If you are a Christ follower you need to make a commitment today to be at your house of worship this Sunday. If you don't have a church home, you need to pray for God to lead you to the place He wants you to worship, connect and serve. #SundayMatters

God doesn’t rescue us out of His frustration with us or our situation. The Psalmist says He rescues us because He delights in us. If only we could comprehend His love for us!

[Pastor Steve Gaines @bellevuepastor]

Nothing wrong with letting your children play sports. But there is definitely something wrong with letting them miss church attendance multiple weeks out of the year in order to play sports. Dad’s and moms, seek first the Kingdom of God. Don’t lead your children away from Jesus.
