Song of the Week 2019 – #10 – “The Story Of Your Love”

The greatest story ever told is the story of the gospel - the Good News of Jesus Christ! So real and so powerful, it has been changing history, culture and lives for over 2000 years. So simple that children can understand it, be changed by it, and communicate it! Its message has been talked about, taught, preached, prayed, and sung. Here I have the joy of sharing in it with children from my church, Christian Assembly. (http://cachurch.com)

This filming was so full of fun and joy, as it should be since we are declaring the GOOD NEWS! If you are someone who recognizes your need for forgiveness, desires a new beginning in life, or is investigating Christian faith, it is my joy and honor to remind you that this gospel story is for you and you are invited to become part of it! I encourage you to respond to God’s love and forgiveness today. Don’t wait to receive God’s rescue and invitation to new life in Christ! If you are making the decision to put your faith in Christ and begin this new life, the next steps are to connect with God’s Word and with his family (the Church). If you live in the L.A. area we would be so honored to welcome you at Christian Assembly!

John 3:16, 17 NIV “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.”

Romans 5:8 CSB “But God proves his own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

Ephesians 2:8,9 NLT “God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.”

2 Corinthians 5:17-21 NLT “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him. For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!” For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.”
