Bring Good News

Posted on January 5, 2022January 11, 2022 by Central Christian Church

On Christmas Eve, we sang “O Holy Night” and in verse 3 proclaimed:

“Truly He taught us to love one another; His law is love and His gospel is peace. Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother, And in His name all oppression shall cease.”

We will now begin a yearlong (until Advent 2022 starts) exploration of and journey through the gospel according to Luke, in which Jesus quotes the prophet Isaiah and says: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor” (Luke 4:18).In 2022, let Jesus bring good news to you.

Worship is at 10:30 a.m. every Sunday (weather and Covid permitting).

On March 7 we will begin a new series called “The Walk: Five Essential Practices of the Christian Life,” based on the book by Adam Hamilton.

Please be sure to register for worship.

The five areas we’ll be exploring are:

Worship & Prayer
Study
Serving
Giving
Sharing

For our upcoming series “The Walk,” we want to hear about your faith journey. Please let us know as little or as much about your faith journey as you’d like. We’ll compile the stories into videos to share in worship.
