Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become
blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life (Philippians 2: 14 16a) The funny thing about studying the stars is that you have to be able to calculate, distances, luminosity, and many more fancy terms. Before I came to know Christ, all that nadir gazing did produce one substantial result in me: deep, deep emptiness. You cant help but feel how small you are when you peer into the infinite-seeming inkiness of space. The more you see how incomprehensibly expansive everything really is, the more you feel speck- like in the cosmic order. The weight of eternity came crashing in on me. And in that darkness, I needed light. This crooked depraved man groped about for anything that would shine, some embers of hope. Not finding them in philosophy, books or even astronomy, the pressure got worse. Of course I wouldnt have put it in those terms back then. At that point I just knew something was messed up, and I couldnt figure out what. I needed the word of life. But I didnt know where to find it. Thats where we Christians come in. The world needs to see the stars around them who shine through their Jesus emulating behavior. The light of Jesus has the power to both expose their blindness and help them see. So, shine. People like the old me is counting on it! (Copied) Roger

RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS
The word righteous, according to the dictionary, means acting in accord with divine or moral law. Self-righteous means being convinced of ones own righteousness, especially in contrast with the beliefs of others. Self-righteous people often ignore principles such as the Ten Commandments and act according to their own self-created standardor no standards at all. Self-righteousness is an attitude, as well, causing people to feel morally superior to others. The Bible says, Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people (Proverbs 14: 34, NRSV).

FROM THE PASTOR ANNOUNCEMENTS AND INFORMATION July 20, 2014 April 8, 2012 Todays toy is the Crayon. God created people of different color and languages to help us spread throughout the world, but more often than not, we let color divide us. In spite of our differences, we all share the same Creator. God wants us to love our neighbor, and our neighbor is anyone and everyone, no matter who they are or what color they are. He answered, Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and, Love your neighbor as yourself. Luke 10:27. Thank You for supporting the Russellville Church of God Childrens Ministries.
Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of Gods grace. And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of Gods grace

Pastor Jonathons Word of The Week In Joshua 1: 9, God clearly instructs us to remember the importance of staying strong when going into battle. In fact, He commands us to be: Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.
You need to find a deep dependence to follow after God Himself. Let Him take your hand and Stand with you. From that cracked open-heart, a God-breathed strength will rise and help you to declare to Satan, You picked the wrong one to mess with this time. Dear Lord, Im asking for your strength to fill me and my weak places today. Facing these difficult moments are sometimes crippling, but I know I can overcome all things through Your power within me. Help me to see this hard time as an opportunity to grow closer to you. In Jesus Name, Amen! (Copied)
