Pastor Chase Riebel continued his resurrection series with “Looking Forward to the Kingdom” from John 18:36. Christ said His kingdom was not of this world, we can only imagine what His Kingdom will be like.
Pastor Riebel spoke about some verses that were recorded in the front of a very old German Bible inherited by Danny Mattheis. Two of the verses were Judges 19:17 and Genesis 16:8. Both were referring to situations where people were questioned about where they had come from and where they were going.
Two interesting dates were also recorded. One was May 19, 1780, when New England experienced a “Dark Day” causing some to speculate that the world was ending. The other recorded date was Nov 13,1833. This date was another speculation on end times due to a spectacular meteor shower.
Darren McGhee’s communion meditation was “How Bright Are You?” from 1 John 1:5-10. God is light and in Him there is no darkness. A cave is dark and lonely until it is filled with light, then it is no longer dark but beautiful. It is the same with us when we walk in the light of Christ.
Brinley McGhee led worship service with the songs “I’ll Fly Away,” “Abide,” “Be Thou My Vision” and “The Blessing.” Mike and Isla Billings accompanied, with Ben and Ethan Prasko on keyboard and percussion.
