@kyleworley 1. Don’t give to the church. Give to God to honor Him through the church.
2. Sacrifice should be consistently applied to my giving
3. Liberal generosity is a mark of a Christian.
4. Generous giving is marked by how much you keep, not how much you give.
Throughout this winter storm the deacons of @fbcbelton have connected with widows, offered their homes for those without power, provided rides to help those in need, and supported community organizations.
Thank you deacons! We are grateful for you.
We will not have in person services and ministry activities tomorrow @fbcbelton. An online service will be available beginning at 8:30am on our website and YouTube. Stay safe and warm!
Thoughts on some reading over the last month (not a political post): the cause of Christ did not originate in, nor will it end with, America. Americans are not the salvation for the world. Americanism is not our message and will save no one. America is not the gospel!
Great news! Uzbekistan officially registered its 1st evangelical church. Honored to play a small role & many thanks to the Imams in the area who stood up for religious freedom for evangelical neighbors. Pictured is pastor Atamurat, the pastor with his family. #ReligiousFreedom
American evangelicals are prone to panic about the waning faith in our nation. But we forget America is not the center of Christianity. The center of Christianity is seated at the right hand of the Father, and of his kingdom there will be no end.

During our family worship time this morning:
My wife to our children: “How are we saved?”
My five year-old Catherine: “By staying indoors.”
