I am glad to be getting back into our regular schedules. Summer has been a fun filled, power packed, sensational season at 2nd Mile Church, but I am glad to be returning to some type of regular schedule.
For the next several weeks we are going to be in the little book of Philemon. It will tie in to our theme of “an open door in ’24” very well. This little book tucked over in the New Testament has a great message for the local church. I am asking the Lord to open the door of enlightenment so that we might have an understanding of what the local church is all about and what we are to be about. Philemon is only 25 verses, so I would encourage you to read it several times over the next 4 weeks.
