The number one need and priority in everyone's life is to know the truth and the truth is the Gospel. We don't need any other marketing ploy to reach the lost, giving to the poor and serving others whilst good are yet not good enough...telling them about the Gospel is it! The power and might of the gospel is sufficient, if only we recognise and emphasise this enough.
Vision month continues on a personal level with a message specifically on your destiny. Pastor Richard defines “ministry” and how ministry, our purpose and destiny are interchangeable concepts.

This message will challenge you to think about the plans God has for you and where you are in the journey of your destiny. If you are unsure of God’s purpose for your life, this message will give you the tools to search deeper with God to discover what He longs for you to be and do.

This Sunday Pastor Richard Urbahn explores the concept of the eternal versus the temporal. He takes Hebrews 11 & 12:1 and asks how we can relate the heroes of the faith to the eternal plan God had for us individually, and as a church. Where do we fit in? What is God’s plan for my life? He goes on to explain that God does not make people without promise or purpose. Be encouraged to take 45 minutes out of your busy life to check where you sit in the Eternal Hall of Fame...by faith!
