  • Thank you - To the men that will be serving in 2026 as our elected elders and assistant treasurer:
    Ron Anderson, Troy Bothwell, Alan Douglas, Kyle Lane, Matt Sutton as elders.  Randy Hicks as our Assistant Treasurer.  

  • Super Bowl - I purposely did not mention the Super Bowl yesterday.  Or, perhaps it was not purposely (?).   I frankly just don't find a football game that important in the scheme of God's Kingdom.   Yes, it is a big national, and even international event.  But, outside of trivia, the winner or loser of an NFL game really isn't that important to the majority of Americans.  A bit of regional celebration and excitement, yes.   
     Drake Maye, the Patriot's quarterback (on the losing team), was quite vocal in the weeks leading up to the game about his faith in Christ.  For all of eternity, those are the stories inside of this game that really matter.  What was made of Christ?  What was affirmed about Christ?  What was shown of true faith in Christ?  
     I'll be curious to hear from Drake more these coming weeks.   I'd like to know more about his faith and how solid it really is. Historically, we've heard a lot of "all glory to God" chants when teams win.   What about when they lose?  All glory should still  go to God as He is always all glorious.  

  • Sunday's message launched a new book for us as we began Haggai.  We traced the laying of the temple’s foundation in Ezra and the long discouragement that followed—internal grief, external opposition, fear dressed up as wisdom, and exhausting delay. Though the foundation was solid, the work stopped for sixteen years, not because God said “stop,” but because discouragement settled in. The call is simple: founded on Christ, God’s people must consider their ways and keep building, even when the work is discouraging, feels heavy, and is much unfinished.

  • Banquet.     Today is the final day to sign up for the Valentine's Banquet this Saturday night (6pm).   This is open to all SSB adults.  There is also childcare available and this event has NO cost.  You may register on the event page (CLICK HERE).     Or send a note to Whitney W or the SSB office.  

February 21st...

Join us NEXT Friday night...   6:30 - 9:30 pm

Friday night, February 20th is our next coffee night experience.  Who might you invite to this?  Come to hang out casually.  Come to listen to music.  Come to have a cup of "frilly" coffee.  Come to play a game.  Come to just visit.  Come.
