Love & Marriage Series Starts Sunday Night
Starting this Sunday evening, September 21 @ 6 pm, I am beginning a
new 4-part series called “Love & Marriage.” This message series is
designed to serve and strengthen marriages through God’s Word.
The series is for anyone. It is for those who are married, divorced and
remarried, engaged, newly married, single and looking to marry, or for
students who want to be married one day.
We will take the traditional wedding vows spoken in most ceremonies and
break each phrase down to discover the meaning it has from Scripture. It
is amazing how these vows have much deeper meaning than just pretty
words repeated at the altar of the church.
The goal is not to condemn or point out failures in anyone’s marriage. No marriage is perfect and no husband or wife has done everything right.
Instead the purpose of the series is to look to the Bible, and to God, who
designed marriage and gave us clear instructions on how to build strong,
healthy marriages that glorify Him.
Here are the message topics and Scripture passages for the series.
September 21 To Have and to Hold Genesis 2:20-25
September 28 For Better or Worse Matthew 19:1-10
October 5 In Sickness and in Health 1 Corinthians 7:1-5
October 19 To Love and to Cherish Ephesians 5:21-33
I do hope you will join us for these four Sunday nights together. I know
you will be encouraged.

From the Mailbox:
Dear Stanford Baptist Church Staff and Members,
A full month has passed since the tragic fire of August 6, 2014 that
destroyed the Lincoln County Public School District's Technology
Program offices; the Early Childhood Program offices/Stanford
Preschool/Early Head Start classrooms; the School Health office; and
much of the district's document storage space. The loss has been a
challenge for us in many differnt ways, but we want to pause at this time to
thank you for your act of kindness in response to this event. Because you
took the time to express your concern and provide us with meeting and
work space, we were omforted and able to continue our work. Thanks!
People like you really do make a difference in Lincoln County! We
are now ready to move beyond the loss to recovery, but we don't want to
ever forget that we are so bless to have support like you!
With heart-felt appreciation and respect,
Karen Hatter
Superintendent, Lincoln Co. Public Schools
Church Family,
Thank you for your kindness, Your warm and special thought...
There's just no way to measure all the pleasure that you've brought!
Also, thank you for your prayers, cards, visits and the beautiful
basket of mums.
Sincerely,
Betty McCall

Thanks to Becky Hacker for a great foot-tapping beginning to our service last Sunday. What a great way to start the service! Becky and Laura Lee did a beautiful job on "Here I Am to Worship" for our offertory. What a wonderful job the Adult Choir, with soloist Mike Tracy, did on "I Know I'm Going There". Thanks to ALL! Sunday night HIS HEART did a wonderful concert of Southern Gospel music. This Sunday George Munday will be playing our offertory. The Adult Choir will be singing a beautiful new anthem "The Gospel Changes Everything" with soloist Rachel Yaden.
Have a great week! Stuart
