Sermon Series ~ Hard Questions

March 17th Sermon:

There is only ONE God and he just has different names RIGHT?

The Bible says there is ONE God. But the Gods people talk about and believe in are so different. One is involved in everything. One never does anything but create what is. One only judges. Another only loves. Are they all the same and it doesn’t matter what we believe as long as we believe in God? Let’s see what the ONE and ONLY God is like and you can decide.

“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.”

(Deuteronomy 6:4)

“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. You shall have no other gods before me.”

(Exodus 20:1-3)

Pender Turning Point Youth Group

is putting on a Penny War

to raise money for the World Vision 30 Hour Famine!

Each high school represented in the youth group has their own jar in which to collect the money. The jar that ends up with the highest number of points wins, and the youth who participated in the famine from that school gets a prize!

How it works:

Pennies and paper money are positive points.

(For example a penny would be +1 point and a $5 bill would be +500 points)

All silver change is counted as negative points.

(So nickels are -5, dimes are -10, and quarters are -25.)

Put your pennies and paper money in your own high school’s jar!

Put silver change in your rival’s jar!

The jars will be out until the end of March.
