For Our Saturday Night Readers

What a great privilege it is to gather and worship the Lord. Many of our fellow believers around the world don't have the freedom we enjoy here in America. Many are forced to meet in secret and do so under the threat of violent persecution. Give thanks to the Lord for our freedoms and continue to pray for the persecuted church around the world.

This summer members of our worship music team here at Christ's Church will return to Namibia as the band "By Faith". They will be playing concerts every day during the trip, everywhere from High Schools to Churches, dirt lots to Community Amphitheatres. This group will be bringing the gospel message of Jesus Christ and education on sexual purity in the face of the HIV/AIDS pandemic across the country. Tomorrow morning "By Faith" will lead us in worship. Included in the set are a couple of great hymns (Be Thou My Vision & Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing), some CCA favorites (Blessed Be Your Name, Glory & You Are Holy, for instance) and a new song for us from Matt Redmon. So I hope you'll prepare your heart to worship in song - loudly!

If you're one of those who likes an advance look at the sermon text, read thru Mark 10:35-45. You might also look at 1 Peter 2:4-10. We will wrap up our brief series of studies on the subtle mis-steps that threaten the church by talking about a misunderstanding of leadership. I look forward to worshipping the Lord with you in the morning!
