This is most of Mt. Tabor Christian Church (thus far)! We have been meeting in the basement of the pastor's home since March, 2007. God has blessed us with a new location that has windows! Although that can be distracting, I love seeing the sunshine! The outdoors remind me of God's majestic sovereignty and glorious beauty! The restaurant where we meet is a quaint upscale Italian Bistro called Quanto Basta, located in Cumming, GA. Check out our website: www.mttaborchristianchurch.org
So, we are few, but we are strong because of the bond of Christ. We have come far on this journey as a church and God has moved mountains to develop our characters. He has taught us about grace, mercy, loving one another, the judgment seat, the power of the Word, our spiritual gifts, ministry and service, the gospel, our sinfulness, His love, repentance, forgiveness, bearing each other's burdens, relationships, and reconciliation. But mostly He has brought us to the cross to learn more about His Son, Jesus, that He chose to die for us "while we were still sinners", so that we might experience the abundance of His resurrected life!
The biggest thing I've learned this year is the balance between knowing Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit. They are inseperable. It is imperative that we KNOW Christ in order to truly be led by the Spirit of the Living God, because the entire purpose of the Holy Spirit is to point us to Christ. (but that's another blog entirely)
We've only just begun and I am excited to watch expectantly as God continues to move in us, for us, and through us. He is mighty, holy, unchanging, beautiful, and sovereign. He is my first love and I will dance before my King. Praise the Lord for the wonders He has done. Press on Mt. Tabor! Rejoice in the truth of our Living God! Amen and amen.....
