Soli Deo Gloria - part 7 (homework)

Secret Sermon part 7

The following was not actually preached, but it appeared in a bulletin handout. If you are local and reading this, feel free to check out any of these activities listed. If you are not in Chilhowee, then I would like to encourage you to plug into a local body of believers taking part in the ministries of the Church. As stated in part 6, you have a role to fill in your local church. God has gifted you and wants you to use those gifts in His service for His glory!
