A couple of folks have asked about the message on eldership last Sunday. Did anything specific prompt it? Is something going on at LakeView? Short answer: no. Long answer: no. We have a great elder team and we’re doing really well together.
Our philosophy behind sermon series is not just to respond to current needs and issues (very important), but to also address issues that are important for our long-term health. Understanding what Scripture says about church leadership is pretty important for everyone in the church: elders, congregation, pastors, staff. Hope that clarification helps.
This Sunday we’re looking at being members together in the Body, another key topic. Then we jump right into ‘Mythbusters,’ which we’re praying will connect well with unchurched people, but also Christ-followers. After all, if we’re honest, most of us have questions about the faith, right? I sure do. And Peter tells us “always be prepared to give an account for the hope that you have” (1 Peter 3:15).
