Pastor Chase Riebel’s sermon Sunday was “Watchman,” taken from Ezekiel chapter 3. In the Bible, a watchman usually positioned himself in a tall tower to scan the horizon for signs of danger, predators or sometimes rain. They had to be alert and also trustworthy. Today, parents need to be watchmen for their children over their school, social media and whatever needs they have. As Christians, we need to watch for spiritual threats and opportunities to share the Gospel.
Brant McGhee talked about ways to strengthen a marriage in his communion meditation.
