"Year in Review" - December

My favorite part of December wasn’t one event as much as it was watching your generosity displayed week after week. From resources for Help Stuff Hope at the beginning of the month to games and food for Sauls Homeless Shelter at the end of the month and all the gifts, shoes, cookies and wrapping paper in between, I love journeying beside you guys as we follow Jesus. My favorite entry came from December 4th...



Prepare

I am currently reading through 2 Timothy. I invite you to open your Bible and read along with me or find it online here.



2 Timothy 3

16 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.

17 God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.



Prepare. I love the way Warren Wiersbe summarizes verse 16 ... the Bible helps us know what is right, what is not right, how to get right, and how to stay right. This is why it is so important for us to be in God’s Word on a daily basis. More important than that, our knowledge must translate into action. Don’t stop studying God’s Word; but don’t stop there ... live God’s Word.
