Doctrine of Propitiation, Sacrificial Giving (Pastoral Emphasis for 11/6)

Radical Experiment 2011 Update

We recognize the artists from the Dominican Republic who painted the mural at the entrance of our children's wing. They did a wonderful job for us and they did it for free.

Pray for us as go to spread the Gospel to the young men at the C.A. Dillon Youth Development Center on this Wednesday. You have to be 18 or older. If you are interested in going, sign up online or fill out connection card.

An important doctrine for us to understand is the doctrine of propitiation. Propitiation is Christ's payment for our sins and the removal of God's wrath. It works to provide our justification (being declared not guilty). Here's the video that we played during the announcement.

Happy Birthday & Anniversary to all celebrating in November.

Part of the Radical Experiment is to give sacrificially for a specific purpose.  Our hearts follow our money. One way is to give in a way that is church focused.  The church is God's primary agent to make disciples of all nations.  Those that attended our last Family Meeting know that we are way behind on our budget for the year. So we are asking all members to sacrifice to give at least 5% or more in their weekly giving until the end of the year.  If you are able to give more, please do so.  This will be very helpful to us to make sure that we can pay our bills and keep doing our level of ministry work.

Even though we don't have a formal dress code at church, I think we have an unspoken one. Our guest may perceive a dress code based on what they see on the stage from leadership. So in order to remove any barriers that might prevent some from visiting us or feeling comfortable in our service, the leadership will dress a little more casual. We will try this out until the end of the year and then evaluate. So don't be surprised when you see me not wearing a tie!
