e-note to LCC
Dear Friends,
This past week was an awesome week for the testimony for LCCers being God’s love with skin. I think the final total was 47 who showed up eager to serve at an elderly widow’s house in Euless to work hard for hours building, painting, and over a huge construction dumpster full of [...]

Dear Friends,
St. Francis of Assisi is credited with saying, “Preach the Gospel always, and when necessary use words.” I am not sure who said, “People don’t care how much you know, till they know how much you care.”, but it is true when it comes to sharing the Good News of Christ and [...]

Dear Friends,
I know there is a lot going on this time of year between kids sports, school ending, graduations happening, vacations coming, weddings planning, and summer cranking up. I hope you are taking time to chill and not getting too stressed over the details. A friend of mine passed from this world into [...]

Dear Friends,
Mother’s day, as usual, was a special and fun day at LCC. We dedicated a dozen children to the Lord as we prayed for them and their families. We prayed a blessing on the child and the family and a dedication of the LCC community of faith to come along side in helping to protect and [...]

Beginning this morning I am going to be teaching my church through the Gospel of Luke. Part of my fascination with this Gospel is that Luke was not a Jew. He is probably the only Gentile to contribute to the writings of the Word of God in the Bible.
To a Roman Gentile like Paul, the physicalness [...]

Dear Friends,
The way it works, at least for me, is that when I get ready to teach a topical study on Sunday mornings; a) I pray about a subject I think people would be interested in, is relevant to current life issues, or will help them biblically live their life better and get closer to God, [...]

Dear Friends,
My Life Group that meets on Sunday nights is studying the book of Acts. We just went through chapter one and the excitement of Jesus’ ascension into heaven. What would that have been like to be a disciple of Christ experiencing verse nine?
After saying this, he was taken up into a cloud [...]

Dear Friends,
On Tuesday night I was having a discussion about Communion with people in the LCC 101 Membership class. At LCC we do Communion (Lord’s Supper if you prefer) every first Sunday of the month. I love communion. With Communion, Jesus gives us such a great picture of the gift of His sacrifice, our hope for the [...]
