What a great week to wrap up our study on the book of Colossians together! We celebrated 8 baptisms. That is 8 lives that are committed to being on mission with Jesus! Praise the Lord, for He is working among us and ahead of us. Next week, we will begin a new series called Hand Me Downs! Trust us, you won’t want to miss it!

Enjoy Session Two!This is a 6 week class that meets on Wednesday nights. Aaron Wheeler, our Small Group Minister, helps guide a conversation on why and how we share our faith with others.

If you would like to give go to www.chjoplin.org/give Pray: Sy gave four prayer prompts to pray through, examining what reality about your life today the Spirit is pulling back the facade on and revealing the reality of your faith. Which one challenged you the most? You are heading in the wrong direction. (Repent!) You are doing better than you think. (Hold On!) You are heading in the right direction. (Stay the Course!) You are doing worse than you think. (Wake Up!) Speak: Is there someone you know that needs to hear one of these messages from you? How can you speak truth into their lives to keep them from drifting from the right direction, from heading in the wrong direction, from not giving up or from gaining self awareness on a blind spot? Grow: Each letter to each church ends with John saying, "Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches." In order to grow, we must listen to others outside of us reveal to us areas where we are needing growth. Who are you listening to? Who are you asking about your blind spots? Love: Ephesus was condemned by forgetting her first love: i.e. Love of God and Love of Neighbor. Have you, in the midst of the business of life and faith and church, have you forgotten your first love, the basics of the faith? How can you recenter yourself on your first love this week?
