SPECIAL BUSINESS MEETING
We are calling a special business meeting on Sunday, March 6 to ask the congregation’s approval for funding to renovate the Youth Room (room 201). This will be a very brief meeting, since this is the only topic we intend to address. This meeting will take place directly after the Main Session, before Breakout Sessions begin. All are welcome to attend, but only active members will vote on this decision. We will have short presentations by our youth ministry team and FBC leadership before question/response and voting. We appreciate your support of our youth ministry!
Sincerely, Scott Meyers
on behalf of FBC Deacons

FBC Richland: Who We Are (Week Nine)

Pastor Tim Walker

2 Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. 
3 At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison— 
4 that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak. 
5 Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time.
Colossians 4:2-5 ESV

1 For you yourselves know, brothers, that our coming to you was not in vain.
2 But though we had already suffered and been shamefully treated at Philippi, as you know, we had boldness in our God to declare to you the gospel of God in the midst of much conflict.
3 For our appeal does not spring from error or impurity or any attempt to deceive,
4 but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God who tests our hearts.
5 For we never came with words of flattery, as you know, nor with a pretext for greed—God is witness.
6 Nor did we seek glory from people, whether from you or from others, though we could have made demands as apostles of Christ.
7 But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother taking care of her own children.
8 So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.
9 For you remember, brothers, our labor and toil: we worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, while we proclaimed to you the gospel of God.
10 You are witnesses, and God also, how holy and righteous and blameless was our conduct toward you believers.
11 For you know how, like a father with his children,
12 we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.
13 And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.
1 Thessalonians 2:1-13 ESV

As we gather…

What does the passage say?

Key words/phrases?

Major theological terms?

Commands?

Promises?

Difficult words/phrases?

What does the passage mean?

Context? (never interpret less than a paragraph)

How would the original hearers receive this?

Key word definitions?

Parallel Biblical teachings?

Can you communicate the point of this passage in a simple phrase?

As we go…

What must I do in response?

How does this truth apply to my life? Personally?

As the church?

In my community?

What steps do I need to take to apply this?
(Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-based Goals)

What is a missional conversation nugget to discuss with family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, etc.?

To whom will I be accountable?
(reach out and ask… follow up)

The Christian life is designed to be transferred relationally and journeyed together.
“Rope in”– brother to brother and sister to sister – on a weekly basis so that together we can draw near to God and join him in his kingdom work.
This is an exploration – commit and prepare for a long and rewarding journey.

To continue the conversation, email Pastor Tim:
