I Corinthians 3:16-17

We are the Temple of God, His precious Holy Spirit dwelling in us. I was reminded of that today, God is Amazing when i get quiet enough, God speaks...
Yesterday was a blast, I taught John 16:1-6 Jesus teaches on persecution, we had a amazing time. The study was kinda heavy but the hope was that Jesus has our back...in other words Jesus says that's My Bride! so He is there in every situation. Then after the teaching I felt the Lord say offer an invite to be my disciples... I was like no way after a teaching like persecution and such.. no one will respond. The Lord impressed me again so I said I challenge you to Join me up front if you want to be His disciple and follow God with all of your heart. All the church came forward and I was blown away... I didn't know what to do... So we all prayed a prayer of commitment to Him.. Awesome!
So later on that day I had a opportunity to play laser tag at Nathalies work.. Lot's of fun and a great work out, so I thought how cool if we could get the whole church to play on one Sunday afternoon, just to hang out, fellowship and get some exercise... I don't think we have any over competitors in our church ..do you (wink,wink) It will be fun...
Well don't forget we are in I Samuel 5 this Wednesday night, looking forward to what God wants to do...
God Bless
Love You

Last Night was Amazing!!

Hey all, last night church was simply amazing... I taught out of I Samuel 4 and the Lord showed up in a big way... The questions we asked ourselves were...
1. Are we clinging to shadows?- past experiences in our walks
2. Has the glory departed from our lives?
Both questions Israel had to ask as the Philistines slaughtered Israel where 34000 men died.. Hophni & Phinenas as well a Eli died... Phinenas wife died.. and the Ark was captured... What a great time in the word... Worship was amazing and I truly loved the sheep God has entrusted me with. Looking forward to this weekend.. we will be in John 16:1-6 Jesus promises we will be persecuted for our faith.. but... We are His Bride and nobody messes with His Bride..Amen...
Also don't forget that Big Daddy Weave will be in concert on Sunday Night at FUMC .
well better go for now...
Love you guys
Pastor Ben

What a great weekend

Wow, we just came back from our annual Pastor's & Leaders conference in Dallas, we had a great time and the Lord spoke to us concerning discouragement and fear. Then we went to see our youngest daughter in Oklahoma City and had a blast with her. We ate at a great Mexican place, had coffee and Starbucks a all around great time. Pastor Josh brought the teaching on Sunday from I John... came home late last night very exhausted... Praise the Lord on the saddle again and ready for what we need to do... Hey don't forget were in I Samuel 4 this Wednesday, come out for a great time of worship, word and fellowship...
God bless you and remember
I Love You.
