What is something you wish you would have known when you were younger?

Faith isn’t real if you never put it to work. Is your Christian faith real, practical, demonstrable, and useful? Or is your faith theoretical and untested? Faith is not just something we think, but something that we live out every day. Our faith in Jesus is meant to be put to work in how we live. It guides us in every facet of our lives, every choice we make, everything that we do.

If we have faith that God is at work for our good, then how we live will show it. Jesus said this in Matthew 6:25-27 – “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?

Jesus cares for us and he proved it through His death and resurrection. He invites you to place your faith in Him and be saved.

We would love to meet you at FBC Eufaula! We are located at 400 West Foley in Eufaula. FBC Wednesday nights start each Wednesday at 6 p.m. with great ministries for Adults, Students and Children. On Sundays our Small Group Bible studies begin at 8:45 a.m. and you are invited to worship with us at 10:00 a.m. each Sunday. You can join us in person or online at www.eufaulafbc.org.

Trunk or Treat will be Thursday, October 31st from 4-6 p.m. at First Baptist Church and we hope you will join us for a safe and fun place for your children to trick or treat.

Know that you are loved! Pastor J. Ingram FBC Eufaula
