More than Words: Integrity


One of the calls of the Bible is to live lives of integrity. Such an integrity means that our actions reflect what our lips say. One of the proverbs of our day says it this way, "Put your money where your mouth is". We might revise that a bit and say "put your time where your mouth is". If we say that we are committed to God then we need to work to forward his kingdom with our time. We need to honor God with our time. Part of that honoring is giving ourselves in service to the bride of Christ, the church. As we continue our celebration series we are going to look at living lives of integrity before God by giving of our time. The text for the morning is from Proverbs 10.9 and Proverbs 20.6-7

Our service begins with a light hearted drama called "Born to Serve". We will move from there into a time of worship in song. After the announcements we are going to take some time to remember, on the Memorial day weekend, those who are serving in the armed forces. Prayer comes next followed by the message and then a closing song.

See you Sunday!

Just a reminder. The rough draft message (in text) is available for download on our website www.egm.org. The weekly dusty is also there. By the middle of June we will have on the download part of our site an mp3 of the message you can download.
