From Pastor's Pulpit

Are you ready to give chase yet? Pastor has talked about chasing lions. He has challenged us to take risks and to seize opportunities. Sunday, he urged us to face our fears. Benaiah faced his fears as he chased that lion into a pit on a snowy day! A lion's roar can be heard over 20 miles...can you imagine the power and the volume of that roar in a pit?

God wants you to stand in the face of fear and chase that lion! Don't let the fear of failure or rejection stop you from seizing the opportunities God sets before you.

When we walk in courage and face our fears, we live our lives in such a way that it's worth telling stories about! Can you imagine the stories Benaiah told his children and grandchildren? The life God has planned for you is full of adventure and risk! He desires to use you to advance the Kingdom of God. He wants to work in you and through you in ways that you can't imagine! Take a risk, seize that opportunity, and face your fears!

Give chase today!! Be a lion chaser!!
