Worship This Sunday: Football is not about eleven players standing in a circle and talking. The excitement starts when the team breaks from the huddle, gets to their positions, faces the opposition, and executes a play. We are all in the very real game of life. The outcome is eternally significant. Our opponent is real and he is ready to destroy our faith and the faith of everyone we love. Now is not the time for the Church, you and me, to sit back and hope for the best. It is time for Jesus’ disciples to get the game plan, get to our positions and confidently break the huddle trusting in God’s power and God’s blessing. Join us over the next few weeks as Jesus gives instructions to his disciples so they can live their faith with confidence. We worship at 10:00 AM at the Phi Delta Kappa Banquet Hall located at 11311 Phi Delt Way, Odessa, 33556. We plan to resume our live-streaming of worship this Sunday.
