Offering Hope and Nourishment for Thanksgiving

At Cullman Church of Christ in Cullman, Alabama, the congregants wanted to show love and care during the holidays by providing Thanksgiving Meal Bags to students in their local district. But they didn’t want to just provide food, as important as that is, but the real sustenance of life as well—the Word of God.  

With approval from the principal, they put together 1,050 bags for students. However, for the kindergarten through second grade students, they included a copy of The Beginner’s Bible, and for the older students, a copy of the NIV Bible, thinline edition, ordered in the school color red.  

Offering nourishment with food and Scripture is the ultimate way to show thankfulness during Thanksgiving. But no matter the size of your congregation, we’re certain you can find some way to embrace this practice. We’ve included a couple of ideas to get you started.  

• Consider your neighborhood. Are there organizations looking for help to fulfill needs during this season? Ask if you could help provide some supplies and Bibles for those they serve.  
• Ask your congregants. Do they know people who need assistance? This is a perfect idea for a smaller congregation. Include what people might need for a Thanksgiving meal—and the Word of God, too!

We can’t wait to see how the Spirit of God moves this season through these simple acts of care.  

The Body Teaches the Soul

Bestselling author Justin Whitmel Earley has a message to share with you: Your body is more spiritual than you think. 

Pastor and church leaders are not immune to the effects of anxiety. How can we preach a gospel of peace, yet still find our bodies wracked by worry? How do we call our bodies temples of the Holy Spirit, yet regard eating, exercise, or sleep as inherently "unspiritual" activities? How have modern Christians who claim God made their bodies come to care so little about them? 

Justin Whitmel Earley is intimately familiar with the consequences of ignoring the body. As a young lawyer, Earley collapsed into anxiety and insomnia that nearly ruined his life. In his journey back to mental and spiritual health, he realized that the healthy and unhealthy habits shaping his life weren't physical or spiritual; they were physical and spiritual. 

The Body Teaches the Soul is a practical guide to the union of body and spirit in our overall health. With his characteristic vulnerability and story-driven approach, Earley shares personal failures, fascinating research, and biblical wisdom that will improve your health and deepen your relationship with God.   
Earley is not a health guru telling you how to get in shape; he is the ordinary Christian's guide to rediscovering the extraordinary gift of the body and the spiritual life that flows from it.  

PASTOR TO PASTOR

Dismantling the Life of an Independent Faith

In Gary Thomas’ new book, The Life You Were Reborn to Live, we are asked to realign our thoughts about church. Thomas asks believers and leaders alike to ask ourselves how we can serve the church instead of wondering what the church can do to serve us.
