Raising Expectations with Pastor Joe Schofield, Stefanie and Dr Craig Thayer, Dr Paul Hall, and Ron Greer Dear Friends, We will be celebrating Mother's Day, a beautiful and wonderful occasion indeed! Abraham Lincoln aptly stated, "No man is poor who has a godly mother!" As we ponder this profound statement, we are reminded of God's beautiful plan and design. As believers, we understand that a godly mother embodies the ‘Heart and Love of Christ' to her children. She remains cognizant of her influential role and responsibilities over their lives and futures, thus making sacrifices for their welfare without hesitation. This week, our team will share why we are grateful for our mothers and how God guided us through childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood because of them and our dads. We look forward to being together with you and encourage you to think about your mothers and how 20/20 hindsight and perhaps a great amount of personal growth in wisdom and your relationship with God may have given you a new appreciation and understanding of Lincoln's words! However, most important, a grateful and loving heart for all Jesus has done for you! You may have an opportunity to call in a say a few words about your special Mother! The Team! Pastor Joe Schofield, Dr. Paul Paul Hall, Stef Stefanie Shaw Thayer, Dr. Craig Craig Tank Thayer, Pastor Ron Ron Greer.

Raising Expectations with Pastor Joe Schofield, Stefanie and Dr Craig Thayer, Dr Paul Hall, and Ron Greer With Guest, Pastor Will Hobbs - A Call to Prayer During this Holiday Season Dear Friends, As you and our team prayerfully attend Christmas programs at church, family gatherings in homes, neighborhood walks to see Christmas lights and more, you will be in our prayers! As we said last week, Christmas is about the Greatest Gift ever given to the world. It's not just about decorations, lights, trees and gifts , but rather a reminder that no one is beyond Gods reach or love. The miracle and prayer stay with us always… now there's an expectaions raiser! For all God gave us at Christmas, I always think first of (simply put) two things… 1. He was born in a manger because there was no room for them anyplace in Bethlehem! One couple took pity on them and gave them their barn which was really a small cave where animals would sleep and take shelter. It was a dirty, disgusting and undesirable place. They laid Him in a manger there - a rough trough from which the animals ate their food. What a humbling setting… *but God had a reason, to show us that He always shows up in the most unlikely places. His love doesn't start at the top and work its way to the bottom…No His love starts at the very bottom and works its way up to the top! It's a beautiful story that reminds us that no one is beyond Gods reach and love! 2. Secondly, when God really wanted to express His level of love for us and desire to change us, to know us personally, *He Showed up in person! He said there is no place I won't go in order to find you and connect with you! Friends, Christmas is time to celebrate that Almighty God didn't forget us. He didn't send a book and say read this…no He showed up in person! So take Him out of the manger and receive Him into your heart by faith! Discover how He will show up for us everyday in every way for He is only a Prayer away! As the Great old hymn says; Oh how I love Jesus Oh how I love Jesus… Oh how I love Jesus Because He First loved me! Merry Christmas from myself and all your “ Raising Expectations “ team family

This week we had the great pleasure of speaking with Craig Thayer, M.D. Craig Thayer's destiny was mapped before he was even born. Being put up for adoption at birth and finding his family at nine months was just the start of his unorthodox journey. Craig Thayer battled a reading disorder that went undiagnosed until he was fifty-five years old. Despite that and numerous other challenges, the calling in his heart to become a surgeon grew louder and louder. It didn't quit when he suffered a twisted intestine, witnessed his adopted mother's alcohol problem, grieved her death when he was just eighteen, healed from a skull fracture in college, agonized over his adopted father's fight for his life, and struggled to find his self-esteem. Through adversity, he has become a well-respected surgeon, head of trauma, community leader, and forever a jokester. The miracles that touched his life were his saving grace and shined a light on his purpose. Craig Thayer's intent in sharing his stories are to give you hope, inspiration, a sense of belonging. His passion is to inspire and motivate others to live their life to the fullest. We are all more alike than we know. Find more about Craig and his book here!
