From the desk of Pastor T.C Johnson

Speaker: Pastor T.C. Johnson
Date: Sunday, June 1, 2025
Topic: "Take Me To The Cross!"
Scripture Reading - 1 Corinthians 1:18 (KJV)
18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God
From the desk of Pastor T.C. Johnson
Living the Christian life can be a challenge on many levels, and that may be an under-statement. Overwhelming external forces that burden the soul as well as internal doubt that cause one to question the validity or quality of one’s personal faith, are realities that so many must deal with during this ‘LIFE’ journey. When I look at the Communion Table and see the words “Do This In Remembrance Of Me” it brings comfort and calmness. We forget our worth and begin to worry about our relationship with the Father because bad and unpleasant things happen to us or ours. But if you can get to the cross and see an innocent Jesus, drenched in blood, bullied, belittled, battered, bruised, beaten and more, all for a guilty you, it should make you lift up your head and give you a refreshed faith. When a believer is lost or seriously dis-located in darkness of the valley of life, let them remember “at the cross, at the cross, where I first saw the light. So, take me to the cross when
Be blessed,
Pastor T.C. Johnson
