We had a great day yesterday at church. Last night we had the movie, “Do you believe?” What a powerful message… if you believe in Jesus, it requires that you do something. You cannot sit back and do nothing. If you get a chance, watch the movie. Have a great day. Pastor Bob

Zacchaeus
I like this guy Zacchaeus for a number of reasons. ( Luke 19:1-10) First of all, he was a short guy. You just don’t get it you “tall” people how difficult it is to be little. Everything is designed for the “big” or should I say the “normal” people. Try brushing your teeth with the counter top pressed up against your chest. What was the builder thinking…Goliath?
Even in high school the girls all dated the “tall, dark, and handsome guys.” I love high school reunions because a number of those categories have changed. Tall, fat, and …. Girls never look for the short and smart. Or how about, he has a good work ethic? Yea, right. It’s all about the “looks”. Enough venting.
Zacchaeus can’t get to see Jesus because of the “big” people. But does he give up. No…. He runs ahead and climbs a tree. Us little guys get the job done while the “big” people stand around and talk. When Jesus comes by, guess who gets to eat with Jesus. Ha ha. The little guy. If you want to hear the rest of the sermon, you can go to fgfnj.org and listen to the sermon (once it gets posted).

Friend’s Day
We had a great day today and the weather was perfect. We were fulfilling Acts 2 and growing through fellowshipping. I was fortunate to meet many family members. Praise God for a great day. Pastor Bob
Be a disciple; Make a disciple
Hi Folks,
It has been a busy week for me as we began our discipleship program. A discipleship program is not the magic potion that will cure all your problems but it has the potential to move you in the right direction spiritually if you work at it.
The program consists of 8 weeks of teaching that takes place in a classroom setting on Wednesday night at 7:00Pm or Sunday morning at 9:45Am. I am in the process of making videos so the teaching can be viewed online.
Additionally, I have created a workbook that has daily lessons including Scripture passages and questions to help you learn the principles in each passage. Twelve building blocks introduced over the eight weeks will help you in your adventure of growing in the Lord. There is much more to it and if you are interested, email me at b757bob@me.com for the password for the video and for the manual. Unfortunately, I cannot give away the manual since there was a cost involved in printing it.
Here is the link to the video for week one. Email me for the password for week one. God bless you in your adventure with the Lord. Pastor Bob
Tomorrow is the big day.
We start the discipleship program tomorrow. Join us if you can. Pastor Bob
T-10 days.

Time to Lift-off
Hi folks,
Thirteen days to lift-off for my discipleship training program. I know I haven’t blogged much this year and preparing the program has been the reason. More to come.
Pastor Bob
P.S. Details to come on how you can be involved.
Coming Soon
Hi Folks,
I am almost done with my preparatory work for my discipleship class. The more I study the more that I realize that I don’t know anything. God is so deep. I pray that you will want to take the journey with me. More to come soon. Pastor Bob
P. S. With regards to my health, I am doing well. Thanks for all for prayers.
Time really flies
Where has my time gone? I have been so busy with my church and doctoral program that I haven’t blogged in two months. Just a quick update and I will try to do better on keeping everyone updated. I am doing great medically. My strength is about 90% and the doctor is thrilled with my progress. I will be starting a maintenance drug soon and am in the middle of transitioning back to my local doctor. I appreciate your prayers. Thanks, Pastor Bob
