Weekly Update

My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. (John 10:27)

The defining mark of a disciple of Jesus, according to Jesus, is that we listen to his voice, we know Him, and we follow Him.

The primary image that He gives us of what it looks like to follow Jesus is not that of a perfect route for us to follow, but of a Perfect Shepherd who will never leave you and never forsake you.

That’s what we talked about on Sunday. How can you pay attention to the guiding of the Holy Spirit in your life?

We shared an equation for discerning God’s guidance:

The Spirit of God (Holy Spirit) + The Word of God (Scripture) + The Family of God (Church) = Discernment

What a gift!

Do you need discernment? A big decision? Unsure what to do or where to go? Take a moment and send us your PRAYER REQUEST.

One final thought before some reminders: today is Veterans Day. We thank the women and men who have served our nation with courage and sacrifice. Thank God for the privilege to worship Jesus and proclaim the gospel freely. As disciples of Jesus, we are grateful for all who willingly serve others.

A FEW REMINDERS:
  1. Turkey Dinner! November 22nd. Following the worship service. Join us, and invite others to join you!
  2. GCN Leader Election. November 22nd. We will be electing board members, ministry leaders, resource leaders, and delegates to Mission Advance. Be praying over the future of leadership at GCN!
  3. Faith Promise. Our goal is $85,000 in Faith Promise Pledges. We have currently received $34,450 in pledges. So, plenty of room for more!

Much Love,

Pastor Brian
