Part 2 – We Need To Serve Again
From Series: "Daring to Start Again"
Across the pages of history, the church of Jesus Christ has thrived and advanced amid unpredictable and unprecedented times. The year 2020 has been one of those moments. Like the rest of the country, the normal rhythms and patterns of Sugar Creek have been interrupted by this pandemic. The Houston area has been one of the hot spots in our country. Yet, through all of this, we have seen God use our church to reach more families in our region through the online broadcast of our worship services. We have seen God bless our church as we have brought food for hungry and hope to the hurting. We are grateful for the opportunity to expand our borders through technology and we will continue to do so in the months and years ahead. But at the same time, we know that the church of Jesus was never meant to gather just online. So it is time to come back to in-person services. We need each other. We need to see each other. We need the fellowship and encouragement of being together again. We need to get back to serving our Lord and each other through the talents and abilities God has given to us. We need to be in the flesh for each other. Jesus told us to be the salt of the earth and His light to the world. He told us that we are His unstoppable church. It’s time to again be the visible church of Jesus Christ in this region.
