Change

Change. The very word causes some people to break out in a cold sweat. Yet change is a part of life.

While it is true that we serve an unchanging God who is the same yesterday, today and forever, this same God has made things to change. The seasons are a great example. Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer (actually for most of my life living in South Florida, I thought there was only one season). There are many examples of change. If you don't believe that everything changes, pull out your High School yearbook and look at your picture!

At Foothills Community Church we have always embraced change. In a lot of ways change has been a great friend rather than a foe. Our vision has never changed. Our pursuit of God has never changed. Out heart to reach lost people has never changed, but many of the methods have changed over the last 10 years.

As we get ready to begin a new season at Foothills (moving into a new building), we are once again facing change. In my view it will be a wonderful change. Yes, there will be the chaos associated with the initial newness of change, but overall it's going to be great. With this new change there are going to be challenges, but if we approach this with a willing heart and an open mind, it will be fine.

Later this month I am going to spend a couple of weeks helping us prepare for the new changes with a message series called, "Crossing Jordan." Until then, we're going to need a lot of help coordinating the move. So if you have some free time around the beginning of July, let us know.
