We are a family oriented church and look forward to meeting you personally at 742 Cookson Ave. SE New Philadelphia Ohio!  Our desire to minister to the entire family is evident at the front door! Welcome!

We trust you'll find easy access to every ministry provided and an open door to make the newcomer feel right at home.  We feel we are a missional church with the purpose of telling everyone everywhere they are loved and there is a plan and a purpose for their life!

Our desire as a church family is to see that every individual finds their purpose in life and in the grace of Christ's love!  My position in this church as pastor gives me this opportunity to invite you to come check us out and see the area you are interested in, in action.

Credentials

Read Amos 7:1 through 9:15

“I’m just a shepherd and a fig picker,” protested Amos, fending off accusations that he was a professional prophet—just in it for the money and prestige. We don’t know how willingly Amos prophesied, but we do know that many men in Scripture were reluctant to follow God’s call. Think of Moses, Gideon, and Jonah. Two of them did not feel qualified, and all of them questioned God’s wisdom in assigning them their respective tasks.

I was neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet, but I was a shepherd, and I also took care of sycamore-fig trees. But the Lord took me from tending the flock and said to me, “Go, prophesy to my people Israel” (Amos 7:14,15).

God often chooses the most unlikely candidate to do His will—often someone without the official credentials needed for the task. God often uses an individual with an unlikely skill set for the work at hand.

Don’t let your own insecurities keep you from being used by God. You might not feel qualified to do what God is calling you to do, but if you put your trust in Him you might just see Him do something wonderful.

Challenge for Today: Are you willing to step outside the bounds of your résumé to serve God?

Quicklook: Amos 7:12–17
