I hope you all enjoyed Sunday’s lesson as much as I enjoyed preparing it. I think that it very much reinforced the notion in our Sunday school lesson that we all can learn a great deal more from the details of the Bible stories that we learned as children; now that we are mature Christian adults. The story about the Sheep Gate was the passage that Brother JJ so enthusiastically preached on last Sunday. So, I believe we have some more positive reinforcement there.
Is your life the Overflowing and abundant life in Christ that would lead others to the door?
Have you ever thought about what you will say when God opens up a door for you with your neighbor or co-worker?
Don’t miss out next week (same time, same station, same place) as we continue to study on our journey with the family of God at Tammany Oaks.
