Michael Dunn Valentine's Day Party

Get this party started! Roane Church had an absolute blast at the Michael Dunn Center Valentine dance. We love being involved with things that matter, and in Roane County, the MDC matters. There was no holding back when the music started playing. The happiness on the faces was contagious. Not only was this a dance but it was also a pep-rally for the Roane County Chargers which is MDC’s basketball team. I hope you enjoy the pics.

Philippians

This past Sunday we talked about “status”. It has the possibility to consume us whether we are just beginning up the ladder of success or during these difficult days, we are simply trying not to fall off the ladder that we have worked so hard to climb. Either way it seems to affect focus on self rather than others. This is probably the reason that there are so many discouraging things that happen in our families or even in church. We are so busy with the wrong focus. I desire to be a person who considers others first, and I am thankful for what we are learning through Philippians. Such as the key verse in 1:27, “Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ”, there are a whole lot of “whatever happens”, it seems today, and we can learn together what God has in store for our lives. No matter where you have been or what has happened in the past, God has a plan for your life. Let’s learn together how to focus on something bigger than ourselves or our circumstances.
