Journey On!
"For I am persuaded, that neither
death, nor life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor powers, nor things
present, nor things to come, Nor height,
nor depth, nor any other creature, shall
be able to separate us from the love of
God, which is in Christ Jesus our
Lord"
(Romans 8:38-39).
We
have a special guest writer for this
Newsletter!
For those of you who have been on a
Journey and seen the message
"Entertaining God" you have gotten a
taste of Doug Small's excitement and zeal
for the subject of prayer!
Well we are blessed to give you another
chance to hear his insights on the life
changing, kingdom altering topic of
prayer based on Hebrews 11:6.

"I did NOT want to go on a Journey, but
God didn't let that stop Him!"
This is a testimony, but it is also a
challenge. To each of us who wish we
could help draw others towards God's
love, for those of us who wonder if God
can use us, and if so, how? I hope this
testimony of God's grace will be a
blessing, an encouragement, and a
practical thought on how we can do
something for God's kingdom.

and to see how a simple, unimportant
person was heard by an almighty
God.
Last
newsletter I was really mean, (or really
nice depending on how you look at it),
and I didn’t finish the whole
study. But here we are again, and
if you're still interested you can read
the rest of my train of
thought.
We
started with a quiz, just to see how
much you knew about some important facts.
Then we went on to go through Ephesians
3:19 to try and figure out what
God wants us to know, and what the
results are. We left off after the
“Fullness of God” and wondering how we
get it. So
here is the next part!

Lights
for the Way
In
the quest for music that glorifies God
and draws our hearts closer to Him,
this CD is a treasure. With songs
of worship both new and old that
proclaim God's goodness, and our
dependence on Him, this collection will
bless you and your family.
This
is My Word, a song that
reminds us that God's word will never
return void. In
Christ Alone, a confirming
testimony that it is not we who do the
saving, but Christ. Jesus
I am Resting Resting, a song
that reminds us that we are not only
safe in Christ, but completely loved by
Him.
These and other songs make up a CD that
proclaims the power, and mercy of
God.
To see a list of the songs, and to hear
samples, go to our
web store.
This is the story
of a committed and faithful servant of
God who was willing to go against the
flow even to the point of giving up his
Olympic dream in order to follow his
convictions! Always kind and
thoughtful he showered others with love
and compassion even up to his death in
a Chinese concentration
camp.
If you want to be inspired by the life
of a humble, and yet truly mighty man
of God, here is a book that can do just
that.
To learn more about this item go to our
web
store.
For the beginning of our year, we have a
much more serious story to tell
you. But don't let its seriousness
rob you of the unbelievable evidence of
God's power and goodness even in the
midst of tragedy.
The person you are going to hear about is
a real person, the family, a real family,
I know that because I know
them. Take this to heart, and allow
God to use this story to make you more
aware of the needs of others, and more
willing to give yourself to show others
the love of Christ as He uses you to meet
those needs.
