JANUARY 2016
Dear Church Family...
Happy New Year!
I love new beginnings. There’s nothing like having a fresh
start. The problem, however, is when we aren’t flexible
enough to allow God to do something new in us.
Jesus offered an analogy of this very truth. He said it was
like putting new wine in old wine skins (Matthew 9:17). Old
skins were brittle and inflexible. New skins were soft and
supple. As the wine fermented and released gas, the new skins could
expand while the old skins would rupture and destroy the contents and the
skin.
Craig Christina
Senior Pastor
Having new skin means being totally open to the Holy Spirit’s work of
stretching us in new ways. Remember, we are engaged in an eternal journey
of growth. Never let the words, “I can’t,” come out of your mouth. Instead
say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that” (James 4:15).
If we are not growing and stretching, we have lost our usefulness to the
Wine Maker (John 2:1-12). Decide today to let God do something new in you
in 2016. Your life will be expanded, and you will become a sweet savor to
Him.
Your servant in Christ,
Pastor Craig
