Wednesday @ Wesley: Redeeming the Past

The Bible is clear - we’re to avoid immorality.  But, the reality is nearly everyone brings some level of a sexual history into their marriage.  That history causes many to fear that their mistakes will somehow hold them back in life or in marriage.

But it’s not supposed to be that way.  This week at Wesley we’re going to conclude our Relationship Series with a message about God  Redeeming the Past.   God’s Redemption goes well beyond His forgiveness into removing the past’s ability to limit our present and using our struggles to equip us to minister to others in theirs.

One of Wesley’s long time friends, Athens Christian counselor Cindy Gaultney, will do a short Q and A about the amazing work of Redemption the Lord has done in her life.  You won’t want to miss it.  Grace will abound.  Bring a friend.

Blessings.

Wednesday @ Wesley: Sex Q&A

Ever since the Lord said of Adam, “It is not good for man to be alone,”  people have wanted to know about marriage, dating and sex.  As we enter into the 3rd week of our Relationship Series, we’re going to focus on a biblical perspective of sex.  Even in a sexually charged information age like ours, there’s a famine for insight into God’s thoughts and purposes for creating us as sexual beings. 

Rather than do the traditional ‘sex talk’ as we have in past years, this week we’re going to put our students in the driver’s seat.  This Wednesday @ Wesley we’re going to have a ‘Sex Q and A’ meaning that you get to pick the topics, ask the questions, and determine the content and direction of the evening.  

Remember that we’re still meeting at the Wesley Chapel.  I hope to see you there and bring a friend.

Blessings.

A picture and note from Tammy Ma, a Wesley alumnus who runs a children’s home in Asia.
Please please join the K-family in FIGHTING for our precious Kumari. Just got word today that a long lost (never met her before) Uncle wants custody. There is very little true child advocacy here. His family is very poor. He told the social worker, ‘Why should my dead brother’s daughter come up in life, and become better than my own children. I don’t even send my own children to school, they can learn how to work. No way. She can live with us. No way she is going to be higher than my kids.” The govt. supports him, not us. Our only hope is JESUS, PRAY PRAY PRAY!!! May 1st is the date of decision. Our kids are unashamedly contending, our team is contending. Will you please pray with us? There are few things lower in society here than a 5 year old girl, who has lost her parents, from a low caste, and from a poverty stricken family. PRAY! (PS. We even offered to enroll his kids in our family support program so that they could get a similar education….he declined)

  • Whether you want to do leadership or discipleship
  • Top four choices of leadership area
  • What times you are available for an interview this Thursday

Spread the word guys!
