Mission of the Week: Preaching Christ - Ed Bousman

This Wednesday is the deadline for bringing your Christmas gifts for Sonlight Christian Academy in Haiti. A box has been placed in the foyer for the gifts.

The National Prayer Clinic is this week, Tuesday - Thursday.

"Voices In Praise" from KCLI will be here for an area-wide Youth Rally this Sat. at 7 p.m. and in our morning worship service next Sunday.

Elderberries who plan to go to Pigeon Forge need to meet in Homer's classroom immediately after the morning service. Motel rooms and show tickets must be reserved.

We still collect food product labels for MMS. The school can redeem them for classroom items such as computers, copiers, etc. See the bulletin insert for a list of eligible product labels. Also, save your Food City receipts for MMS.

Volunteers are needed to pick up HOPE food Saturday at 3 p.m. at the warehouse.

The Great "I AM"
John 8:51-58

Jesus claimed to be the great "I Am" of the Old Testament. He is co-equal with the Father. But today let's consider some other places in the gospel of John where Jesus used the words, "I am."

1. "I am the Bread of Life." (6:30-35)

II. "I am the Light of the World." (8:12)

III. "1 am the Door." (10:9)

IV. "I am the Good Shepherd." (10:11)

V. "I am the Resurrection and the Life." (11:25-26)

VI. "I am the Way." (14:6)

VII. "I am the Vine." (115:5)

VIll. "I am HE." (18:5, 8:24)

Do you believe these facts about Jesus, the great "I AM?" You must do more than believe; you must be born again of water and spirit (Jn. 3:5).
