I had to write a quick note (for any who read my blog from last Sunday) and say how refreshing the messages where today at church. The message for Sunday School expressed how it was okay to have patriotism in being "Baptist" but the title doesn't really matter before God. The guest speaker went on to point out that there are MANY other people in the world that are Bible believing Christians but don't claim the title "Baptist" and at the same time, people who call themselves "Baptist" but don't believe the Word of God. He pointed out that we need to focus on following the Word of God and fellowshipping with those who are doing the same.
Dima gave a sermon on being bold and stepping out of your comfort zone to share with those around you. He also commended the church for their effort to hold an outreach. He mentioned that it might not have turned out like they planned, but that it was the first step. He noted that a first step had to be taken in order for more growth and the success of future outreach into the community. And that those who participated, no doubt received a blessing from being involved.
I was pretty much pumped to hear these brothers share the same feelings I do! I'm exciting to see the growth that is going to continue to take place at our church "Transformation".

Sounds like you have a strong handle on the language. They say women always learn a language quicker than men. I gotta say that I'm jealous ! :)
What're you doing for Christmas ?
