Abide in His Word

As we get ready to launch "Abide in His Word" ministries, why not look at a product we will use to help people focus on applying the Word of God to their lives- the SPAM can.

I've chosen the SPAM can because it's something everyone can readily get their hands on, and can be easily parked on your desk. After all, I've had one parked on my desk since 1995 (yes, the same can!- another story)

We can help people abide in His Word if we can get them to:

Survey the Word (We'll start by doing an overview of the the Bible in six weeks)
Post the Word (We'll give you principles and promises to post on sticky notes or cards)
Apply the Word (We'll help you act on God's principles and promises)
Monitor your actions (We'll help you keep track of the great things God does in you and through you- and even give you an opportunity to share if you would like)

It looks like we will be on at least three radio stations, and I will be teaching "live" at a Port St. John location Saturday nights, and a Titusville location Wednesday nights.

Please pray for us as we have a web site to put up (abideinhisword.org/.com), a radio show introduction to record (anyone?), materials to put together, and well, you get the idea. This daily devotion will part of this ministry, and will help you abide in His Word.

Thank you for your love, your prayers, your encouragement, and your support. This isn't just about you and me. This is about an opportunity to get little churched and unchurched to look at the Bible in a new way, as well as to help the very churched that have never seen how the stories of the Bible fit together in a big picture.

We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers, remembering without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father, knowing, beloved brethren, your election by God. For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance, as you know what kind of men we were among you for your sake. And you became followers of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit, so that you became examples to all in Macedonia and Achaia who believe. For from you the word of the Lord has sounded forth, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place. Your faith toward God has gone out, so that we do not need to say anything. For they themselves declare concerning us what manner of entry we had to you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come. (1Th 1:2-10)

Yours in Him,
Pastor B.
