Hope Happenings

Week of November 4, 2018


I’m sure that many of us have had a splinter at one time or another. I hated splinters as a child. They were painful, and even though I knew a splinter would have to come out or it would become infected, I was resistant. At the same time, if my younger sister got a splinter I would be the first to encourage her to remove it. We can be the same way with our sin. Our sin is painful to remove, we can make excuses, or hide it in dark corners, all the while “helping” others with their sin.

Come and join us at Hope Church this Sunday as we study Christ’s words together!
Blessings - Pastor Nate Roschen
