Announcements & Connection Links 3/9/24
Dear TBC Family and Friends,
I appreciate all the great work going on to make basketball a real ministry to young people and their parents/grandparents/friends. Basketball has given an opportunity for a number of people to hear the gospel and to feel that they have a friend.
Tomorrow morning we will be looking at the story of the Good Samaritan. Jesus told this story in answer to the question, "What must I do to inherit eternal life?" His answer is not what we might expect, but it teaches volumes about how God thinks and how we can be more effective in reaching others with the gospel.
Tomorrow evening I want to pick back up on Romans 8:19-27. God has spoken to my heart through this passage, and I believe He will speak to yours. He lets "Creation" speak to us (it is really God speaking) to show us what really gives purpose in life and what destroys peace, hope and purpose. Please don't miss this series.
I love you all. - PR
