    There is no pleasing some people. If they make up their minds not to put their trust in Jesus, any excuse will suffice to prevent commitment.

    THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD AND HUMAN RESPONSIBILITY. Matthew 11:16-30. A) The children were out playing on the streets. ‘Let’s play weddings,’ suggested the girls: but the boys would not. ‘Let’s play funerals,’ countered the boys: but the girls would not.

    Mission. God wants us to reach out to ALL people. Even the ones we think are not good enough for church. Who are not intelligent enough. Smell badly. Don't dress well. Drink too much alcohol or take too many drugs.

    He asked for alms and was given legs! Acts 3:1-10 Over the next few months we will hopefully have some mission events taking place in the church.
