Worship Guide
Dear Church Family,
Before every sermon I ask God to help me get out of the way so that His Word might be clearly heard, understood, and incorporated into our daily living. These are not simply words I utter out of habit. This prayer truly expresses the deepest desire of my heart, as I stand to speak for Him. It is therefore most thrilling for me to see so many of our Second Family members incorporating into their daily lives the biblical principles we discover week after week and becoming better equipped to reach non-believers in our culture with the good news of Jesus Christ.
We all know that one of the best ways we can impact our culture for Jesus, especially our surrounding community, is to serve as He served. If you are a guest with us today, let me assure you this truly is a loving and serving church. Our members faithfully minister through our mission centers, homeless shelters, pregnancy centers, prison ministries, support groups, nursing homes, as well as our ongoing programs such as SecondKids, Student Ministry, Men’s and Women’s Ministries, Prayer and Care, Worship and Music, Winning Walk, Sports and Fitness, and Bible Study, to name a few. Yes, the Second Family is making a difference on many fronts.
Therefore, you have been and will continue hearing about ways to get connected and involved at Second, especially through Serve Houston, various mission endeavors and trips, and special spring and summer programs and events. Members and guests alike, I trust you will continue to take advantage of the many opportunities afforded you to grow, get involved, and reach out. In so doing, you will discover the true joy that comes as the fruit of giving yourself away for the Lord.
His and yours,
Bless an Angel this Christmas season! Donate groceries, new toys (wrapped), and lightly worn clothing to the bins on your campus.
