How should you give?
For the Lord loveth a cheerful giver
Why should you give?
It is more blessed to give than to recieve
Give and it shall be given unto you; good measure pressed
down, shaken together and running over.
What should you give?
Wherein have we robbed you? In TITHES and OFFERING
What can you expect from the Lord?
Prove Me! If I will not open you the windows of heaven
and pour you out a blessing that shall not be room enough
to recieve it.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY !

   Let me take this opportunity to thank the entire membership of Hopewell.  The world around us is rapidly changing its view of Christianity.  Often times, there are negative headlines concerning religious organizations.  We must remember that we are a part of an organism (the Church) and not an organization, and that we represent Christ. We must remain committed to Christ and each other.  God is calling Hopewell to provide hope for our children, our community, and our city.  As we respond to God’s call, God will bless each and every one of us.  It is imperative that we place God’s word and vision as our number one priority.  The Bible declares: 

This verse gives us a two fold challenge. First we must be motivated to do that which brings glory to His name and secondly we must rely on God’s amazing grace and compassion which can only be found in Christ.  I recently preached a sermon entitled “Walk with Me”, which main thesis evolved around the fact, that we can not let anything stop us from “Pressing toward the mark of the high calling of God”.  So let us walk together with God as we reach toward our purpose for the furtherance of God's kingdom.

Only What You Do For Christ Will Last
