Church

Be a Jedi Christian!
We must be prepared — we must be equipped, armed. Every day we wrestle against “The Empire” — Satan and his Imperial Forces.
But we need not fear! The “Force” (Jesus) not only is close to us, He is here to help us. All we need do is call on Him.
There are parallels between Jedi warriors and Christians.

Several years ago I began a column: “The other day a co-worker posted on Facebook that it had been the ‘week from hell.’
“We had all felt it. It was as if a black cloud hovered over us, raining down all kinds of bad. We had made mistakes. Tempers flared. Fingers pointed.
“Cranky people called, which didn’t help our own crankiness. We scowled. We sulked. We wished we were anywhere but here.
“It was one B-A-D week.”
That could be said of the past several weeks, locally and globally.

CITY ON A HILL
Just a reminder that City on a Hill Church is no longer meeting at the old Berry Lumber Co. Building. We are now holding services every Sunday in the Community room at the Cynthiana-Harrison County Public Library.
Connect time is 9-9:45 a.m. for some recreation and Bible Study for our youth with the youth Pastor. Adults will also meet for fellowship in the community room at these times. Service will begin at 10 a.m. with live worship. Come as you are and worship with us.

There is a hymn that says, “I have decided to follow Jesus, no turning back.” I remember that song at an early age, when as a preteen “I made a decision to follow Jesus.” But at that time in my life, what stuck out the most was “the no turning back.”
I accepted Jesus at church camp. I was away from my very dysfunctional and abusive home, and believed this decision was not going to take me back to those circumstances. If Jesus cared enough to save my soul, then I just knew he would save me from “going back.”
