Born to Be Wild

 FIRST CHRISTIAN WYLIE…WEEKEND UPDATE…

Sunday:   10:45 am –Born to be Wild                                                                     Acts 4:1-14                                                          
Bruce Moilan presents a challenging message from the book of Acts, encouraging us to be bold in living out and sharing our faith.  As Peter and John affirmed in response to being forbidden to speak of Jesus, “We cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.” (v. 20)

Sunday School 9:30 to 10:30 am –Kathy Hawkins will be back to continue the exploration of the dramatic stories from the book of Judges.  This book presents a number of cycles of rebellion, retribution, repentance and rest.

Plan to come and be blessed!

We livestream Sunday am services on the church’s Facebook page, including communion and worship music, and post each Sunday’s message on our website (www.fccwylie.org) on Sunday afternoons. 

 

When you enter the sanctuary Sunday, after you are given a bulletin, stop by the communion table where the offering plates are located in the rear of the worship center and pick up your disposable communion cup. Then following the service, please dispose of it in the trash can. (Mark 10:45)

Moses' Road Hazard

  Pastor’s Pen , Sunday:     Moses’ Road Hazards                                                      Numbers 11:24-12:16  SUNDAY SCHOOL HAS RESUMED-- 9:45 AM SUNDAY IN THE SANCTUARY! Bruce Moilan will be preaching next Sunday as we will be returning from the ABHE (Bible Colleges) Convention It used to be that when you bought tires, they came with a road hazard warranty. As a result, when you were exposed to risks on the road such as obstacles that caused attire to blow, insurance would cover the cost of replacement tire. One day several years ago I was taking my son to a meeting in Omaha from his home in Lincoln, and I ran across a muffler in the inside lane of Interstate 80. But when I made it to the tire store, I discovered, “no more road hazard warranty.” There are no road hazard warranties in the Christian life either.  But we can be sure we will encounter hazards along the road, just as Moses did on the road from Mount Sinai to the promised land. ******* Stewardship is an importa

Epaphras: Faithful Service

  Pastor’s Pen, This Sunday:  Epaphras: Faithful Service                                                                  Colossians 4:12, 13    I f someone were to ask you  to identify the most impactful servants of Christ, it is likely the names of Paul and Peter would come to mind. Certainly they and other members of the  apostles served our Lord faithfully.   However if you were to had the opportunity to ask the apostle Paul that question, I suspect he my name a man named Epaphras. A native of the city of Colossae,  Epaphras  likely played a key role in planting churches in Colossae, Laodicea and Hierapolis, the three key cities of the Lycus Valley in what today is Turkey.  After playing a key role in founding the churches there, he wound up spending time with Paul in Rome, where he was identified as a ”fellow prisoner.”  There is much to be learned from the life of this little-known New Testament saint.   *****   We appreciate those  who help sanitize our facilities for services e

Aquila and Priscilla: Family Ministry

  Pastor’s Pen, This Sunday: Aquila and Priscilla: Family Ministry                                                        Acts 18:1-28   Thanksgiving is typically a time when we gather together with family. We eat turkey, watch football, maybe take a nap. Family is important to us, and family is important to God. As we continue our series of biographical studies of Biblical characters, this weekend we will consider a family engaged in significant ministry, partnering with the apostle Paul to spread the Gospel throughout the world.  Their names: Aquila and Priscilla. As we consider the various facets of their ministry, let's think about how God may use our families and service to Him. ***** We appreciate those who help sanitize our facilities for services each Saturday morning in in in in in in in in in in in preparation for Sunday worship as well as those who make it possible for us to ‘live-stream’ on Facebook at 10:45 each Sunday morning, and to post each Sunday’s message
