Have you ever been curious about the origin and history of the church? Do you like to dig deep – really deep – into a book of the Bible and discover all that God has for you there? Are you looking for a fun, engaging, like-minded group of believers with which to fellowship, study, and grow in God's word?

Then grab your Bible, a cup of coffee, and settle in – for you've found a home at Real Spirit &Truth.

"Ephesians: Paul's letter to the Body of Christ"
Our study for 2011

As 21st century Christians we still find Paul's writing to be as applicable to our lives today as it was to 1st century believers. The two key themes of his letter to the church at Ephesus deal with:

1. Christ's reconciliation of all creation to himself and to God.
2. His uniting of people from all nations to himself and to one another in his church.

Come join us as we study the writing of this great apostle and learn more of the richness of God's blessings that we have as believers in Christ and our responsibility as His body to know, understand, and walk in a manner that is fitting with our calling in Him.

Ovations!

On Sunday, March 6, the crew from Real Spirit & Truth attended Ovations! A Connect Group Celebration. In the words of Pastor Jay, Ovations! allowed us to "celebrate our successes and look forward to our future." RS&T managed to do both!

In addition to enjoying the music ministry of the talented Sarah Groves, our Connect Group also committed to some "God-sized" goals that night. We hope God will lead you to join us this year as we commit to:

• Reaching out to people by increasing our one-on-one contacts, being accountable as a group for making guests and new members feel welcome and a sense of belonging, and following up with our current membership.
• Organizing around the discipleship functions by taking thoughts and lessons from Sunday and incorporating them in our lives the rest of the week.
• Ministering to people around the world by supporting the continent of Africa as part of our church's RS7 Mission Strategy and to minister to people in our own community by becoming involved with the Mobile Ministry Unit for at least one block party, using the varied gifts God has blessed our members with to serve Him in the way He would have us to.

We're looking forward to a great year in Real Spirit & Truth!
