The Passion Reading

It's Thursday morning, I'm listening to Jerry read in 2 Samuel. As I sit and listen to him, I can't help reflect on his journey and the journey of all the people who have participated in The Passion Reading (we are reading the Bible from Genesis to Revelation continually-we started Wednesday at 9am).

It makes the Bible come alive for me. God's purposes, love, grace, love, provision, discipline, love, mercy, and love have moved greatly in these people. They might not see it, but I do. I am grateful for them and encouraged by them as they read.

When God's Word is spoken, mighty things happen. I imagine some of these words being read from the Bible, have for the first time been spoken outloud in our church. We are trusting His Word that it does not return void.

God is doing some amazing things here at Whipple Creek and in Clark County! We are very excited this week as we prepare ourselves for the celebration of Easter. Here are somethings we'll be doing to engage our community. If you are in Vancouver, feel free to jump in. If you aren't in our vicinity, we ask that you pray for us as we try to make Jesus famous for the right reasons in Clark County.

We will be living streaming the Passion Reading starting at 9:00am Wednesday morning continuing until it has been completly read. 

Monday: 6pm-9:00pm Upper Room open for Prayer. You can have private prayer time with God or have someone prayer with you. Prayer intercessors will be available. The Upper Room will be open and available anytime the church is open.
