On Sunday, we begin our 2014 worship at Eastgate, moving beyond the relaxing holidays and looking forward to a new year together. One of the things we will do is officially install all of the new officers, elected to serve the congregation in various capacities in the coming year, or in the case of new deacons and elders, the next two years.
Perhaps with the new year you've made a few resolutions of things to change or improve in your life. The first sermon series of the year is for you, offering some practical ways to improve your Christian faith and your life. Called "Tools for Living the Promises," it will cover six different things that can make a difference, including ways to approach sharing, prayer, and dealing with others.
This Sunday, we will revisit the story of the three magi bringing gifts for the infant messiah. Often, we overlook the challenges that these three people faced in order to actually lay eyes on the baby Jesus; in "Preparing with Role Play," we'll consider how they might have prepared to persevere and complete their journey. Their ability to keep their eyes on their goal, while being flexible, was a key part of their success. So, too, it is for us.
