THE END OF THE WORLD--Are You Ready?

Are you ready for the end of the world as we know it? Since 9/11 it has become clear we are vulnerable to sudden destruction. The lastest Hollywood offering, 2012, has got people thinking the end may be near. In Mark 13 Jesus talked about getting ready for those difficult end times. Today's message from Scotch Ridge will help prepare you. But first during our time of praise we sang "While We Are Waiting, Come" and "The King Is Coming."

Spiritual Innoculation

Have you received your spiritual innoculation yet? It will protect you from the soul infections and spiritual diseases of this world. In Matthew 12:28-34 a teacher of the law discovered how important this vaccine is from the Great Physician himself. But first, in our time of praise we sing "Draw Me Close to You" and "Just a Closer Walk with Thee."
