Kings of the Summer :: Josiah

Don’t take a vacation from God! During these summer months, ThornCreek will be looking at the life of some amazing...and not so amazing...KINGS! You'll be encouraged that these kings were very “human”, and God used their life in spite of their flaws! You will also discover how God uses unfortunate circumstances all for His purpose. You will be encouraged.

TC Kids

ThornCreek Children’s Ministry strives to partner with families to raise children in the way of Jesus. It’s our goal for children to be transformed by the love of God, to grow in their walk with God, surrender their lives to God, and be a light in the world for others to know God in the same way.

Our curriculum takes the kids through the Bible in a year and they are invited into The Big God Story to experience it and discover who God is and how they fit into His plan!

We believe that parents have a huge impact on the faith of their children! Every Monday, parents are emailed a Family Bible Study that you can do throughout the week with your kids. We also have a repeating 6-week Spiritual Parenting small group that you can be a part of to learn more about raising your children to know God!

We have classes available each weekend for Infants through 6th grade. All volunteers have passed background checks and we have security procedures in place to create a safe environment for your kids.

TC Teens

TC Teens Ministry’s mission is to create a safe place for teenagers to encounter Jesus, to ask questions, and to experience the Love God has for them, while ultimately integrating them into the body and mission of Christ.

WEEKLY PROGRAMS
Youth Group | Thursdays 6pm-8pm @ Mountain States Baptist
Soul Fuel | Sundays 9:30am @ Prairie Hills Elementary School

Worship Service Info

Did you come with kids? | The teaching time in our Worship Center is designed for adults (Middle School and older). Children, 6th grade and younger, will be much more comfortable in our TC Kids Ministry which is designed just for them! There, your child will engage in age-appropriate teaching, games, music and more. You can check your child in for a TC Kids Ministry classroom at the check-in table located in the Lobby. If needed, the Lobby becomes our Cry Room for parents with infants during service. If you have further questions, please stop by the TC Kids Ministry check-in table in the Lobby today.

Volume | If you find the music too loud, please visit the Welcome Table for ear plugs. Ear plugs are also available at the Worship Center doors.

Prayer Requests | Prayer requests can be submitted via https://thorncreek.church/prayer-request. The TC Prayer Team would love to pray for your requests during the week. There are also TC Prayer Team members available to pray with you after service at the front of the Worship Center.

Distractions | To allow you and those around you to be more fully engaged in today’s service, please refrain from leaving the Worship Center during service. Also, please turn off or mute all cell phones and other mobile devices. Please use the Lobby area for any necessary conversations.
KING JOSIAH
Born: 648 BC
Reigned: 640 to 609 BC
Babylonian Exile: 586 BC
The MEN of Josiah’s life:
King Hezekiah - Good King (Great Grandfather)
King Manasseh - Evil King (Grandfather)
King Amon - Evil King (Father)
Josiah was born and raised in a culture of violence, idol worship, and...
- He was raised as an orphan without a father.
- All he knew was a negative environment.
- He did not grow up in a “Christian” home.
- It was not a God-fearing home.
- It was a home that embraced worshiping other gods.
- “Whatever feels good do it.”
You decide what kind of person you want to be. You are not destined to become the bad examples of your life. With God, you can set a new standard in your lifetime and set a new standard.
“A dusty bible leads to a dirty life.”- Anonymous

God never intended His word to sit on a shelf. God wants you to read it, meditate on it, and hide it, in your heart.
QUESTIONS:
How many of you have been a Christian for more than 40 years?
Can you quote one verse by memory for every year you’ve been a Christian?
“Never let good books take the place of the Bible. Drink from the Well, not from the streams that flow from the Well.”- Amy Carmichael
“One thing the Bible makes abundantly clear is that human beings with a stake in their self-centered lives are experts in fooling themselves.” - D. James Kennedy
“Some people claim they are troubled by parts of the Bible that they do not understand. What troubles me is the parts of the Bible that I understand only too well.” - Mark Twain
“The ultimate measure of all people is how they heed and hear God’s word.”- Paul Wendland
