COVID-19 Message

Why do you guys still have a COVID-19 message?  Because someone might ask the same question and follow the link to this page. So what do we have to say about COVID over 4 years later?

Everything seems more difficult since COVID, but we do the difficult every day. The impossible takes a little longer but the Lord will accomplish his purposes through us.

Whether you thought COVID-19 was the worst plague ever or the biggest political coup ever, the church is still in the business of sharing the good news and making disciples. The world will be the world but we are called to call people into the Kingdom of God.

Our counsel here is simple. Use the sound mind that God gave us to make decisions concerning your health and the health of your family.

We know that by the blood of Jesus, we are healed, but we still take the time to make considered and sound choices about living in this world in the here and now. 

The short version is that COVID has no impact on our worship and service. Perhaps we learned a few lessons as a people that might serve us well going forward.

If you are sick, stay home.

If your kids are sick, don't send them to school or to church services.

It doesn't matter how many vaccines you take, only the blood of Jesus can vaccinate you from sin and death.

It's much easier to navigate a pandemic or plandemic if you already belong to and are active in a family of faith. 

We are dealing now with some unintended consequences of how to deal with COVID.

People have become used to being more distant.

Fewer people want to work to provide for their families.

We seem to double-check the toilet paper supply more often.

Some gravitate to the watch-at-home model for Sunday worship. Know that this is no substitute for gathering in the assembly as we have been cautioned not to cease. 

And some truth has been revealed about the education system in this nation.

People from all walks of life now know how to misuse the word mitigate. 

We have not educated people how to think and they are most vulnerable to accepting being told what to think.
