We had a little bit of winter today; some snow, a little ice, and cool at 32 degrees. The weather didn’t keep our monthly Preachers’ and Men’s Meeting from taking place here at Enola. We had the pleasure of hosting a meeting of area preachers, elders, deacons, and faithful Christian men in the central Arkansas area. Thank you to everyone who came out in the cold to share in a time of fellowship and Bible study. We had a great meeting. Next month (March) our meeting will be hosted by Brother Charles Bane and the Harding Street congregation in Morrilton on March 12th at 10:00 a.m. THANK YOU Enola ladies for providing lunch for us: beef stew, corn bread, and desserts. Mmmm! Thank you to Cindi, Beverly, and Sherry for your sacrifices in being present to serve.

This Sunday morning we will conclude our series “Seven Steps Out of a Rut.” Can you remember the steps? I hope these lessons have been encouraging and challenging to you. It has been a great pleasure to share the grace of Jesus Christ in these lessons. Sometimes we are not where we need to be in our lives. Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is the Way. He is the Truth. He is the Life. We can come to the Father by Him. Come on.

Step 1 – Take _______________ for your life
Step 2 – ___________ you can change
Step 3 – ___________ your needs

Step 5 – ___ _______________ bold and dramatic
Step 6 – Stop waiting for _________ circumstances
Step 7 – DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO NOW

Wednesday Evening at Enola at 7:00 is a very special time for the church. The adults are studying a series entitled “The Deep Things of God.” Last Wednesday we looked at the question “Does God Exist?” This week we will consider the question “Who is God?” Every member of the class is given a study sheet each week to take home and complete. We bring our completed study sheets back for some lively discussion. If you are not currently involved in a Bible study on Wednesday evenings, please make the short drive out to the country to Enola and meet with us. If you are not a member of the church of Christ it would be my pleasure to talk to you about the Lord’s church and how you too can have the salvation in Christ Jesus, the Son of God.
