Aug 21st Pause with the Pastor and Announcements

ANNOUNCEMENT INDEX


Pause with the Pastor

 

Dear family and friends,
 
One of the most effective ways to start sharing the gospel with someone is to simply to tell them what Jesus has done in your life. You’re the expert on your life and they can’t argue with your experience. 

 

The apostle Paul did this repeatedly. In Acts 22, Paul stood before a hostile crowd and told his story. He explained what his life was like before Christ, how he encountered Jesus on the road to Damascus, and how his life changed afterward.

 

Then in Acts 26, standing before King Agrippa, Paul did essentially the same thing again. He didn’t begin with a complicated theological argument. He told them: This is who I was. This is how I met Jesus. And this is what Jesus has done in my life. That is your testimony too.

 

Peter tells us in 1 Peter 3:15, “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.”

 

You don’t need a dramatic story, you don’t need to remember the exact date you became a Christian, and you certainly don’t need to be a theologian. You simply need to know your story.

 

A helpful way to prepare your testimony is to think through three questions:

1. What was my life like before I trusted Christ? What did I believe? What was missing? What was I trusting in? Ideally, be briefer about this than the other two sections. 

2. How did I come to understand and trust the gospel? Who helped me? What did God use to open my eyes?

3. What difference has knowing Christ made in my life? How has He changed your priorities, given you forgiveness, hope, purpose, peace, and a new relationship with God?

 

And somewhere in your testimony, include one simple verse that clearly explains the gospel, and what you understood. For example, Romans 6:23: “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

 

That one verse tells the whole story: our problem is sin, its consequence is death, salvation is a gift, and that gift is found in Jesus Christ.

 

Or you could use Isaiah 53:6: “We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.”

 

Our sin belonged to us—but Jesus took it upon Himself at the cross.

 

Your testimony does not replace the gospel, but it does give you a natural way to lead someone to the gospel.

 

Paul understood that. In Acts 26:22, after telling his story, he said: “God has helped me to this very day; so I stand here and testify to small and great alike.” That is something every Christian can and should do.

 

You may never preach a sermon to hundreds of people, but you can tell a friend, coworker, neighbor, family member, or someone sitting across the table from you:

“Let me tell you what Jesus has done for me.”

 

Take a few minutes this week and write out your testimony. Keep it simple. Make Christ the center of it. Know the gospel verse you want to use. And then ask God to give you an opportunity—and the courage—to share it. When that happens, please let me know so I can pray with you for that person!

 

And before you finish reading this email, take some time to read the testimonies of our new members. As you read their stories, thank God for the many different ways He draws people to Himself—and remember that you have a story of His grace to tell too.

 

Because, as in the recent past, we’ll be voting on them to officially welcome them into our family, if you have any questions about anything they’ve written, please feel free to ask me.

 

All these folks have completed the membership class.  We want you to know how they came to faith and what their faith in Jesus means to them.  Please read their testimonies at the end of this email. 

 

In preparation for this Sunday morning please read Luke 23:35-43.

COMMUNITY CARE MINISTRY



BAPTISM AND MEMBERSHIP

Ruth Bigley

I became a Christian as a result of a Bible study at our senior class trip in high school. That’s where the seed was planted. I began attending Bible studies with my high school friends and began reading the gospel of Matthew. It was a while reading the gospel that I saw my need to accept Christ as my personal Savior and came to faith in Christ. If I were to show up at heaven’s gate, and God asked me why He should let me in, I would say it is because of Christ’s righteousness and His blood covenant with me – not my merit. My favorite versus Hebrews 13:5, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

 

 

Brady Buser

I was saved at a young age, and don’t remember the exact day that I understood and accepted Christ as my Savior, but I do remember learning to grow to love my Heavenly Father as I grew up. Because I understood His love for me, that He would go to the Cross to pay my eternal debt that I could not pay, that I would be welcomed into His family. If the Lord asked me why He should let me into heaven, my reply would be that there is nothing that I have done that is worthy of eternal life with Him, except for what I have been given by His Son’s death for Me.

My favorite verses is James 1:5. “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” I appreciate the fact that my Heavenly Father is one who does not withhold good things from His children, but also, that what the Lord is generously giving us His wisdom to grow in love and affection for Him!

 

 

Christopher Deal

I was raised in the New Apostolic Church, and attendance was compulsory. I didn’t know why I believed in Jesus, nor could I defend my faith. As I got older and could make my own decisions, I didn’t attend church. There were times I could feel Christ calling me to Him. In 2010 I was living in sin and got my girlfriend pregnant. Knowing it was wrong, I still encouraged her to have an abortion. I moved to San Diego a year or so later and visited the Rock Church; it was Mother’s Day. Pastor Miles said he wanted to pray and wish Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers there and even for those who’ve had an abortion because they are mothers as well; and they will see their child in heaven. God used that to convict me and at that moment I dedicated my life to Christ and was saved.  My favorite verses are Ephesians 1:3-14. These verses reinforce the fact that I am not in control. I am confident I will go to heaven not because of anything I have done but because Jesus did everything for me.

 

 

Victoria Deal

For most of my childhood I thought I was a Christian because my family was. Since I went to church all the time and because I was a “good girl” God surely would accept me. I did not have any desire to read my Bible and actually apply it to my heart. When I was 9 years old I was baptized and believed the Gospel was true and asked Christ to be my Savior to forgive my sin. Looking back, I still lived as though my salvation and acceptance by God was up to my obedience and being a good person. I had a very skewed and wrong view of salvation in thinking that my “goodness” is what saved me, not the righteousness of Christ. I could not have told you all of this back then because “you don’t know what you don’t know,” but that’s really where my heart was at . . . obeying laws and making rules for myself instead of trusting in Jesus’ righteousness and God’s grace through faith. I think I was in a Christian bubble trying to be the best Christian I could be. I knew I sinned by getting angry, being selfish, prideful, or having a bad attitude, but I also saw my parents act like this who were Christian’s so it was a confusing time for me as a new believer. My parents were not really taking the time to explain to me what to do with my sin when it happened, so I just fell back into the legalistic ways I had been living before becoming a Christian. 

 

When I entered the 8th grade and temptations came my “goodness” could not save me because I found out I was not good in a real tangible way. I started rebelling against my parents because they were in a way “my god” or whom I was trying to please and perform for, and not the God of the Bible.

 

I began lying, cheating on tests, disobeying my parents, going to parties, etc. That continued through the 9th grade and beginning of 10th, but got worse with high school and me making the cheerleading team. I lived for popularity and desperately wanted to fit in. The only way I got affirmation was by people-pleasing. I put on different masks for different people: church friends, my parents, cheerleading, dance, etc. I was fake and after a while grew tired of trying to deceive everyone. I got really depressed seeking approval from all these ‘idols.’ But God was always with me still.

 

Even though my sin made me feel distant from Him, He was pursuing my heart relentlessly and through a good friend He drew me back to Himself. I had a friend that always saw right through me. I would tell him I was a Christian, but when it came to him asking me the hard questions about my faith, I knew my lifestyle did not back up the talk I was talking. He was still always very kind to me and gracious. He persistently asked me to come to his church’s youth group for over a year and in the fall of my 10th grade year I finally went.

 

Side Note – when I was entering high school the youth pastor at my parents church moved with his family to New Zealand as missionaries and the church did not have a replacement youth pastor for several years. There was really no youth group at my home church, just youth gatherings that were led by parents (not mine) and no real discipleship at home.

 

However, God had a plan for my life! It was at this youth group where God broke me over my sin and gave me hope through the Gospel and His amazing grace. It was truly glorious. My high school years ended up being some of the best years of my life because I had truly found a personal relationship with God. I was discipled by the youth pastor’s wife and we had small groups where we learned how to read the Bible and apply it to our hearts and lives. I learned how to repent from my sins and rely on God’s love and grace when I struggled with sin. I went on missions trips and did ministry through dance. I was able to make a Christlike impact on my Cheerleading team and half of my cheerleading team came to faith in Christ my senior year.

 

There were so many good memories and growth that came from that youth ministry during high school. Everything after that has been an amazing journey of learning more about the grace of God and the Gospel. Throughout college and my 20’s, I have many  other testimonies of hard lessons learned and victories won. It’s so encouraging to my heart to look back on how God is sanctifying me and transforming me still. I have a long way to go in becoming more like Christ, but His grace is so sufficient for me each day and I look forward to one day being with Him in glory. 

 

I know, I am not worthy to enter heaven. I am a sinner, and there’s nothing – nothing – nothing good in me except the righteousness of Christ in His work on the cross. My merit is flawed with all my sin, but here’s the résumé and testimony of Christ from Galatians 2:20: “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21 I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!”

 

 

Gail Frick

I grew up in a Christian home, where I was taught about God’s love, salvation, and the importance of prayer. Faith has been a process rather than an aha moment, and each blessing and crisis has strengthened my faith, trust and reliance on the Lord. At heaven’s gate, I would say that I am here, not by my own doing, but by God’s grace. By grace through faith, Jesus saved me. My favorite verse is Psalm 91, “The Lord is my refuge and fortress.” I proclaim his name, and because I love Him he will protect and rescue me.

 

 

Brad Hurlbut

I was raised in a lukewarm church, and did not have assurance of my salvation. The teacher led me to the Lord by sharing John 3:3 explaining that I needed to be born again. Christ would let me into heaven, because I love him as my Lord and Savior he paid the price I could never print, pay.  My favorite, but I have lots of them, is Ephesians 2:8, 9, “For it is by grace you’ve been saved through faith, and this is not of yourselves; it is the gift of God not by works so that no one can boast.”

 

Gina Hurlbut

I became a Christian in the fall of my sophomore year at University in 1978. I was not raised in a Christian home, although we would only go to church at Easter and Christmas. I believed in Jesus as a historical figure. In college, I was presented the truth of Jesus, being my savior by a young woman with Campus Crusade for Christ. When I die, I know I will go straight to be in the presence of my Lord, not because of anything, I have done, but because of the substitutionary death of Jesus for my sins. My favorite verse is Proverbs 14:26 “She who fears the Lord has a secure fortress for her children. It will be a refuge.”

 

 

Lara LeCompte

I grew up in a small Christian church but did not fully understand the Christian faith. As a freshman in college, I started to think about my life and purpose, created a timeline of goals for myself, (college degree, get a stable job, get married, have kids, buy house, etc.). But it all seemed simple, somewhat small; I felt that there could be more to life than that. I was invited to a church youth service, started discipleship, went to a retreat, where I learned more deeply what Christ did for me and how it heals me, and how He saved me from sin and death and it became my own. I learned how the Holy Spirit empowers me to live Christlike, developing a deeper sense of purpose now in every season and stage of life. My favorite verses are Ephesians 2:4-10.  “But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”

 

This is my favorite verse because of how it describes the reason for Jesus’ sacrifice for me–because of God’s rich mercy and great love, the depth of my need for Jesus’ sacrifice–I were dead, the result of His sacrifice and God’s desire for me, and all of us–He made me alive in Christ and seated me with Him, that after I was dead, then made alive, God still has a purpose for me – and all of us.

 

This is also my favorite verse to quote when sharing the gospel to non-believers. It shows that though one might feel hopeless and purposeless, there is still hope and purpose  in and through Jesus.

 

 

Nate LeCompte

My parents took me to church. While in kid’s church, there was an altar call and I went to the front (which looked like a castle), and I prayed the sinners prayer. My parents continued to take me to church and teach me about Jesus. Today I understand the wages of sinners is death, and it’s a debt I cannot pay. To pay my debt and be restored in relationship to my Heavenly Father fully by the one-time sacrifice of Jesus Christ for my sins. I can claim no other nor claim any responsibility. My salvation is a work of God’s unmerited grace given to me. My favorite verse is Romans 5:8-11, “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.” This is my favorite verse because it so clearly teaches that God loved me enough to allow Jesus to die for me while the debt of sin was between me and Him, sparing me from the wrath due my sin. Even further, it not only shows me that a debt was standing between me, but that my sin made me enemies against God. Illustrating that it’s not just an offense but that my sin made me at war with God. That Christ’s payment isn’t just to make peace with God in death, but His resurrection is also new life for me now. Finally, we who now have right standing can rejoice that we have been saved now that we have received reconciliation to God the Father.

 

 

Suzanne Sroka

When I was a child growing up in a Lutheran church, I had a connection with Jesus, not sure why or how that occurred, but I believed He existed. When I was young, I prayed to Jesus, but only when I needed something for someone. I didn’t really have a true relationship with Him because it was very one-sided. It wasn’t until I reached my greatest challenge in life, the loss of my husband, this is when my relationship with Jesus began to change. Jesus provided me connections with neighbors, who were believers, to provide me the love and care needed during my grieving period. Two years ago, I read the bible and through Bible Study, I realized how important my relationship is with Jesus. I think it was at this time l became a true Christian, I started to understand who God, Son of God, and the Holy Spirit was and how much I was loved. My love for Christ has evolved every day since, as He has become the most important thing in my life. One good thing about getting older is that you have an advantage of reflecting on your life and seeing how God’s plan for me has emerged over the years. The Holy Spirit nudged and pointed at me throughout my life; sometimes I listened and sometimes I didn’t. I always wanted to be in control of my decisions, but I realize now, Jesus was really guiding me through life; I just needed to take heed of His direction. I can see the results of the choices I made and the role the Lord played in those decisions. He never gave up on me over the years, so I have been blessed with a great life. Knowing God has my back gives me great comfort, confidence, and peace in my life. He has prepared me to be a better servant to Him, while I’m on earth. I am not worried about anything, as I know He watches over me. I know the Lord will welcome me into His new heaven and earth with open arms, so I might continue to serve Him. I love my new relationship with Jesus.

My favorite bible passages is Psalm 23: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul,” and also Psalm 91:1, 2 “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
