Connections August 2020 edition

The Seven Deadly Sins:

Viruses of the Soul

From The Pastor

Dear Central Baptist Family,

We are living in very unusual days, to say the least. It seems the world around us has either stopped or is falling apart. Every institution from schools to our workplaces are struggling to find the best way to function in these bizarre times. Our churches are no exception.

There is one powerful truth that we as Christians can hold on to: God is still God and is on His throne. This current circumstance did not catch God by surprise, nor does it overwhelm Him. He is still at work bringing about His Kingdom’s purposes.

God Word assures us that “God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8:28). This verse gives us the confidence that God is at work bringing about good in the midst of these chaotic times. You and I are to trust Him and look for ways that He can use us even now.

Our church schedule is modified but we are still seeking to be as effective as possible. You will see in this newsletter that we are slowly (and as safely as possible) moving forward to reimplement programs and ministries.

We encourage you to join with us in person as your health and personal comfort levels will allow you. But if you can’t be with us in person stay united with us through our other connection points. And let us know if we can minister to you in any way.

Blessings!

Dr. Monty
