Prayer for A Pandemic

Why not start (or end) your day with this prayer?


Remember to always be thankful, no matter the circumstances.  And let us pray for those less fortunate, and ask God to show us how He can work through us to shine the Light of Christ.

Pray for the Persecuted Church

Image
Since early March, our Sunday worship experience has transitioned from the Greenway sanctuary to our homes.  Although I miss seeing my Greenway brothers and sisters, I do know that, in the not too distant future, we’ll again gather to worship at Greenway.    As I think about worship in the home setting, my thoughts turn to our brothers and sisters who secretly worship in their homes around the world.  Many of our international brothers and sisters worship in their homes because of the very real threat of violent persecution.  Unlike us, they do not know when, if ever, they will be able to publicly worship our Lord and Savior.   As I worship in my home, my thoughts and prayers gravitate to my international brothers and sisters in the persecuted church.     Matthew 5:10 - Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Thank you to Robert McKethan for this contribution!

Hymn Playlist

Hello Everyone - One of the things I enjoy most as your Worship Director is the opportunity to play for you.  I am always humbled when I hear folks say that they are able to worship, reflect, and connect with God through the music.  I know that for many, music can be one of the best ways to experience God and to worship Him. I am sharing below a few recordings that I did several years ago of some of my favorite hymns.  I hope to be able to make some new recordings to share soon, but in the meantime, I hope these may be a blessing to you. Don't forget to check back regularly on this blog, as we are adding lots of new content throughout the week! In Christ, Justin CLICK HERE to listen to the music.

Christmas Eve, 1968

Image
From Robert McKethan: "Earlier this week, I was reading and contemplating a devotion about Psalm 8.   The third verse describes God’s construction of the universe, “When I consider the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place…”  As, I read this verse, I was taken back to Christmas Eve, 1968.  On that date, American astronauts circled the moon for the first time.  Each of the three astronauts took turns reading from the first chapter of Genesis.  They also captured this iconic image, the earthrise above the moon’s horizon.  My thoughts then and now are:  Our creation did not occur as a result of some “big bang” event billions and billions of years ago.    Our God created the universe out of nothing…in six days .   Our God is a God of incomprehensibly awesome power and imagination. As you look at the earthrise image, read  Genesis 1 and  Psalm 8 .  I also encourage you to listen to the hymn,  How Great Thou Art ."
