A note from pastor Brandon...

Over the years I have met myriads of people who are out giving churches a test drive. If you will, they’re kicking spiritual tires of the church to see if it meets their needs. Through this I have met people who are skeptical, scared, hurt, angry, reluctant, cautious and broken just to name a few. They are at a point where they know something in their life or family needs to change, but they’re not yet convinced that Jesus and his church can really help.

About 2000 years ago a man named Phillip was invited by Jesus to follow and learn from him. After Phillip spent just a little time with Jesus he went to a friend named Nathaniel and told him that he had found what he was looking for. Nathaniel, like many today, was skeptical and reluctant. Phillip’s response to Nathaniel is one I like. He was not critical, judgmental or condemning. He simply said, “Come and See.” In other words, give Jesus a chance and judge for yourself.

If you’re one of those who is skeptical, scared, hurt, angry, reluctant, cautious & broken, I would like to offer you a challenge—Come and See! Come and see this Jesus and judge for yourself. Come and see that Jesus can make a huge difference in your life and family. Come and see that His church at Valley View is simply real people with real faith on an incredible journey.

While reluctant, Nathaniel accepted the challenge of “Come and see.” He discovered Jesus was exactly who Phillip said he was. Join us this Sunday and see if Jesus really is someone who can impact your life.

Pointing People to Christ,

Brandon
