Getting ready for church - A Tale of Three Kings

So...it's a new year and time for some changes.

What are the changes that you've resolved to make? What are the hopes and dreams that you have for the coming year?  What are you going to get done by God's grace and willing?

Lots of people do that.  Many people kick the new year off with resolutions, goals, and changes they want to make in their life.  In many ways they (you) want to transform your life in one way or another.  As you look forward to a new year what changes do you need and want to make in your life to live as God would have you live spiritually, emotionally, physically, even relationally?  In one week we're going to start a new series called SHIFT where we will discuss some of those little changes that God teaches us to make that will make a huge difference.

This week, however, we're asking the question: What must I keep in mind as I make my plans and move forward into the new year?  What do I have to remember?  Where must my faith be founded? Where must my heart be directed as we begin to follow through on our resolutions and make some of those small shifts that God teaches us to make?

Tomorrow, as we walk with the wise men, we will learn to understand what the wise men knew and believed AND what Herod knew but hated.  It's a tale of three kings: Matthew 3:1-17.

See you tomorrow!
