JUNE 2015 | VOLUME 15 | ISSUE 6 Devotion to the Least P erhaps the biggest difference between those experiencing Christianity as we read in the New Testament and what we often experience today is the level of devotion to Jesus and his plan for the local church. Acts 2:42 states it very simply, “They devoted themselves…” God stands as ready to work in our lives today as He did in their lives in Bible days. Jesus promised us abundant life in John 10:10. Are you experiencing the abundant life that he promised? If not, what is missing? How are we different than they were in New Testament days? They had marriage problems… money problems… health problems… family problems… political problems… categorically they had all the same problems we have. We have the same Jesus… the same Gospel… the same Holy Spirit – so what is the difference? “Could it be our level of devotion?” I could give you a bunch of synonyms for devotion, but you know what true devotion is. We see it (Resurrection—Continued on page 2) Thank You WOW Servants 2014-2015! On May 13th the Women of the Word (WOW) concluded another successful year in God’s Word. Fall attendance was 102 women with almost 20 children on average in childcare. Winter/Spring was 89 women with an average of 19 children in childcare. If that whets their appetite we will be back on Sept 9 and 10 with a full schedule of classes including one focused for our military gals and one for gals who prefer an evening class. The classes will be announced on our FB page near the end of August. As in every ministry, there are many hands and hearts that contribute to it’s success and the following workers gave of themselves so that we could minister to the women of 2760 North Heller Road Oak Harbor, WA 98277 FBC and the community: Greeters: Susan Cannon Nancy Condliff Marjorie Kott Alana Turner Room Set Up: Julie Fakkema Ron Wilhelm Beverage Prep & Food Set Up/Clean Up: Lauri Black Emmi Brigham Sue Boe Geno Dogans Rose Cindy Minich* Meredith Minich Deborah Rogers Gabriela & Anita Walter Childcare: Jessica Brady Ellie DuPont Geno Dogans Kayla MacIntyre Hannah Marth Meghan Newman Sarah Newman Sylvia Rice Kenyon Sirak Sue Watson* Ron Wilhelm Publicity: Lauri Black Beth Campbell Prayer: Judy Abbott Worship: Tordie Hayden Carolynn Kaetterhenry Marsha Kallander* Marjorie Kott Tammy Ostermann Brittany Rowan Brian Haynes-PPT set up Kirk Kallander- PPT slides Teachers: Carol Haines Ruth Hartman Carolynn Kaetterhenry Marsha Kallander Bev Miller Tammy Ostermann Gina Riffel* Brittany Rowan Lynn Adam-evening Patty Tracy-evening Substitute Teachers: Chris Lock DeLorean Zarraonandia Thanks to everyone for their hard work and commitment in serving. www.oakharborfamilybib le.org 1 (Resurrection—Continued from page 1) in actions. 1st century Christians believed the church of Jesus Christ was God’s plan and they were devoted to it as described in Acts 2:42: by Pastor Ron Lawler Because they were devoted to the church of Jesus Christ, participation in it held a priority in their lives. Because they were devoted to the church of Jesus, they were devoted to one another. Because they were devoted to the church of Jesus Christ, they were devoted to prayer. It can be surprisingly difficult to come to grips with our true level of devotion. Are we even aware of our true level of devotion? We like to think of ourselves as devoted to Jesus and his plan, but how devoted are we? How does one recognize true devotion? dexterity to arrange flowers for the church worship services. All too soon she could no longer even do that. Her husband fed, washed, clothed, and cared for her every need. When he was at work, he hired a nurse to take care of her during the day. His devotion to Jesus was expressed in his devotion to his wife. Her mobility left her so that she could not even roll over in bed. They ended up buying a special bed so she would not get sores. When she wanted to turn during the night, she would wake up her husband and he would turn her. He grew to so accustomed to turning her during the night that sometimes he would not even wake up when she prompted him. He would simply turn her in his sleep. I tried to be an encouragement to him, but frankly, I didn’t know how. I was always blown away by his constant devotion to his wife. She could meet none of his needs in her condition, but it did not matter to him. He was totally devoted to her.

After being A person can be truly devoted without forced to stop helping in AWANA and negative circumstances, but it is in Sunday School, she used her minimal negative circumstances that we can more easily see true devotion. Devotion is not so easily seen in my responses in easy settings. I may indeed be truly devoted, but I may also simply be doing what gets a good return for me. There is nothing wrong with being blessed as a result of our devotion. That is a gift from God. The simple difference is that what I do when things go well does not so clearly reveal true devotion. What we do under negative circumstances reveals true devotion! How we respond when we get nothing in return, reveals the level of our devotion. Just as in our homes and with our families, sometimes it is in God’s plan in the church that we minister in settings and with people from whom and in settings from which we get little sense of accomplishment. Sometimes we are simply filling a spot until God brings a person better equipped to address a particular need. It is in those days and weeks of faithful and perhaps dry service that devotion to Jesus shines brightly. Some reading this article express devotion under remarkably difficult circumstances in life. Whether your circumstances are negative or positive, devotion to Christ unleashes abundant life – more importantly it honors our Lord Jesus! According to Matthew 25:40, we express devotion to Jesus when we express it to even “the least of his brethren.” Has God given you an opportunity to express devotion to Him through devotion to one of the least? Certainly our first level or devotion to Jesus is expressed at home, but it is very rare that it is expressed solely at home. Where in God’s plan for the local church have you found an expression of devotion to Jesus? Look for those opportunities and be willing to minister to “the least of these” knowing that you are in fact ministering to Jesus! "Guilt is concerned with the past. Worry is concerned about the future.

T hank you to the congregation for the large donation to our missionaries at the April Missionary Conference! $15,000.00 was such a generous amount and such a blessing to the missionaries. The FBC Global Partners Council were also blessed by knowing their efforts toward a successful Conference were appreciated for the sake of the missionaries and glory to God. FIRST REPORT FROM THE TAMANG'S ABOUT THE EARTHQUAKE IN NEPAL Nicanor Tamang reported that tremors were felt in his area with no damage. He said that none of their relatives died but they suffered loss by way of property damage. There were deaths and injuries to Christians during a worship service. There was not yet much news of people in the interior or up the mountain at the time of his e-mail. Elizabeth said her mother and family and IN- Nepal staff were all safe. DONATION The FBC Global Partners council met in emergency session and voted to send $1000.00 to IN-Nepal for disaster relief to help people through the local churches there. The weekend before I attended 2760 North Heller Road Oak Harbor, WA 98277 www.oakharborfamilybib le.org 3 Why Are Christians Such Recently a friend of mine started living for the Lord. After a year of sharing his faith vocally, we had coffee and he told me something he found surprising. He said that in chess, the pawn pieces are used to advance the more important pieces. They go forward and sacrifice themselves to create opportunities for the Queen, King and Bishop. He thought of himself as a pawn, trying to actively serve the needs of others and serve the kingdom, clear that life isn’t about him. He said the biggest surprise though was that the more he served and lived a life for Christ, the more he felt attacked. But not by other people, by other Christians. He was confused because he’s never seen a King attack its own pawn in a game of chess. He’d never seen a Bishop take out its own pawn, but the more time he spent in church, the more he got attacked by the people who were supposed to be his fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. I started to think about that because it’s an issue I keep seeing come up. A pastor once said, “Nobody is as mean as Christians who are being mean for Jesus.” I also realized that in my own life I fear sharing difficult ideas less with non-Christians than I do with Christians. Of the two crowds, in the last four years, I’ve experienced much harsher hate from Christians than I have non-Christians. Why is that? Why does that happen? Why are we Christians the worst? Because we’re new. God is not done with us yet. Salvation is not the same thing as sanctification. We’re all just getting started. But when someone says they are a “Christian,” you don’t look at them 4 ? all new. We all have so much to By Jon learn. There is so much shaping that way. You tend to assume they will be grace-filled, love-driven, servant-minded beacons of awesomeness. That would be like asking someone who had taken karate for a year if they were a black belt. Or asking a first-year medical student if they were ready to do a heart transplant. And those are clear, tangible things that can be learned. Those aren’t matters of the soul. Those aren’t deep, dark mysterious matters of the heart. How long does soul transformation take? How long do you give that process? ahead. And when we step into culture and proclaim ourselves as Christians, we create the impression that we are finished. That we are no longer petty or spiteful or angry or jealous or gossipy. We are. We are jerks. But we are new. And we will ask forgiveness for the times when our hateful actions paint a false picture of a loving God. We don’t mean to, but people make so many mistakes when they are new. And we are still new. Most of us assume it happens the moment you become a Christian, but it doesn’t. We’ve got a long way to go. I’m sorry if you’ve had a horrible experience with a Christian. We don’t have a horrible God, but sometimes how I act would lead you to believe so. Why are Christians such jerks? He’s actually really loving. Because people are jerks. He’s crazy about you. And then they become Christians and become less of a jerk. And hopefully less of a jerk next year and the year after that and the year after that, as their minds are renewed. He’s got a wild, passionate heart. They aren’t perfect. Not even close. Despite a loud, clear call to love others, we mess that up. And then we ask for forgiveness and cling to the need we have for the Savior of a thousand second chances. And then we try again. Even for jerks like me. Jon Acuff is the New York Times Bestselling author of four books including his most recent, Start: Punch Fear in the Face, Escape Average & Do Work that Matters. Check out his blog at: http://stuffchristianslike.net/ or follow his Facebook page at https:// www.facebook.com/authorjonacuff How do we fix this problem? The horrible reputation Christians have the world over? I’m not sure, but I’m a pretty simple guy, so I do have one pretty simple idea. From here on out, when you meet people, tell them you are a “new Christian.” On your Twitter account the bio should read “new Christian.” In conversations, if someone asks, you are a “new Christian.” Don’t say, “Christian.” I want you to say “new Christian” because you are not done. Even if you’re 80, you have barely begun.

We have had a great year with Sunday school taking our time studying through Romans, and are now taking on the book of Acts. Youth group has seen some significant growth in numbers, some nights up to 36 youth, as well as spiritual growth. Students are taking on some worship planning and youth night organization as well as leading various aspects of youth group. This summer the Jr. High students will be looking deeply into James and the High school group will be going through the entire Bible by general sections: Pentateuch, History, poetry, prophets, gospels, epistles, and Revelation. We have two Bible studies going on during the week: Marcia Kallander and Carrie Potter meet a group of girls at Whidbey coffee on Friday’s and I meet with a group on Thursday nights. We have tackled many topics that impact the thinking and lives of our youth. For each topic ranging from social media and video games to pornography and sexuality issues we have looked at what the Bible says and how we should apply God’s word to them. tending, and look forward to our summer mission trip for about fifteen Sr. High students. This summer’s mission trip will be to Minneapolis, Minnesota with Youth works where we will tackle some urban mission and community services from youth camps, working with soup kitchens, to serving in retirement homes. We thank you for your continued support and prayers for the youth ministry. It is truly appreciated and needed. God bless.

Books will be on display in the lobby and available for purchase on Sundays, May 31st and June 7th. Book Clubs available this summer are: WEDNESDAY MORNINGS: Totally Desperate Mom by Wendy Hagen This fun and encouraging look at the life of a young mom starts at the initially delusion-filled journey into motherhood and progresses through the stark reality of parenting infants, toddlers and preschoolers. Totally Desperate Mom is a noholds- barred, comical look at motherhood from a mom in the trenches. All the while you are offered biblical encouragement and practical tips for taking care of yourself emotionally, physically, and spiritually, as well as how to keep your marriage on track. It’s time to laugh, feel refreshed, draw inspiration, and reflect on the gift of children. This Book Club will meet at Family Bible Church in room B3, Wednesday mornings from 9:30 to 11:30 (June 10 -August 12). The book is $10; Childcare is available for $5 for one child or $8 per family (paid weekly). 6 If you are a mom of a child of any age, and you know you don’t have time to read a book this summer, but you’d love two hours a week of grown -up conversation and no kids, this is the summer group for you. Are there ways to save time so you can put more of your focus on being the woman you were created to be? Are you pushing the “struggle bus” every day just to feel exhausted every evening? This class can help make your life a little easier and you can push that “struggle bus” off a cliff. We will be sharing tips and learning useful things to help us be the wives and moms God created us to be while making time to build our spiritual life. Come and learn what you were created to be while wearing all your different hats: mom, wife, daughter, sister, and friend. This Class will meet at Family Bible Church, Wednesday mornings from 9:30 to 11:30 (June 10 -August 12). There is no book to purchase for this class. Bring an empty journal or notebook, a pen or pencil, and a Bible (we can lend you one). Childcare is available for $5 for or $8 per family (paid weekly). Nancy Miles (360.675.4251) will lead this group. WEDNESDAY or THURSDAY EVENING: What’s So Amazing About Grace? by Philip Yancey As Christians we speak often of God’s grace. We know we are saved by His grace. But do we really understand it? Do we truly believe in it? Do we practice it? Most importantly do our lives proclaim it as powerfully as our words? True grace is shocking, at times even scandalous! It shakes our conventions with its insistence on getting close to sinners and touching them with mercy and hope. Grace does not excuse sin, but it treasures the sinner. In this book Yancey takes a probing look at grace: what it looks like…what it doesn’t look like… and why only Christians can, and must reveal the grace the world is searching for. There are two opportunities to be part of the this book club: Wednesday nights, 6:30-8:30 (June 10-August 12) at the home of Nancy Condliff (360.679.0710), lead by Lisa Stapert (360.675.4312), and Thursday nights, 6:30-8:30 (June 11-August13) at the home of Marjorie Kott (360.675.3146), lead by Cheryl Lawler (360.675.3653).
