True or False?
Godly leaders are essential for a healthy church. Continually training up future godly leaders is one of the absolute keys to fulfilling our mission as a church. It is in fact a key part of our mission.
And yet, there are lots of strange ideas people have about leadership. I mentioned a couple, but there are many more.
Over the next couple weeks we are going to be looking at a little of what the Bible says about leadership. This is going to be an important series for the life of our church. On Sunday we are beginning by looking at 2 Timothy 2 and talking about the church as a leadership factory.
Come ready! Come expectant! Come praying!

To help you make the most out of Sunday messages, I’ve made some changes to the sermon brief I normally send out. Check it out.
For the younger children this Sunday, you can have them listen for the word, “leadership.” To encourage them, Marda will have some treats afterward.
We will begin our Pastors' Q&A Podcast again very soon. You can help us by sending in questions you might have. They can really about any biblically related kind of issue. We especially love questions about applying the Bible to our lives. But, they could also be questions about the church as well. We want to serve you as well as we possibly can. So, if you have any questions you would like the pastors here at CBC to discuss on the podcast, please talk to Will Lau, Isaiah, or me.
Inviting the Neighborhood to VBS: After service on Sunday, July 24th, we will be going into the church neighborhood to invite neighbors to VBS... and have Gospel conversations, if the Lord allows!

For the final week of our Always Ready class, we’ll discuss your observations and questions regarding the last few pages of the Two Ways to Live booklet (“How to Respond”); your thoughts about the “Answers to Common Questions” handout from last week; brainstorm different responses to the Two Ways to Live presentation; and continue to practice our presentation in pairs. We’re now working on a more conversational presentation, though some will still be learning the rote presentation.
