Unlimited Possibilities
Join us this Sunday for a special sermon by Barnarders Woods. His message will come form Mark 4: 35 – 41 35That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.” 36Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him. 37A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. 38Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?” 39He got up, rebuked the...

Word and deed are equally necessary, mutually interdependent and inseparable ministries, each carried out with the single purpose of the spread of the kingdom of God. You might call it necessary symbiosis of both ministries, what we do and say, but sometimes it is very hard to keep them in balance. Mercy (deed) and evangelism (word) is like smoke and fire – where one is, the other must be near. Join us this Sunday at Lakeview Community Church for the next message in the series by Pastor Paul Kozar called Hope: Before and After Heaven. Our reading this week will come from 1 Peter...

Join us this Sunday at Lakeview Community Church for the next message in the series by Pastor Paul Kozar called Hope: Before and After Heaven. Our reading this week comes from Psalm 41:1-2 1 Blessed is he who has regard...

Read MorePush The Button
This week we will be studying the parable of the good Samaritan itself. We are connecting the Gospel and the ministry of mercy, how we can’t do the one without having the other. Without the Gospel, we can’t do Christian ministries of mercy. Without the motivation of God’s mercy in what we do, we would become like a secular service organization. Join us this Sunday at Lakeview Community Church for the forth message in the series by Pastor Paul Kozar called Hope: Before and After Heaven. Our reading this Sunday will come from Luke 10: 25-37 25On one occasion an expert in the...
