The Ridge

This past Sunday, we were blessed to hear from Pastor Adam Churchwell of the Valley Rescue Mission and worship with the men from Crossroads! Not only did we learn more about the incredible ways the Valley Rescue Mission serves our community, but we were also encouraged by a powerful message from God’s Word.

Together, we studied Luke 15 and were reminded that God’s love is constant, patient, and welcoming. He seeks after us and gives us opportunities to respond to His grace, yet He never forces us. Like the father in the parable of the prodigal son, God patiently waits for His children to return to Him.

We also reflected on the response of the older brother, whose bitterness made it difficult for him to celebrate his brother’s return. His example challenges us to guard our hearts against resentment and instead rejoice when the lost are found. May we always be quick to forgive, celebrate God’s redeeming work in others, and rejoice in the goodness of the Lord.

Thank you, Pastor Adam, for sharing both the ministry of the Valley Rescue Mission and this message with our church family!
