Check out Colossians 3:15-16 (NLT): “For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts.” He’s describing what happens every week here at Central. The message of Jesus is shared. We teach and counsel each other with wisdom from the word. We sing together. We express thankfulness together. That’s why we always say; keep coming back each week, every week. It’s not just church. It’s not just an event. It’s a place where you encounter the power and the presence of Jesus. It’s a place where you are together with others as a body, and you are an essential part. It’s a place where you are not merely encouraged and lifted up, but given riches than fill you up so you can pour out all week. You cannot miss church any more than you can miss a gas station or meal or that nightly charge on your phone. You miss this, and you miss out on connecting to God’s body. You miss out on what God wants to give you and what you can give others. So, start your week with us. You never know what the week will hold!
