S3E13: Thus Far the Lord Has Helped Us (Ebenezer‘s 225th Anniversary)

Sermon #131

We take a brief break from our Summer series, Deep Questions, to celebrate a milestone at Ebenezer United Methodist Church.  Back in 1790, the first Methodist Bishop, Francis Asbury, stirred the hearts of local people in Salem County, and his words became the springboard for a new church established by Oldmans Creek.  225 years later, Ebenezer is still changing hearts and making disciples.  It is my privilege to serve this historic congregation as its shepherd, and we know that we are still living up to our name, as the stone of help in Auburn community.  So grab your Bible, turn it to 1 Samuel chapter 7, and prepare your heart and mind as we proclaim, thus far the Lord has helped us.

1 Samuel 7:1-14
