Sunday, October 12, 1997, Welcome was performed by Buddy Moore.
Choir sang "Rejoice, for the Steps" as call to worship. Melissa Holbrook
sang a special titled "People Get Ready, Jesus is Coming."
Pastor Max Rudd's sermon was titled "First Things First." Scripture
was from Revelation 2:1-10 and John 13:34-35. God's greatest com-
mandment was to LOVE. How is it that we who have all this, can be told
our message is guilt, fear and oppression. How can we hear the mes-
sage of love and translate it into other emotions. We should be doing!
the things that make people see that no one can love like we Christians
can love. Our love must be the central identifying force in our lives.
We should begin and end each day with the question "What can I do to
make you love one another more?"
Why are you serving Christ today? Is it because of your high morals?
For recognition? For pride or prestige? Or is it because of your love for
Jesus? Will you follow this command and love Him and your fellow
man?
A new sermon series begins next Sunday, "Who You Are When
Nobody's Watching." The eight week topic will be Character.
