January 13, 2008
We’ve got CD sets and videos, radio and TV shows
Conferences, retreats and seminars
We’ve got books and magazines to read on everything from A to Z
And a web to surf from anywhere we are
But I hope with all this information buzzing through our brains
That we will not let our hearts forget the most important thing
Is love, love, love, love, love It’s all about love, love, love, love, love
Everything else comes down to this
Nothing any higher on the list than love
It’s all about love
- All About Love - Steven Curtis Chapman
Each and every Sunday we come together as a family and as a body of believers here at Prestoncrest. The purpose of this email, sent to our entire congregation, is to help us focus on the first day of the week, preparing to gather together to share the Lord’s Supper and to praise and worship God.
Communion
John 15:9-17
Jesus showed us the greatest example of love because “he lay down his life for his friends.” As we share the supper, let’s not only remember our Lord’s example, but also commit to follow it and show our love to others.
Sermon
“Ground Zero” (Bob Chisholm)
1 Corinthians 13:1-7
Technology has made communication quicker and easier. But it has not necessarily made it more genuine or real. In fact, it’s possible to be connected with people around the globe without ever really knowing them. And the huge success of Myspace on the internet gives us a look into how many deal with the growing social distance. What can we take into our relationships that will show us how to bridge differences and live a life that pleases God? Join us this Sunday as we begin our new series on marriage and relationships, “Myspace or Ourspace.” We’ll start right where we should, beginning at “Ground Zero.”
Prayer Time
Romans 12:1-2
What does it mean when we ask God to guideguardanddirectus? What are we really asking for? We understand the need to look for and follow God’s will but sometimes struggle to do as we get caught up in our busy lives. Sunday morning, let’s use our Prayertime to ask God to lead us to His will: in our personal lives, in our relationships, and in the future of His church at Prestoncrest. Pray that He will guide our ways, that He will guard our hearts, and that He will direct our path.
We are encouraged to be a family of believers that choose to come together each week in worship. Come this Sunday with a desire to not just come to church, but come to truly be the church.
