Welcome From the Pastor
I want to welcome you to our web site.
It is a pleasure to introduce you to the Sherman Church of the Nazarene. As you may have already read, our desire is to Seek God’s Heart. That is, to seek to know Him not just with head knowledge but to experience Him and what He really cares about. It is not just seeking Him on Sunday morning or even a couple of times on Sunday, but we want to seek to know Him as a lifestyle. We do this as a group in Worship, in Small groups throughout the week, in daily personal bible study and in trying to always be aware that “God is already at work around us”, we just have to get involved in what he is already doing.
But this adventure is so great we don’t want to just experience it ourselves. We want others to experience what God can do in their lives by joining us in Seeking God’s Heart. It is our firm conviction that God wants to heal marriages and set people free from bad habits, but most of all that each one of is in need of forgiveness of sin. God wants to set us free from the guilt and the punishment of that sin as well as the power that it has over us. When we are set free, what joy that brings!
As we Seek God’s Heart and help others to find Him it is only natural that we will be His hands to serve those around us. Just as Jesus came to be a servant He calls us to be servants to each other and to the community around us (both local and around the world).
We are all at different stages on this journey of Seeking God. So, wherever you are, I am confident that you will fit right in as you join us on this journey. In coming as a new pastor I found a wonderful group of people and I am confident that you will find the same!
We look forward to meeting you or hearing from you!
