Over the past few weeks, we've looked at popular "controversial" topics: politics and money. This week, we tackle another controversial topic, though it's not one that garners much attention or conversation: obedience. That is, what does it mean for us as followers of Jesus to follow Him obediently? Why does the world attach such negative meaning to the concept of obedience, and should we be wary of Jesus' call on our lives to be obedient when instead we can do what we want when we want? Let's explore why Jesus deserves our unreserved obedience as we seek to follow Him and share His love and power with others.

This morning we welcome Pastor Paul Short to speak about Food For The Poor, a ministry providing direct relief to the poor throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. Pastor Short will share personal witness about Food For The Poor’s mission to care for the destitute as a means of living out the Gospel mandate to love one another.
Pastor Short was born and raised in Katy, TX. He served in the US Air Force for four years. He graduated from the University of Houston in 1970 and from Concordia Theological Seminary in 1974. He has served seven parishes in 40 years of ministry with the most recent being St. Andrew Lutheran Church in Cape Girardeau, MO.
Welcome to Pastor Short and to all who worship with us today!
Whether in Ancient Rome or modern-day Washington, D. C., there are a people who teach riot and rebellion in the name of Jesus. They would have us believe that the Christian thing to do is to disobey the law, rebel against the authorities, and permit every person to that which is right in their own eyes. In this timeless passage from Romans 13, the apostle Paul refutes this position, giving at least four reasons why the Christian subjects him or herself to the laws of the Caesar (government). Let’s discover this morning what it means for us to be citizens of heaven but subject of the State.
Welcome to all who worship with us today!
