Happy Twenty-Fourth Sunday after Trinity as the seemingly endless Green Season draws to a close.
The AOC Sunday Report can be downloaded RIGHT HERE!
Things are a little bit different today, we have excellent sermons from Bishops Jerry, Roy and Jack, as well as Rev Bryan. We also have links to a two-part sermon from Bishop Jerry. I think that you'll really enjoy this if you take the time to listen:
Part One
Part Two
Bishop Jack brings the propers together today. His sermon is below the propers and can be viewed on video HERE -> https://youtu.be/MtEQRDsWSS0
The Collect, Epistle and Gospel tie together, laying out, detailing and reinforcing the same message, ultimately. We have to have faith in Christ and God, and be willing to accept the Holy Ghost into us, that through Him, we may do good works on Earth and that we will receive our just reward for doing what is right in the end. As always, Jesus proved the naysayers wrong. He gave a very practical demonstration that much is denied men, but though God all things are possible. I hope you find it useful.
There is always a lot going on in the world that requires your prayer, today is no exception. We asked you to take a look at the prayer list and at least spend a little time in prayer to help your fellow believers. Please start with Harper, Mr. Kim, Ditte, Tricia and Shamu, work out from there.
As we come up upon this Thanksgiving week, I ask you to give consideration to just precisely whom we are giving thanks for what we have? It is a real important question for you to answer. Are you giving thanks to some nameless being, just thanks in general or to God Himself? I believe it is fairly clear we should be giving thanks to God for all that we have been given and the opportunities before us.
Have an epic week,
Hap Arnold
