This Sunday begins our Gospel Meeting here at the Waverly Church of Christ. We welcome you to join us in person each time that we meet. This year our theme, “Encouragement” will be spoken from the stand 
point of being encouraged to Trust in God and live a life according to His Word. Brother David Sain from Fayetteville, TN will be with us as our speaker. He will bring God’s Word to us in such a way that will encourage all of us to do just that.
Sunday Morning Bible Class – Freedom (a study of the freedom we have in Christ – the freedom from the guilt of sin, and the freedom from the fear of tomorrow).
Sunday Morning A.M. Worship – The Righteous Shall Live (a study of the righteousness of God, in making it possible for us to become saved by grace, through faith).
Sunday Evening P.M. Worship – How Much More Now (a study of how God loved us enough to give Jesus to die for us, when we were sinners, and how much more he loves us now as his children – – giving the Christian confidence at the judgment).
Monday – Trusting God’s Promise ( a study of the way Christians should react to the troubles and trials of life – – trusting in God’s promise in 1 Corinthians10:13).
Tuesday – You Can Do This (although our talents and opportunities differ, the one thing EVERY Christian can do is be faithful; a study of what constitutes faithfulness).
Wednesday – When the Roll is Called (a study of The Book of Life – – the confidence in knowing that your name is in that book).
How many signs would have been sufficient for them to believe? Jesus had already performed a number of miracles there in Capernaum (i.e. a man in the synagogue with an unclean spirit (Mark 1), Peter’s mother-in-law (Mark 1), the sick and demon possessed (Mark 1), Centurion’s servant (Matt. 8)) What is necessary for us to believe?
To say that God's power is amazing is an understatement. Our words and mental capacities can not fathom the power of our Creator. By just reading through the Bible it…
If Jesus was to appear today, which group would you be apart of? The group that would bow down and praise Him or the group that would want to crucify Him?
The apostle John wrote in 1 John 4:18, “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.”
As we talk about being the hands of Jesus, someone might be misled to think that we intend for Christians to do the impossible. There were quite a bit of things Jesus did that we are not capable of doing.
We must seek to be gentle people, even in the most trying times. Not because we are weak or cowardly, but because we are humble, we have placed our strength under God's control.
Do we want Christ's gifts without the Cross? Do we seek to use Him instead of asking Him to use us as He sees fit? If He does not rule over all of my life then He is not truly my King.
The heart of Jesus will only begin to develop in our lives as the Holy Spirit causes His fruit to grow within us. Would you say that you are someone who is faithful? Can those around you depend on you, can they trust you, are you reliable? Would God consider you as someone who is faithful?
