Ask, Seek, Knock – Matthew 7:7-12

 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.  For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone?  Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?  If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!  So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.

Jesus Calms the Storm – Mark 4:35-41

That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.”  Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him.  A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped.  Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?”

 He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.

 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”

 They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”

The Wise and Foolish Builders – Matthew 7:24-27

“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.  The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.  But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.  The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”

It’s Monday morning!  Do you know where your children are?  If they’re at WinShape, according to the Daily Schedule, right now they’re in “Connectreation!”  Soon they will head off to “Team Time” which is kind of like Bible Study, but with a twist.  Today the campers are learning the TRUTH that God is Never-Changing!  Each day they will learn a new TRUTH about God.  If you get the opportunity to speak with a camper this week, ask them what they have been learning, and prepare to be amazed!

It’s time to run a new church directory! A sample of the new directory has been printed and is sitting on the desk in the office to give everyone a chance to review their information. If you see any changes that need to be made, please mark the corrections on the sample copy. The sample copy will stay on the desk for one month to give everyone a chance to see it. The new directory will be printed and made available at the end of August.

WINSHAPE CAMP 2019

The WinShape Foundation has returned to Enterprise and will be hosting another amazing week of camp starting tomorrow! Grayson, Emma, and Makayla will be attending as campers, and for the very first time Kendall will be attending as a volunteer. Please pray for the campers and volunteers as well as everyone who plays a part in this amazing program.

Here’s the scripture WinShape will be diving into this summer with the theme, Never-Changing!

“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat again the house; yet it did not fall, because it had its own foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat again the house and it fell with a great crash.” Matthew 7:24-27.
