It is always refreshing to turn again to the Bible stories of Jesus’ life and ministry. As I was praying about what messages to preach for the next five weeks until Pastor Eric and the team return and are ready with their report, my mind and heart seemed drawn back to the gospel accounts of Jesus’ ministry and the basic truths of the Christian faith. So I have designed a message series for the remainder of August and early September called Essential Perspectives for Disciples. The messages will remind us of the basic outlooks that we need to be successful followers of Jesus. Most of the texts come from the Gospels.
