Pathway To Joy - Part 1 By Pastor Bruce Shellhamer

1 John 3:1 Deuteronomy 6:5-7 Psalm 34:18 Philippians 4:4 Habakkuk 3:17-18 Matthew 6:34

“Road” vs “Path” Quote Wendell Berry (“The difference between a path and a road is not only the obvious one. A path is a little more than a habit that comes with knowledge of a place. It is a sort of ritual familiarity. As a form, it is a form of contact with a known landscape. It is not destructive. It is the perfect adaptation, through experience and familiarity, of movement to place; it obeys the natural contours; such obstacles as it meets it goes around. A road, on the other hand, even the most primitive road, embodies a resistance against the landscape. Its reason is not simply the necessity for movement, but haste.” (p. 12, “The Art of the Commonplace,” Wendell Berry)

“When we love Jesus, when we know Him, we want to be obedient” – Pastor Ally

If you’re a dad, be the spiritual leader in your home

Men, if you’re married, love your wife as Christ loved the church

If you’re a Dad; love your children

If you have a Dad you love – tell them

If you’re a dad or husband who’s fallen short, repent

"As you go on your way, Jesus is going with you Above you to watch over you, Beneath you to support you, Behind you to encourage you Before you to show you the way Beside you to be a friend And within you to give you peace Amen.
