Pastor Josh here.

I would like to give you a preview of our Sunday morning service on January 5th here at Middletown Baptist Church.

And we are going to be starting a three week series looking at the goals of a growing church.

This week we're going to be talking about the goal of the Gospel.

What does the gospel mean for the church?

How are we supposed to interact with the gospel?

What should we believe about the gospel?

How can we share the gospel?

These are all things that we're going to be looking at here this Sunday.

And we want to launch our new year with a purpose.

We want to launch the new year with excitement and that is all around the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

That's why we do what we do.

That's why we worship on Sunday mornings.

We're going to be talking about how we as a church can have the goal of the gospel within our ministry here in this year.

And so for the next three weeks, we're going to look at three different goals of a growing church.

And I think that that'll be a blessing for all that are there.

We'll be live streaming on YouTube and Facebook and we'll be posting this sermon on Sunday on Monday morning on our podcast channel.

So we encourage you to share this and we hope that you have a wonderful weekend and we look forward to seeing you or hearing from you soon.

God bless you.

Have a wonderful weekend.
