New Creation“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away; behold, the new has come!" (2 Corinthians 5:17 )
Have you ever felt stuck in old habits or patterns that just don’t serve you anymore? If so, you’re not alone. Many people seek renewal and transformation in their lives. This brings us to a profound scripture that holds the key to a fresh start. This is exactly what the fresh start here at Beautiful Savior can bring! You are about to embark on a new chapter in the history of Beautiful Savior. Last Sunday at the congregational meeting I kind of gave a pep talk to everyone talking about this new transformation taking place with great excitement. It will continue as long as everyone maintains the joy of ministry and remain active in the life of this congregation... |
