Fall Sermon Series and Small Groups
On Sunday August, we’ll start a sermon series called “Fruitfulness on the Frontline: Making a Difference Where You Are”. This will be an 8-week series that will encourage and challenge us to see how we are missionaries right where we are. There is a DVD and small group curriculum (that you can download for free!) that goes along with it. We would like small group leaders and locations. Please let Helen Harrison Coker know if you can lead a group: hcoker@saxegotha.org.
Fruitfulness on the Frontline
Amazon Smile: During the second quarter of 2019, we received $55 towards DF3 from Amazon!
Did you know that when shopping Amazon they will make a donation to Saxe Gotha that will go towards Debt Free in Three, with no additional cost to you? The only requirement is to go through smile.amazon.com instead of Amazon.com and choose Saxe Gotha as your charity of choice. AmazonSmile is the same Amazon you know. Same products, same prices, same service, but with each purchase you help reduce the debt.

Sermon Series
Our new sermon series focuses on one of the most incredible personalities in the Old Testament - King David. David's story contains all of the elements of a blockbuster film. He rises from obscurity to fame, becomes an outlaw then king, and seeks after God's own heart and yet becomes a murderer and adulterer. Fighting against insurmountable odds, military campaigns, political intrigue and beautiful women are all a part of David's amazing life. This story of a shepherd who becomes the King of Israel offers us not only rich drama, but also life lessons that can help us in our relationship with the Lord. In David, we find a person who experienced both the guilt of heinous sin and the depth of God's love and forgiveness. When we look at the person of David, we see elements of ourselves including our weaknesses and inconsistencies in our walk with the Lord. Let us learn together from a man who did great things as well as awful things before God.
