Calvin Meyer Leukemia Benefit @3 pm at the Comfort Inn & Suites in Burlington, IA.
Here are the handouts for Sunday.
Mothers, you want to feed your children good, wholesome food so they will be healthy, right?
Same thing with God’s word. Healthy (sound) doctrine means spiritually healthy children. This week we are going to look at maybe the best comfort food there is: contentment.
Basically, God says, “Live the life you have with honor in every respect and trust him to care for you.” This is sound doctrine. A good, healthy spiritual diet.
What happens when materialism chokes our perspective and “things” become too enticing? We have “a different doctrine” Paul says.
This different (unhealthy) doctrine creates a craving for controversy and quarrels about words, which produces:
Yuk! Not very tasty for the children of God. What we need is a good dose of godliness and we’re going to the kitchen to see what’s cooking.

Here is this week’s bulletin for May 11, 2014 – Mothers Day!
Hello Everyone,
Here is the bulletin for Sunday May 4, 2014.
Per my offer for suggestions as to message text or themes, we will be immersing ourselves in Isaiah 53 on Sunday. We will actually be looking at Isaiah 52:14-53:12 as another person asked if I would begin with the last two verses of Isaiah 52, so I did.
Sunday is communion so I thought Isaiah 53 would be very appropriate. The service is much different than normal as we will be reading Scripture and singing throughout, offering prayers of thanksgiving and proclamation, and Pastor Dave will weave his message throughout the entire service.
So we will have a very detailed order of service which I have included as an insert.
Here is my bulletin excerpt by way of explaining our service:

Hello All,
My, oh, my, what a beautiful day in the neighborhood!
The Apostle Paul tells us this in 2 Corinthians 10:5 …
Have you ever noticed how eager we are to examine and judge the thoughts, religions and philosophies of other people? Likely yes.
But have you ever noticed how reluctant we are to examine our own thoughts? Likely no. And why would we, I mean, we have all the answers, right? We are Christians and go to Bible-toting churches, we know we are right.
“Hmm … Examine my thoughts? Novel idea.”
As Lee Corso would say on an ESPN broadcast, “Not so fast, my friend!”
Unless and until we are willing to bring our thoughts to obedience before Christ, how can we even think about insisting that other people do this? But we do. We believe what we believe and don’t tell me differently.
So then are we sharing our stuff and calling it God’s stuff, or are we actually sharing the truth of God?
“Know thyself. Really?”
