Circus Dreams VBS

Sunday we begin our 2011 Vacation Bible School. Every night we will have special performances by Jaime Zayas (from Puerto Rico), Vanessa Waggoner (from St.Louis) and our own Ben Christensen (from Willmar, MN).

Kids will be able to meet them in Kids Church this Sunday morning as we begin our pre-VBS stuff in Kids Church. Then, Sunday night, you may check in at 5:30. You do not have to wait until 6:00! Be there at 5:30.

Bring a friend! It's going to be a blast!

A Life of Worship

Worship is not just a "Sunday thing" but an "Life-thing." We choose to worship him daily. Romans 12:1 tells us that God calls us to give our whole lives to him as a "living sacrifice." (That's a good verse to read.)

Read Psalm 100. Also, 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 tells us what we should be doing.

Praise God today. Be a praiser and not a complainer!

Just a Minute!

Sorry that this blog is coming to you a bit later than I wanted.

I am at the Iowa District of the Assemblies of God Kids Camp this week. I tried to log on earlier in the week, but the computer did not cooperate! I tried and tried, and waited and waited. ...today I'm on a different computer.

Sometimes we need to "wait just a minute!" God has a different view of time than we do. With Him, a "thousand years is as a day."

Last Sunday we talked about that and also played some "Minute to Win It" games. In life, sometimes you only have just a minute to make a good decision, or make a poor decision. You have just a "minute to win it" or in that minute you may lose it!

Some guys had decisions to make "in a minute" in Luke 10:30-37. Take a minute to read about that in God's Word today!

You Want Me To Do What?!

Sometimes God asks us to do things that just don't seem to make sense. But, God's ways are not always the same as man's ways. Here's a few verses that show that:

Luke 6:27-36 & Matthew 10:38,39

God knows best! Remember Proverbs 3:5,6 and things will work out good if you obey God!

The Pledge of Allegiance

We had a great time in Kids Church on July 3rd. We talked about how God has blessed America, and that America should also bless God!

Here is one of my favorite videos for the Fourth of July. This old guy's name was Red Skelton. He's talking about the meaning of the pledge of allegiance here. Enjoy!
