Bibles References:  Psalm 66:1-16, 2 Peter 2:9, 2 Corinthians 5:19-20 My Testimony.  There are two parts: 1)  The story of how I began my relationship with Jesus, with God. 2)  Message of what God did (universal) A person's story is persuasive "This is what the Lord did for me!"Example:  John 9:1-34; John 4, Acts 4:20 Paul tells his personal testimony at least six times.  Your testimony is personal it's true, you live it.  God has made YOU unique.  You live your testimony and its a part of you.

Bible references: John 17:18 Acts 2:41-47 Acts 2:44-45 Ephesians 4:11-16 Our Pastor will be sharing more about Church:  What are we to be?  What are we to do? once a month during this year.

Job says, Ï know that my Redeemer lives"..  Do you know this?  "As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives,          And at the last He will take His stand on the earth. "  Job 19:25 In tough times do we remember that our redeemer lives, and that we will yet see God?   We can hold onto the promises of God’s Word during the difficult times in our lives. It’s easy to become defensive or strike out with harsh words when we are under stress.   I know because I have done this. I have also had to live with the consequences of such actions – broken friendships, distrust of others because of their actions, being defensive about what I am doing or decisions I’ve made.   But hurting others with words doesn’t build people positively, it hurts and builds wall between people.   Job wanted God to answer him.   Plain and simple Job wanted God Himself to explain why he had to go through such dark times.    Job sought God during this time of great suffering and misery.   His friends
