Use What You've Got

Welcome to our 2014 Annual meeting and celebration. Before we take care of the more formal and legal matters as a church together, I want to briefly share with you what God laid on my heart for us this morning, as we stop and take stock in what God has brought us through this past year and what he seems to be leading us to this next year. If you have your Bibles with you turn to Mark 8.

Leading up to the opening of Chapter 8, Jesus is traveling about the towns and villages of Galilee. He's coaching and teaching his disciples and loving on the people he encounters or who come to him. A couple different times large crowds four and five thousand strong gather to hear him teach. This is the second of those occasions.
