LEBANON CHRISTIAN CHURCH

JULY 9, 2025

Reflections- "Have faith in God, Jesus answered. Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, go throw yourself into the sea, and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."

-Mark 11:22-25

PASTOR 2 PERSON

Celebration! Join us after the worship service on July 20^th for a piece of cake as we celebrate paying off the church mortgage!

As I mentioned in last week's Lifeline Online, now that the mortgage is paid off (PRAISE GOD!) it is understandable that you may discontinue your offerings to the Build Up the Walls fund. However, if you decide to continue to give those offerings, you can simply add them in with your General Fund offerings. At this time, any offerings designated for Build Up The Walls or Building Fund will go into our Building Maintenace Fund.

THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH: THEN AND NOW series will continue this Sunday with the message: "The Power Principle." On the Day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples and the church was born. This Sunday's message will focus on the Holy Spirit and how he empowers the church. Pastor Francis Chan has written a book entitled, "Forgotten God: Reversing Our Tragic Neglect of the Holy Spirit." The Holy Spirit isn't spoken about as much as God the Father and Jesus are. Yet, he is the third person of the Godhead/Trinity. This Sunday we will look at who the Holy Spirit is and how he can empower the church and our individual lives.

Grace & Peace,

Dennis
