So glad to see you!

On this Palm Sunday, we celebrate our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ even more as we honor Him this  blessed week leading up to His greatest gift to mankind.  “We are so glad to see you” (Mark 11:6-12) was the message delivered through Pastor Bridges. For so much of Jesus’ ministry on earth, we see the disciples following after Him and His teaching them the way so they can carry on after He was gone. In this passage, they went ahead of Him making a way for Him to enter in to Jerusalem on Palm Sunday. We too claim to be Christians, followers of Christ, but for how long will we continue to be complacent with just following and living each day like the last? When will we stop worrying about what others say about us? When will we stop worrying about who doesn’t like us? When will each of us be ready to fulfill the Great Commission and use the talents that God gave us for His glory? When will we be willing to go ahead of Him and initiate a way for Christ to touch the hearts of our friends, our family, our neighbors, and even our enemies? If you haven’t already, consider starting  today. Invite someone to church for Easter Sunday and share the greatest gift we have ever received. If you don’t have a church home, we welcome you to join us this Sunday at 10am to see for yourself what God can do!
