Calvary Chapel Seaside

We are currently studying 1 John. 

Come and join us every Wednesday night at 6:30 for Bible
Study and fellowship.

We are currently studying the Book of 1 Peter 

Come and join us this Saturday.

Saturday, January 9 at 8:30 a.m.

Study Psalm 17. This week the women are invited!

Come to Ruby’s in Laguna Beach, have breakfast (free), and fellowship with the brothers (and sisters).

Ladies and Gentlemen!  This Saturday at 8:30 AM we start anew the fellowship at Ruby’s.  As always, breakfast is free!

Check out Psalm 17.  David is still under much attack, surrounded (verses 9 & 10) by enemies.  He could have written this psalm during his wilderness experience.

It will help to list out David’s specific requests.  Make lists also of both his and his enemies’ attributes, attitudes and priorities, and actions.  Then compare and contrast those lists in light of the two “paths” discussed in verses 4 and 5.  Why is verse 4’s path that of the destroyer?  Why does David request help not to slip from verse 5’s path?

What word pictures does David use besides paths?  Look at the verbs as well as the nouns and adjectives.  What do these images say about David, his enemies, and God? 

What is David’s basis for asserting in verse 3 that God found nothing amiss when He tested David?  How does David know in verse 2 that he can be vindicated?  Apart from God’s forgiveness, could you make such statements? 

Verses 14 and 15 offer a contrast between David and his enemies, particularly their values and perspectives.  What do the wicked prioritize?  What is David’s confidence and goal?

How else does the Lord speak to you in this psalm?  Bring those insights with you this Saturday.

God bless!

Eric

Many things are happening right now attack, Illness…

I am asking all who can make it to night to come and pray –

People need work or work to pick up…

I know of all the other issues all of you are going through – so please come out tonight and we will pray as a body over what is happening in the body.

We might be a small church, but we can pray and there is no more powerful tool to come against the forces pressing on this church then that.

God Bless,

Kurt

Hello All:

This Thursday we will wrap up our study of Philippians.  We will review Chapter 4 that we covered last week and so many missed due to being sick, then finish out 4.  We will also take a look back at the entire book and discuss key verses that spoke to us individually.  The following Thursday is Thanksgiving and the week after that is the Ladies Christmas Luncheon on Saturday.  We will decorate Friday evening before.

Our fellowship and study will then take a break until after the Christmas holidays and resume on January 7^th.  We will discuss this Thursday what book we will study next.

It would be wonderful to see everyone and to pray with all of you.  I hope to see you.

REMEMBER:       CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON           December 5^th at 11:00am                       Bring a friend.
