Church Family,

What a great first Sunday of 2021 as we dove back into Genesis!  I cannot think of a better way to begin our year together than singing God’s Word, praying God’s Word, reading God’s Word, and preaching God’s Word.  These are the things that will sustain us in the coming months as the long-term effects of 2020 become more obvious.  Genesis has provided us with so much to consider in terms of who we are, how the world works, the devastating effects of sin, and, more importantly, the Grace of God in His faithfulness.  This book has served us well and will continue to encourage us in the coming months.  Hang in there, Church Family, because God is more than faithful!

Desert Kids

The Leadership Team and I want to thank all the parents for your patience and support as we try to navigate what is best to ensure everyone’s safety.  With the surge of COVID numbers, we will wait two more weeks before starting Desert Kids.  Our tentative start date will be January 24 for 0-5-year-olds.

Bible Reading

One of our convictions here at Light in the Desert Church is that we are a people who are Bible-Believing.  Scripture is our authoritative guide for all we believe and do. It is the centerpiece of all our gatherings and drives our life together. Because of this core value, we make it a regular habit to teach through books of the Bible during our Sunday gathering and heavily encourage 1-1 Bible reading.  With the new year upon us, let me encourage you to pick a Bible reading plan (click here), then grab a faithful brother or sister, and read through the Bible during 2021.

 

Grace and Peace,

Pastor Bryan
