September/October 2018

“But if ... you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul.”

Deuteronomy 4:29 (NIV)

In the above verse Moses is instructing the Israelites to turn from idolatry and seek the Lord God, and you know something, that is not a bad suggestion for us even today! There are many things in our lives that are vying for our attention, and may I even say, our worship? I know that there are even days in my own life when I have to stop and ask myself, “Have I really thought about God today?” It is time we stop and think about “Who God really is!” “How do we picture God?” Most assuredly, our perceptions of God are inadequate at best and they can be completely erroneous and misleading at worst! But the Good News is that God wants us to know, “The Real God” and all we have to do, as the verse above suggests is “Seek Him!”

There is no greater pursuit in life than to have an accurate understanding of God and experience a life-giving relationship with Jesus Christ. Each one of us has been hard-wired with a desire and longing to know God. This is why during the months of September and October this year, the North Warren Presbyterian Church, Living on the Edge, and RightNow Ministries are joining forces to seek out, “The Real God!”

Starting on September 9th at 9:30 am, we will be going directly to the source, examining Scripture to see how God is revealed to us through God’s attributes. At every age level of our Sunday School program, in youth group, and in worship, we will be looking at God’s Goodness, Sovereignty, Holiness, Wisdom, Justice, Love, and Faithfulness. Families will be able to dig even deeper as you gather around God’s Word together through on-line content you can access free on your computer or mobile device. And at 10:00 am on Sunday, September 2nd we will be starting with a pre-series discussion of what motivates us in our relationships with God and other people.

So plan now to come with your whole family as we adventure together on this quest to discover, “The Real God!”

In the Name of Christ
