Bible Bowl – Children’s Sabbath School Division

The Bible Bowl was an amazing experience for both the kids who participated, and their parents. Though our team didn’t win, the kids learned something that no person in this world can steal from them, the word of God and its teachings. We were exceedingly blessed to be a part of the competition and we thank the church for its support.

Missionary Mailmen – October 2014

Passing out GLOW Tracts is a great way to become more confident in sharing Jesus and Bible truth, start conversations with others about eternal issues and help people prepare for the return of Jesus!

A heartfelt thank you to our missionary mailmen! Here is the a list of our missionary mailmen for the month of October.

This Sabbath at Richardson (November 1) – New Series – Bible Heroes of Faith

This Sabbath (November 1) we begin a new two-month sermon series and Bible study adventure together titled Bible Heroes of Faith!

Hebrews 11 is known as the Faith Chapter in the Bible. It is filled with lessons on how to put faith into practice, and illustrated with stories from throughout the Bible. Your own faith will grow as you take this two-month Bible adventure!

Join us this Sabbath at Richardson (9am & 11:30am) as we begin our two month study of Hebrews 11, known as the Faith Chapter in the Bible with a study of Abel, the first martyr. What made God pleased with his offering but not his brothers? Feel free to invite friends.

Here are more tools to help us grow in our faith and confidence in our loving Creator & Savior.

“What an Opportunity!” by Ray Ljubisic

“Knock and the door will be open”.

Mark 16:15 (NIV)

15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation”.

The Gospel, the Everlasting Gospel, the good news of God’s everlasting free gift to all mankind; His son, Jesus Christ and Him crucified. How do we share this good news? How do we gain access to those who have yet to hear it in its beautiful fullness? I have been on many evangelistic committees and could not have dreamed of an opportunity such as this!

Every man needs a better man in his life and for me it is Earl Hack. Rarely does a Sabbath go by that our families don’t gather and share and rejoice over Jesus and His amazing love for us. It was on one of these Sabbath gatherings that Earl asked if I would be willing to share the book of Romans with his daughter Carol’s Sunday School class at the Richardson United Methodist Church. The class is a fairly good size class ranging between 70-100 people and consisting of SMU Theologians. Carol and her husband attend there and she was in charge of finding someone to present for a particular period of time during the year.

This Sabbath at Richardson (October 25) – The Lamb & His Bride (Love Stories of the Bible)

 

Have you ever been to a wedding where the bride was late? This was so common in one part of Brazil that the cathedral made plans to fine the bride $300 if she was late!

The biggest wedding in the history of the universe will take place soon, but the bride is already late! This Sabbath we will look at the wedding between the Lamb (Jesus) and His bride (His people) in the Book of Revelation. Why is the bride late and what can she do to not delay the wedding any longer?

Join us this Sabbath at Richardson (9am & 11:30am) as we look at the love story of Jesus and His people, and learn lessons that will help us see Jesus return soon. Feel free to invite friends. Here are more tools to help us distinguish between the joy of true love and pain of unhealthy lust.

This Sabbath at Richardson (October 4) – Solomon & His 1st Wife (Love Stories of the Bible)

By the end of his life King Solomon had 700 wives and 300 other lovers (1 Kings 11:1-4). But he didn’t start out so badly. In fact he started very well. There is evidence to show that for his first 20 years of marriage he was faithful to his 1st wife, a daughter of Pharaoh, king of Egypt. What lessons can we learn from their love story, found in the Bible’s Song of Solomon, that will strengthen our relationship with our friends, our spouse and our God?

During the months of September and October 2014 we are studying some of the love stories of the Bible and learning lessons for our own relationships. Join us this Sabbath at Richardson (9am & 11:30am) as we look at the love story of Solomon & his 1st wife, and learn lessons from someone who started right (but finished badly). We will also be experiencing the communion service together. Feel free to invite friends. Here are more tools to help us distinguish between the joy of true love and pain of unhealthy lust.

A heartfelt thank you to our missionary mailmen! Here is the a list of our missionary mailmen for the month of September.

This Sabbath at Richardson (September 27)-Isaac & Rebekah (Love Stories of the Bible)

 

If you are single, how do you find the right husband or wife? If your friend asks you for advice in finding the right person to marry what should you tell them? Does there need to be a certain type of “chemistry” for the relationship to work?

During the months of September and October 2014 we are studying some of the love stories of the Bible and learning lessons for our own relationships.

Join us this Sabbath at Richardson (9am & 11:30am) as we look at the love story of Isaac & Rebekah, and learn secrets for finding the right spouse or helping our friends find the right one. Whether single of married, you will love this message. Feel free to invite friends.

Here are more tools to help us distinguish between the joy of true love and pain of unhealthy lust.

This Sabbath at Richardson (September 20)- Adam & Eve (Love Stories of the Bible)

Love stories have a way of capturing our attention. We want to see how other relationships develop so we can learn how to enhance our own.

The Bible, just like the everyday life, is full of both love stories (e.g. Adam & Eve, Isaac & Rebekah, Solomon & his 1st wife, etc.) and lust stories (e.g. Esau & his 2 wives, Samson & his women, Herod & Herodias, etc.).

During the months of September and October 2014 we will be studying some of the love stories of the Bible and learning lessons for our own relationships. We will learn from the joy of healthy love and the pain of unhealthy love as we take this two-month study and Bible Bookmark adventure!

Join us this Sabbath at Richardson (9am & 11:30am) as we look at the love story of Adam & Eve, the first couple, and see the pattern for a happy marriage designed by God. Feel free to invite friends.

Here are more tools to help us distinguish between the joy of true love and pain of unhealthy lust.
