Act Like Men
Be watchful! Stand firm in he faith! Act like men! Be strong! Let all that you do be done in love! These five phrases from 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 ESV are a descriptive overview of how we can increasingly be a full grown man. It's not perfection because every day we are a beginner. We can start out on fire, be a crazy fool by lunch, and lose it all in a moment. The truth is we need each other to be our best selves.

The Lost Boys
Faith is personal, but it's never private.
Hiding leads to dividing.
Blaming leads to maiming.
It's impossible for people to die not loved. It is possible to die not saved.
Sin doesn't have the last word. Jesus does. The cross says sin has been forgiven, past, present, and future. I say yes to His yes.
There are two outlets for toxic masculinity:
Tyranny
Passivity
Passivity says:
Not My Problem
Not My Fault
Not My Responsibility
God Desires Authenticity
Generosity Through Giving
We want to thank those of you who give faithfully and systematically to our church. We hope you know how important your giving is to what God is doing at FBC Seminole, in our community, and across the planet through the different ministries we are able to partner with through your financial generosity. We've fixed plumbing, remodeled kitchens, replaced shingles, celebrated our teachers, and made a difference in a host of other opportunities. Your generosity matters. We offer Financial Peace University on a consistent basis for those who need financial help. It's a financial management system that allows multitudes to eliminate debt and live in freedom. Text the amount you want to give to 84321.
