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 />
