Note to readers
Hello Text in Context readers (or reader):
As you might already know, we are launching the new Twelve Stones ministry at PRBC in September. So in an effort to get that up and running, over the next month I will be putting some blog thoughts on the 12 stones blog (more than I will here).
Please bookmark the twelve stones blog or add it to your blogroll and check there often for various discussions.

Thanks!

twelve stones
I'm looking forward to church this Sunday for a few reasons:
1. We are baptizing - seems we've been doing much of this lately and I can never get enough of that!
2. I am preaching on one of my favorite passages of Scripture: Joshua 4 and the twelve stones memorial.
3. We are having a family integrated service - the kids are staying in the whole service. We have special sermon notes for the kids that coordinate with my sermon. Word searches, decoders, puzzles, key words, and more that will lead them to the main points of my sermon. We also have some cool things in the service that are still a secret. I can' wait!
4. But I can share one secret: during the end of my sermon I will be casting the vision for our new Twelve Stones ministry. This is a family integrated and multi-generational ministry that PRBC will begin Wednesday nights in September. We have been overhauling my job description so that I can fully devote my time to this new ministry. This is going to be a big deal. We have a site set up for Twelve Stones that will be used to store our multimedia and info and more.
I encourage you to go to the 12 Stones site and read around and bookmark it. It is new, but much more will be coming.

The Mission
2 Tim 4:1-4
I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths.
