in September we will begin a six week small group bible study. In this bible study you will learn how to share your faith "in a natural way" with others. There are a number of "canned" methods available, but many of them seemed forced or "unnatural" to our way of relating to people. In this bible study you can learn how to have spiritual conversations, how to connect people in spiritual ways through their personal interests, different ways of inviting people, and you will grow in your own faith. Look around for more information about Natural Evangelism. Through this study, God will equip you to share His Good News.


Together with you in Sharing the Good News,
Rich Mokry,
Pastor
