Sunday we embarked on a journey of discovery-- a journey that at first thought might seem unnecessary. It is the journey to know God. Our first inclination might be to say, "Know God? I know God. I met Him a long time ago when I accepted Christ." And of course you would be right. But this journey will lead us to know Him better, to love Him more, and to serve Him more effectively.
We explored Philipians 3:8-10 and looked at the apostle Paul's purpose in life. It was simply to know Christ and know the power of His resurrection. Paul had walked with him for years and every day presented him with a new quest...to know Christ.
This will be a far different sermon series than I have ever shared before. It will have no prescribed length, no set number of Sundays, and I will not be the only teacher. Our staff pastors will all be participating in this teaching series, and all us, you and us, will be learning more about the God we serve than we could ever imagine.
In addition, each Sunday during the Oasis hour at 9:00 AM, we will be leading a group discussion of the previous week's teaching. Please take advantage of this great opportunity to broaden the scope of your relationship with Christ during 2012.
