This week at
Thirsty Thursdays - Young Adult Bible Study
"Don't push me cause I'm close to the edge
I'm trying not to lose my head
It's like a jungle sometimes it makes me wonder
how I keep from going under."
-The Message (Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, 1982)
Even though we witnessed Barak Obama make history, most of us still face the same challenges in our daily lives. Therefore, if you were close to the edge last week, you may still be close to the edge now. Without proper balance some of us will fall.
This week at Thirsty Thursdays we will introduce a series on work-life balance.
Join us as we preach and teach from the topic "Stressed, Pressed, But Still Blessed!" Praise and Worship begins at 6:45 p.m. in the Original Sanctuary, followed by Rejoice Choir Rehearsal at 8:15.
Rev. Jonathan V. Newton
Minister to Young Adults
