Starting Point<br />

By Gary Keith, Lead Pastor<br />

Everyone has a starting point for all sorts of life events. People have a first day of<br />

school, a first date, a first kiss, a first job. Sometimes these firsts become starting<br />

points for long-lasting experiences in life. A first date may turn into a marriage.<br />

That first day of school was a starting point. Your career had a starting point, at<br />

that first interview.<br />

Faith also has a beginning, which is why we created Starting Point, a new ministry<br />

at LBF designed for those who might be curious about God, Jesus, the Bible, or<br />

Christianity. It’s also a good place for those who have just begun a relationship<br />

with Jesus. This is not a class or a time of lecture, but a conversation about faith.<br />

It’s a place where people can explore faith and experience community. It’s a safe<br />

place to ask questions and learn about the Bible and Christianity.<br />

This brand new ministry begins the week after Easter. Our hope is that anyone<br />

you invite to Easter at LBF who has questions has a great place they can explore<br />

them. Let your guests know about this new ministry, and consider joining them on<br />

Wednesdays, starting <strong>April</strong> 26, for this 8-week conversation.<br />

We recently rennovated the Belleview<br />

House meeting room (shown below) to<br />

prepare for this new ministry! Special<br />

thanks to the team of people who<br />

made this happen: Kim Methvin, Laura<br />

Taylor, Kiki Hahs & Shauntel Raymond.<br />
