I haven’t wanted to emphasize this, but things have been tight financially for CIL recently.   On Sunday, we had a record-breaking offering that was a true blessing from God, and gives us some room to breathe again.

Is the church about money?  No way!  However, with money we can do more to reach people for Christ, expand our Compassion ministries in north Nashville, plant churches in western Europe and support front-line ministries in Muslim countries.   Money is just a tool to expand God’s heart to our community and world.

I thank God for his provision in our church, and I pray that you will see God’s provision in your life this week.   Let me know how God provides for you this week.
