Latest Pastor's Letter

Read Your Bible: The Truth Will Set You Free

So Jesus was saying . . . “If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” John 8:31-32

1. WHY WE READ GOD’S WORD. The truths in the Bible, inspired and revealed by the Holy Spirit, will bring us into the understanding of who God created each one of us to be. As we invest our time in reading the Scriptures, our minds get renewed and we trade in a smaller way of thinking for God’s amazing, big, beautiful, eternal thoughts!

2. WHEN TO READ THE WORD. Whenever you can. Read a Proverb or a chapter in the New Testament. Ponder a verse and let it become entrenched in your thinking. Listen to the Bible in the car, play it when you’re cleaning the kitchen, while you’re falling asleep – let it become a part of your world day and night (Psalm 1:2). If you haven’t read the Bible lately, read a few verses right now to push the reset button on your brain.

3. WHAT GOD’S WORD WILL DO FOR YOU. Faith is hearing what God has said and then believing Him enough to act on what He commanded. Where there is darkness, you can shine the eternal light of the Scriptures. Where there is sickness, you can take the promises of God and bring healing. Where there is despair, you can bring the Gospel and set captives free. With a humble heart, open the Bible and let it restore your mind, renew your vision, and awaken you concerning God’s purposes.

God bless you,
Pastor Jeff Perry
