Howard Reiter gave the Communion meditation Always thankful at Sundays Carlyle Christian Church service.
We must remember to rejoice in the Lord regardless of what God gives or withholds, Reiter said. God stays the same, even when our circumstances change. Thankfulness needs to come from what is in our hearts, not in our hands.
Guest minister Sam Hershberger gave the sermon on the fifth week of our Overcomer series, You Declare.
When you declare something, you make it known, Hershberger said. God made it clear to Peter that his mercy and grace was for everyone… the Jews AND the Gentiles. God shows no favoritism. In every nation, God accepts those who fear Him and do right, and the Holy Spirit falls on those who listen.
