With the plethora of self-serving agendas out there, as well as an equal or greater number of charlatans who are looking out for #1, and a boatload of mutually-exclusive ideologies all touting to be the final word, it&#8217;s getting more and more difficult to pick up a good religious book and feel good about it. We wonder if reading it will somehow make us better people?<\/p>\n<p>This Sunday, we begin our Fall sermon series. Our church motto throughout 2018 has been, &#8220;Digging Deeper \u2013 Beaming Brighter.&#8221; But this motto begs the question, \u201cDigging deeper into what?\u201d At our church, we believe the answer to this question is the Bible. And why? Because we believe that behind its 40+ human authors, the True Author is none other than God Himself; which explains why I have entitled this series, \u201cThe Book Above All Books.\u201d 19th century Secretary of State, Daniel Webster, captured this essence with these words: \u201cThe Bible fits man for life and prepares him for death.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Over the course of the next two months, we will address such key questions as, \u201cHow did God write the Bible?\u201d \u201cCan we trust the Bible?\u201d and \u201cHow do we interpret the Bible?\u201d In launching our sermon series this Sunday, we will begin with an overview: \u201cHow did we get our Bibles?\u201d a question that deals with the matter of Process. So please begin this new venture with us as we begin our study into \u201cThe Book Above All Books.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; We live in a day when it\u2019s impossible to believe everything we read.
