The Sarah Corner – “And Sarah laughed”

Farmer’s Dream
The school of agriculture's dean of admissions was interviewing a prospective student, "Why
have you chosen this career?" he asked. "I dream of making a million dollars in farming,
like my father," the student replied. “Your father made a million dollars in farming?"
echoed the dean much impressed. "No," replied the applicant. "But he always dreamed of it."

Today’s Sunday School Lesson

The Life of David
II Samuel 22: How to be Close to God
David gives us four truths about being close to God (from Charles Swindoll)
When times were tough, the Lord was his only security
When days were dark, the Lord was his only light
When his walk was weak, the Lord was his only strength
When his future was foggy, the Lord was His only hope

Today’s Sermon

Philippians 3:1-11
“One Thing, and One Thing Only”
The goal of every believer is to be the image of Christ in maturity; the image of Christ includes all the attributes of Christ including joy. “What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ.” (Phil. 3:8, NIV)
