The God Who Gave His Life Away

Published: Jan. 8, 2012, 10 a.m.

b'As WCC strives to be a missional church, one of the things we have been seeking to do is to send people "out" of the church to make an impact in the world. In 2012, we are going to focus on the "S" of the BLOSM: Service. I am excited to hear how, already, God has been challenging individuals in our church family to serve. One family organized meals for a family that lost everything at Christmas. Another family brought a Muslim student from Drake to join them for Christmas. And yet another family is caring for refugees by teaching English. The list goes on and on! I keep hearing story after story of people who are giving their lives away in service of others. For the next six weeks, on Sunday mornings, we will be focusing on a new sermon series: "Give Your Life Away." This first week stands as the foundation for the whole series. In short, we give our lives away to others because God gave his life away to us! Even as I write this email, I can\'t wait to deliver this first message. I love what God is doing in the lives of the people of WCC. And I can\'t wait to see you Sunday! P.Dave'
