[letter] A Grateful Congregation

Real leadership has become as rare as common sense. This month is Pastor Appreciation Month. I have never known a Pastor more deserving of a congregation’s gratitude. Tim Davis leads Newville Church with the light of scripture at his feet every week.  We are a fortunate congregation in many ways. We are a church pillared by the sacrifice and handwork of our elder board. We are blessed to worship in the handsomest steepled-church tucking itself away in a valley, that can seem almost old-world picturesque. Still, our great strength is found in our Godly leadership. A leader that respects God’s people enough to tell them the truth and then drive them to his word for substantiation. Pastor Tim is a wonderful husband, father, doctor, pastor, mentor and friend.  Tim Davis is good man. And you have never read an understated sentence like the former.

The Great Divorce – Oct 28

“Therefore, you should pray like this:

Our Father in heaven, Your name be honored as holy. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.”

-Matthew 6:9-13-

“The Lord God said, “Since man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil, he must not reach out, take from the tree of life, eat, and live forever.” So the Lord God sent him away from the garden of Eden to work the ground from which he was taken. He drove man out and stationed the cherubim and the flaming, whirling sword east of the garden of Eden to guard the way to the tree of live.”

-Genesis 3:22-24-
