April 7 – “Running In the Rain”
In a Christian movie I saw recently, a new cross-country coach arrives for practice only to find the runners inside the school, assuming there would be no practice because it was raining outside. The coach’s response was right on point when she said “sometimes we’re running in the rain” so we need to be prepared for it. Those words apply to our spiritual race, too. So, join us this week as we focus on “Running in the Rain”. The Choir will sing: Amazing Grace · Order My Steps · Through It All · Blessings · By Faith · We’ve Come This Far By Faith · They That Wait Upon the Lord · Before the Throne of God Above · Holding On to Me · He Will Hold Me Fast · The Steadfast Love of the Lord
April 14 – “Spring Sing-Out: God’s Amazing Grace”
When Spring rolls around, I’m reminded of God’s goodness as He brings bud and bloom out of what appear to be dry, lifeless trees and bushes. Suddenly I see touches of pink on brown branches, hints of green pushing up through the soil — It’s God’s nature to bring beauty out of barrenness – and He does so in us by His amazing grace. So join us this week for our “SPRING SING-OUT – God’s Amazing Grace” and hear the Choir sing Were It Not for Grace · Grace Flows Down · Grace Greater Than Our Sin · Wonderful Grace of Jesus · He Forgives and Forgets · His Grace Was Greater · Peter’s Song · Amazing Grace · Grace Wins · Amazing Grace, My Chains Are Gone
April 21 – “Opposing Forces”
If you’re a fan of spy novels, you’re well aware that enemies often work “undercover” to try to defeat their adversaries. Well, so it is with our Christian walk – the enemy of our souls, described in scripture as the devil or Satan, often disguises himself to try to get the best of unsuspecting believers. So join us this week as we expose OPPOSING FORCES and how to deal with them. The Choir will encourage us with A Mighty Fortress · Didn’t My Lord Deliver Daniel · Great Is the Lord Almighty · Through It All · How Great Is Our God · Thy Word · I Surrender All · The Lord’s Prayer · I Go To the Rock · Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven · Jesus Never Fails
April 28 – “Let It Go!”
Parents and grandparents listening this week may remember a song from the fairly recent kids’ movie “Frozen” – it was called “LET IT GO”! Now the lyrics and theme of that song are not our focus in this program . . . but the TITLE is one of the best recommendations I know for handling offenses or unkind words: just “LET IT GO!” In this broadcast, we’ll see how Scripture suggests we do that, so be sure to join us and hear the Choir sing Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus · When I Look Into Your Holiness · My Help · Sweet Hour of Prayer · The Lord’s Prayer · I Then Shall Live · Jesus Loves Me · Oh How He Loves You and Me · Word of God, Speak · Open My Eyes that I Might See w/ Wonderful Words · Speak, O Lord
