ThornCreek Church
LIFE B.C. :: 400 Years of Silence
How do you know what's right or wrong? Before Jesus was born, the answer to this question was not that clear. During the next four (4) weekends, we will be looking at life before Christ in the Old Testament. If Jesus hadn't entered our world, our spiritual life, the way we worship, the grace of God, and our relationship, would look drastically different! This is a great message series for the person who wants to prepare their hearts for Christmas! You will be encouraged, lifted up, and reminded of God's personal love for you. Our hope and prayer is...You will come to know Jesus Christ at a deeper experiential level. These will be relevant messages that you could apply on Monday!

ThornCreek Kids Ministry strives to walk alongside and equip parents to be spiritual leaders in their children’s lives. Our hope and prayer is that with a strong faith foundation, kids will make the decision to continue growing as Christians, and become Christ-like disciples.

Our age-level classes allow us to reach children at their developmental level, so that by God’s grace they will be able to comprehend to the best of their ability, the topics we are covering in church!

All Ministry Partners (over the age of 18) have passed background checks, and all Bridge Team members (6th-12th graders) are supervised by adults.

QUESTION:
What does your blank page look like?
God is working on your blank page. It’s that place where it feels like God is silent and circumstances don’t make sense. You can be confident that God is still God. God will walk with you in the in between of life.
“All of God’s saints, if allowed to live long enough, are led into the lonely, disorienting, weary wilderness. And while there, we lament. And since laments are often better sung than said, it’s always been the poets and songwriters who help us most.” - Jon Bloom
The timing of God is just as important as the purpose of God. - Anonymous
WHAT TO DO:
1. Trust God is leading even though He’s not speaking.
“Our challenge is to synchronize our faith with God’s schedule.” - Steven Furtick
Acts of the Apostles 1:6-7 NLT

2. God will show you the significance of the blank page...when He turns the page.
3. Don’t disconnect from God because nothing is happening.
“Don’t say God is silent when your bible is closed.” - Anonymous
