Hello brothers and sisters,
My family and I are back in town, having arrived last night at midnight. This Sunday, my lesson at 10:00 will be on theology, the final installment in the series on Christian education. My sermon in the morning service will be on Matthew 27:45-66, “The Death of the Son of God.” My sermon in the evening service will be on 2 Samuel 17, “Ahithophel’s Counsel Defeated.”

Midweek Meeting
Our midweek meeting on Wednesdays at 7:00 pm will return to the Bringe home next Wednesday. Our current study is based on J. Gresham Machen’s book, The New Testament: An Introduction to Its Literature and History. This book is a survey of the New Testament and it is composed of short chapters that I read during our meeting, as well as study questions which we use for discussion.
