Pastor's Thoughts

Sunday September 25, 2022

Good morning and welcome to DaySpring Community Church. We are so glad you are here to worship with us today. This morning I want to share a message with you titles Take Up Thy Cross. Our main Scripture is found in Matthew 16:21-24. I want us to take time this morning to examine the meaning behind the three things Jesus says one must do if they are to come after Him. First, we must Deny ourselves. Second, we must Take up the cross. Third, we Follow Him. I pray each of us takes the time to examine our hearts and determine if we are truly taking up the cross.

I want to say Thank You to Shawn for becoming the facilitator for the Homeless Bags and Ane for becoming the facilitator for the Sunday School Fellowship Breakfasts. I also want to encourage each of you to look for ways to get involved in the ministry of DaySpring Community Church. There is more for us to do than just coming to church. We you participate in Kingdom Work. Not only are you a blessing to others, but you also receive a blessing from the Lord.

Don’t forget our Old Fashion Sunday next week. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to invite someone to church. We will have a great day of singing and testimonies and a wonderful time of fellowshipping following the service.

There are many exciting things happening here at DaySpring Community Church. Be sure to check the calendar and make plans to be a part of everything we do. Don’t forget to look for ways to be a blessing to others.

In His Service,
Pastor Dennis

Mid-Week Bible Study

Wednesday September 28, 2022

This week we will looking at James 3:1-12 as we are in week 7 of our study of the letter of James. Tonight, James will be instructing us on the tongue and how manage our mouths. In verses 1-4 he says the tongue is like a bit and a rudder, which are both used to guide. In verses 5-8 he says the tongue is like a fire. Fires usually start small and grow. James says fire defiles and spreads. In verses 9-12 James asks a series a question to illustrate how two different things cannot come from one source. As people of the faith, we must be cautious when instructing others and when interacting with others.

In His Service,
Pastor Dennis
