Pray for Camp Compass!
We have 524 kids registered (and counting) for Camp Compass this coming week! Please be in prayer (and reminder your Life Group to be in prayer) for all the teachers, leaders, and student helpers this week. Also pray that the gospel will be clearly communicated and that all of these young souls will be made “wise for salvation” and some would come to a saving faith!
Reminder: Deacon Meeting
Mark your calendars! We will have our next Deacon meeting on August 23rd from 6-8pm. Dinner will be included. Please let Pastor Charlie know if you can’t make this meeting. It will be good to gather together as we all prepare for the kickoff of the Fall calendar just a few weeks later.
Sunday’s Sermon:
How Transformation Happens
1 Timothy 1:6-11
Review the four things we must guard against in point 2. Which of these things do you think you might be most prone to be tempted by? How can you specifically guard against that?
Read Colossians 3:20-23. What are some ways you may be tempted to focus on external regulations that can’t stop the indulgence of the flesh instead of focusing on your heart & your affections?
Read Luke 5:32 & Romans 5:6. What encouragement do you find in the good news that sinners and the ungodly are exactly the kind of people Christ died to save?
Read 2 Corinthians 3:18. How would you explain what is meant by “the glory of the Lord” to someone who was unfamiliar with that language? How should the regular rhythms of our Christian life (Bible reading, church, etc.) point us to the glory of God?
Think of an area you would like to grow in holiness. How is theology essential to growing there? In other words, what do you need to see about God that will lead to inside-out change?
