Greetings New Hope Lutherans and Friends

New Week Message

Thanks to all for embracing a dynamic future for our beloved congregation. 

Example:  we established a “screen”?  in the front of our sanctuary, which really serves as a “ministry-illustrator”.  So rather than a screen, I suggest we call this a “ministry-illustrator”.  We show words for hymns, images, stories, announcements, and more on our illustrator.   Thus we make the WORD heard…by being seen.   Old saying; “A picture is worth 1,000 words.”  True!

We’re broadcasting services via YouTube which is an electronic media.  I personally appreciate this because my son and grandchildren in Mansfield Texas frequently watch.  I'm writing a series of articles on the History of Salvation.  Ten so far.  They’re published in our electronic webpage, which is “New Hope 915.”  Hundreds of people view our newsletter.  

Also, we’re connected by electrons to resources for music and liturgies.  I looked at a site  today which has an array of age old hymns and modern ones too. 

As I lead worship on 31 May, 7 and 14 June, I’m going to ask our worship team and the dedicated technical support to display some images and videos.  Feedback requested. 

Our mission is to baptize, teach and make disciples.  

Here we go!

The Unvarnished History of Salvation

New Essay #10 is live.

"Roman Versions of Salvation Encountered  Christianity.  Oooouch"

Greetings New Hope Lutherans and Friends 

For many years, I’ve been thinking about the history of “salvation” teachings in the Church, beginning amongst the first Christians.   So, I’ve decided to write a series of short essays.  Limited to 500 words each.  Easy reads...click on the button to begin :)
