Pastor Rusty Davis issued a challenge to the congregation at Cherry Grove Baptist Church as nearly 300 people gathered to dedicate a new sanctuary Sunday.
Reading from Acts 2:42, “And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers,” Pastor Davis issued a four-point challenge to the congregation, and invited guests without a church home to consider Cherry Grove.
Key points in the pastor’s challenge were:
- We will be a church that is committed to teaching and receiving the rightly divided word of truth
- We will be a church that is committed to each other.
- We will be a church that is committed to being obedient to the word of God.
- We will be a church that is committed to prayer.
“Would you commit to doing these things,” Pastor Davis said.
