Dear Friends,

Matt Friend, Senior Pastor

@pastormattbcc

Welcome to Bible Center! Thanks for spending your Sunday morning with us.

This summer we’re praying through the Psalms as a church family. There’s still time to jump in! Pick up your free Summer in Psalms study guide at the Info Desk, or view it on our app. If you’re not sure where to start, simply begin in Psalm 1 today, and pray through one Psalm each day for the next 150 days.

How do we pray through a Psalm? I find it helpful to read a verse and pray about anything that comes to mind. Then I move on to the next line and do the same thing. This method allows you to continue praying until you run out of time or you run out of Psalm. If you don’t understand a particular verse...no worries. Simply move on to the next one.

We’ll always pray about the same old things (family, protection, direction, etc.), but this format allows us to pray in brand new ways about the same old things. God’s Word makes a great prayer guide!

This morning, I’m upstairs teaching two classes, but I’ve invited Mike Graham, our Pastor of Group Life, to speak from Psalm 33 on the beauty of God’s creation. Dr. Brian Plants, one of our Elders, will be tag-team-preaching with him since Dr. Plants is such an accomplished student of Creation.

May today’s service enlarge your view of God and deepen your faith!

With you for the Gospel and for the city,
