Study Week

This coming Sunday (2/8) we have the extreme privilege of hearing from Pastor Bill, who has given his life to preach the gospel to those on the Islands of Fiji. Global Passion Ministries have sent several teams to work with Pastor Bill in Fiji over the years. Every trip is marked by God's miraclous power and provision. Steve, president of GPM, approached me in early December about Pastor Bill coming to the States in February and would I desire to have Pastor Bill share a message from the Lord with Hillside - "absolutely!" We need to hear messages from people who are meeting with God and serving God-sized missions. I trust you will come expectent this Sunday; ready to recieve a powerful word from the Lord.

Study Week - I called this post study week because I have been deep in study; preparing for a new teaching series on 1 John. I am excited to start sharing with you next week (2/15) "The Tests of Life." John wrote this letter to the churches around Ephesus because they struggled with the all-important question: "How do I know that I am saved?"

John sets forth three tests to verify one's salvation - come learn and listen to the test of righteousness, love, and belief.
