The Gospel According to Greg

Greg Taylor Greg Taylor Greg Taylor Greg Taylor greg@clintonfcc.com It is really hard for me to believe we are already in the month of July (or very close to it – depending on when you are reading this article)! This is our second “monthly” edition of the “K” newsletter, and just as a reminder, please understand that our weekly bulletin for Sunday morning worship services has been expanded to provide more information and news items, and for the last four Monday’s, I have published a weekly update/blog. You can find all three of these communication documents on our website at www.clintonfcc.com/#/communication. And you can access the weekly update/blog directly at www.gregtaylorfcc.wordpress.com. Extra copies of both the weekly bulletin and the weekly blog in print form are available at both the welcome center and the church office. If you have any questions or comments about this recent change, please feel free to call me at the church office or drop me an email at greg@clintonfcc.com. Last month, I shared with you about several important happenings during the month of June. Let me give you some updates related to several of these June events:

The “Next Steps” facility update master plan has been unveiled and several commitments have been turned in to the church office. If you do not have a “Next Steps” information packet, please contact Karen in the church office and we’ll get one out to you ASAP. Several one-time gifts have been received and many have committed to giving above and beyond for the remainder of 2013 in order to move closer to beginning phase one. Special giving envelopes and commitment cards are available at the welcome center and in the main office at FCC and please let me know if you have any questions at all about “Next Steps.”

Sunday morning June 16, brought our bi-annual congregational meetings for the purpose of affirming Mark Behrends, Chris Moody and Ty Osterbur to serve as elders at FCC. Each man was overwhelmingly approved. Having served as an elder at FCC before, Mark and Ty will now serve for three-year terms, while Chris, as a first time elder, is serving an initial one year term, which could be followed by a three-year term with no required sabbatical. Current elders Jim Taylor and John Wise will conclude their initial four years of service on June 30, and are required to take a one-year sabbatical from the eldership. Five others have one year remaining prior to their required one year sabbatical: Danny Bundy, Ken Klein, Dana Korneman, Jay Wickenhauser and Mark Witzke. Please pray for your eldership!

Vacation Bible School was a huge success the third

week of June! Over 225 different students attended part or all of VBS and our students learned all week long how to be strong in the faith, studying Biblical heroes like David, Esther, Nehemiah, Josiah, and the greatest hero of them all – Jesus Christ! Thanks to each and every person who had a part in the success of VBS 2013!

D.R. Mission Trip update! 15 from our church traveled

to Santiago, D.R., June 4-11 with G.O. Ministries and their lives were changed forever. The service on Sunday morning, June 30, will give us an opportunity to see video and pictures, and hear testimonies of this awesome life-changing experience.

The Children’s Ministry Council report on the state of

our children’s ministry. This report will be handed out during morning worship services on June 30.

Have a great summer – see you at FCC! GT

The Gospel According to Greg continued

Thoughts from Kent HickersonThoughts from Kent HickersonThoughts from Kent HickersonThoughts from Kent Hickerson

Little Things Mean A Lot! Jesus wants us to realize something beautifully true about our Father, that He knows about the daily little things that make up most of our life. He knows about that crying baby, or bothersome piece of mail. He knows about the struggle at work and the needs of your child when he’s laughed at at school. He knows about the tear that wells in your eyes because someone doubts your love. He knows all about the feelings of pain, loneliness, the lack of self-worth and weariness that come into just a normal day; the feelings and hurts that are often inflicted by another, perhaps unknowingly. But Christ knows. He says to us, “Pray about these things too, for whatever is big enough to be of concern for you is not too small for my fatherly love and care.” We all bear unnecessary burdens in a given day, fill our minds with little fears that rob us of our joys because we do not allow our Father to get down into the nitty-gritty of our lives, there to care for us and with us. Jesus is saying (in the Lord’s Prayer) “Let me in on those things too, for that’s where you live most of your life. I’m interested in the big things naturally. I care about wars and nations and poverty and sickness and death, but I also know your feelings when the boss scowls at you. Welcome me there too.” God’s not only concerned about your making the right choice about whom you marry, but also the thousands of little decisions and deeds that keep you happily married. What a tragedy it is when we fail to want Him there or recognize that He is there. Why is it, with the Bible making it so clear, that our Father wants to be there, but so many of us refuse Him his presence with us? Where does that come from? Why are we so obviously aware that God is great, high, holy, the Father of all creation that His will is above all things, and that His kingdom should come in and one day will come in when Christ returns - why are those things out there so easy to accept - that God is the ruler and judge of all, but we cannot accept His promise to be with us at breakfast, in the grocery store, or at the kitchen sink. Is it because we do not understand the nature of God? We have been so conditioned by the fact that God is high and holy, that He cannot concern Himself with the simple trifles of our lives. They may be important to us, but God has more important things to worry about. Jesus said, “Give us this day our daily bread.” He didn’t say tomorrow’s or next month’s, but today’s. He in His wise love knows the importance of the little things.

(Thoughts from Ronald Beyer on his series on the Lord’s Prayer)

Young at Heart David Buck, Coordinator

We all go through seasons where we’re not seeing any progress, no new doors are opening, no breaks are coming our way. In those times, it is easy to feel forgotten, or at least insignificant, as though our hopes and dreams don’t matter, especially when hard times continue month after month, even year after year. We lose our enthusiasm. We get discouraged, and we drag through life thinking, nobody is interested. This never will change. Be aware, God is merciful! “…Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the world. Amen” Matthew 28:20 KJV The 3rd of July, we’ll enjoy the “Prime Timers Quartet” blessing us with old-time Southern gospel singing, and we’re sure all will like them. On August 7th, the ladies have planned a party for us with fine fun food and games to our delight. Looking forward to fine time of fellowship! “How precious it is Lord, to realize that you are thinking about us constantly…” Psalm 139:17 TLB Trips are lining up. On June 22nd we’ll go to Sullivan’s Little Theater for the stage play “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.” We’ll eat at Jibby’s! Then on August 10th, we’ll plan on going to the Beef House for Broadway tunes and good food. On the 24th of August, we’ll go to Bloomington to see one of our favorites, Shoji Tabuchi, from Branson, play his violin. It will be a night to remember. On the 5th of September, we’ll go to the stage play “Annie” at the Myer’s Dinner Theater in Hillsboro, IN. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5 Have faith that no matter where you are in life, no matter what comes against you, you are not alone. You are not forgotten, God remembers you. He remembers the dreams He’s put on the inside. He remembers the promises you’re holding on to. He remembers the sacrifices you’ve made. You are unforgettable to our God.

The Dunkin’ Pick-Me-Up With Cody Cody MonkmanCody MonkmanCody MonkmanCody Monkman

cody@clintonfcc.com Being in the stage of life that I am in right now, I find myself reflecting

constantly on what God has done in my life, what he is doing now, and

what he may be leading me to in the future. This week the kids in Jr.

Church will be learning about The Parable of the Prodigal Son from

Luke 15:11-32. While prepping for this lesson, and praying for God to

do a work in my heart so I can effectively teach the kids, I found myself

relating a lot to this passage.

We find that this parable from Luke 15 has grace written ALL over it.

There is a son who didn’t want to live his life in his father’s household.

He wanted to live his life his own way, and find fulfillment through

“wild living.” He walked away from his loving father that cared for him.

Then rough times hit! It is at this point the son realized he walked away

from something that was good, pleasing and fulfilling, to go chase after

something that was temporarily satisfying. So the son returned to his

father. How did his father respond? He ran towards his son, “threw his

arms around him and kissed him.” The son felt unworthy of his father’s

love because of what he had done. Yet, the father showed love, grace,

and mercy toward his son and threw a party for him because he had

returned safely.

This is a very relevant passage for all of us. We all at one point or

another find ourselves distant from God, living our lives for ourselves.

Thanks be to God for showing us the love and grace He offers, and for

those who have returned to their Father! How often do you find yourself

saying that you are unworthy of God’s love and grace? Some of us

probably wonder, “Is God’s love and grace too good to be true?” If we

are honest with ourselves, many of us have done and have said things

similar to that of the son. At the end of this story we find a response

from the father that we don’t typically find in our broken world. It’s a

response of grace. A response of love and acceptance NO MATTER

WHAT the circumstances, sins, or wrong doing that was done.

The Dunkin’ Pick-Me-Up With Cody Cont.

This type of love, grace, and acceptance reminded me of what I

experienced this past year. Coming off a retreat in January, an amazing

group of people came together. Some of them I already knew; some of

them I didn’t know at all. Little did I know, this group of seven would

become a family that I unknowingly so desperately desired. It was a

family of individuals from different backgrounds, but a family that

offered the same love, grace, and, ultimately, acceptance. At the core of

this group was Christ, and it was His love, grace, and acceptance that

we each had experienced that allowed us to share it with each other. It

is the same love, grace, and acceptance the father showed to his son in

this parable. Each of these individuals has their own life they are living

for the Kingdom: Andrew is working at a pool business in St. Charles,

Greg invests in students at Bloomington High School, Stephanie shows

the beauty of God through her photography business, Mary invests in

the youth at Youth Hope in the Quad Cities, Brooke is a missionary in

Africa (just left today), and Chyanne is working at a hair products

business in Sterling. We all have our own gifts, and are living our

separate lives for the Lord, but we live with one purpose, under one love

and one grace, and that’s the Grace of God. Does this sound familiar?

Hopefully it sounds like The Church to you! Paul speaks of this in 1

Corinthians 12:12.

My challenge for you is to BE the church. No longer do you say “I go to

church.” If you are a Christ Follower you can say “I am the church!”

But in order to BE THE CHURCH, you can’t fight with the grace of

God! Your Heavenly Father says you are worthy of his grace and love,

and He accepts you with wide-open arms. Is it too good to be true? You

bet it is! It’s that good!

Accept it. Cherish it. Extend it. Be the church!

Adventures with Adam continuedcontinuedcontinuedcontinued Last week at VBS, the Jr. High students travelled around the community and out to Little Galilee to do service projects in the name of the Lord. We have several reasons why we do that for the Jr. High age group. One: because they are ready for a little more than crafts, main sessions and all of the other fun stuff that you experience with the younger age groups. Two: because we believe that service projects and helping those in need brings us a little bit closer to the heart of God. All too often in the society that we live in, we are expected or pressured to be all about ourselves and to have a “what can I do for me mentality.” Service projects help us to move away from being so self-centered and more towards what really matters in life. The Bible speaks often of being selfless and here a few of those times:

Philippians 2:4 - Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

Galatians 5:14 - For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: “You shall love

your neighbor as yourself” Philippians 2:3 - Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count

others more significant than yourselves. When we begin to die to ourselves and serve others, we start to look a little more like Jesus. Jesus was the ultimate servant. He is the one who took all our sins to the cross so that we can have a right relationship with him. I think sometimes we need reminders to step out of our comfort zones and begin to help others. My challenge this month is to get out and serve somewhere at least once. Call up the church and see what ministry area needs help. Call Kevin at Little Galilee and see what project you and your family could do. Serve a meal at a soup kitchen. Sacrifice one of our most precious commodities (time) to help someone else out. The possibilities are endless.

Cereal Collection for Little Galilee We are continuing to collect cereal to help Little Galilee Christian Camp. You can help by bringing Rice Krispies, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Captain Crunch, Fruit Loops, Lucky Charms and Golden Grahams to the church office or the foyer on Sunday mornings.

Superman Gospel Jim Coonce Jim Coonce Jim Coonce Jim Coonce jim@clintonfcc.com

Okay…I admit it…I have been loving some of the superhero/action movies that have been released this summer: “Iron Man 3”, “Star Trek: Into Darkness” and the latest, “Man Of Steel”! I feel that this summer’s round of “blockbuster” movies have been some of the best to come out in several years. As usual, I try to watch these movies with “world view” eyes for some of the underlying messages. I didn’t have to look far in the case of the latest Superman installment, “Man Of Steel”. I read an excellent article in Relevant Magazine and am going to share some bits from it. Live as one of them, Kal-El, to discover where your strength and your power are needed. Always hold in your heart the pride of your special heritage. They can be a great people, Kal-El. They wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all—their capacity for good—I have sent them you ... my only son. – Jor-El (Superman, 1978) First appearing in Action Comics #1 back in 1938, Superman has spent nearly 75 years engaged in "the never ending battle for truth, justice and the American way." But as society has shifted and conflicts around the globe have caused people to question the means of “the American way,” Superman’s vivid blues and reds have seemed increasingly out of touch with the graying of the world around him. Sure, the iconic “S” shield can be found on virtually everything from T-shirts to tattoos, but it seems to have become more synonymous with the idea of power than with the virtues of Superman as a character. And while comic books have ridden a tidal wave of cultural relevance over the past decade—three of the top 10 highest grossing films of the last decade are movies based directly on comic books—inaccurate understanding of Superman’s simplicity has made him seem like a character from a bygone era.

Everyday Worship Superman Gospel cont.

A perfect example being 2006’s “Superman Returns”. Instead of starting fresh with the character, director Bryan Singer opted to make the $200 million-budgeted Returns as a sort-of sequel to Richard Donner’s “Superman II”. If making a sequel to a 26-year old franchise (that also ignores the final two installments) wasn’t confusing enough, Singer also decided to take the divine undertones of the Donner films in a decidedly “Last Temptation of Christ” direction by having Superman “unknowingly” father a child with Lois Lane. A twist that seemingly sought to be both edgy and humanizing, but came off as completely out of character. So while it might seem shallow or reaching to try and identify a superhero with the savior of mankind, one might also argue that it is telling to look back and see how people’s perceptions of the character of Superman and the person of Christ have mirrored each another—with attempts being made to bring “relevance” to both while they seemingly move from being staples of our society to the sidelines. However, as “Man of Steel” screenwriter David Goyer says, "We didn’t come up with these allusions of Superman being Christ-like, that’s something that’s been embedded in the character from the beginning." So, there’s reason to believe that the new take in “Man of Steel” may embrace its subject's multitude of messianic parallels. Such a change could benefit the perception of Christ, as well. While it’s still too early to know for certain, “Man of Steel” seemingly promises to tell a bigger story than we’ve seen from Superman in cinema before, but also a story that is rooted in something simple: love. The love of fathers for their son. The love of a son for his father. And how that love ultimately helps shape the choices the son makes —from the smallest decisions to the most fantastic of feats. It’s a story that may be simple. But one that begs to be told. From “The Superman Gospel” by Kevin Sheen in Relevant Magazine http://www.relevantmagazine.com/culture/film/superman-gospel
