One Thing All Barnwell, SC Residents Need to Know
I spent the first seventeen years of my life growing up in a small town in South Carolina. My hometown is a dot on the map to most, but for me, Barnwell, SC is where God molded me into the man that I am today. Most of my family still lives there and whenever I visit, the place still feels like “home.” It isn’t perfect (neither are the other five cities I’ve called home), but it is filled with amazing people that mean the world to me.
Well, I’m PUMPED about something happening in Barnwell in a few days and I want to share it with you. As many of you know, my best friend and contributor to this website, Pastor Robert Altman, lost their facility to a fire a year ago (you can go Here and read about it). However, this Sunday their church will worship together in their brand new building for the very first time. I will not be able to be there (I have to be at my church in North Carolina), but there is one primary reason why I hope you will visit Bethany Baptist Church on October 4th.
AT BETHANY BAPTIST YOU WILL HEAR THE GOSPEL
I truly believe that every person would be better with a relationship with Jesus. This is the conviction that motivates me each week to present the good news of Jesus Christ in a way that people can understand. Bethany Baptist shares this conviction and does everything in their ability to present the message of Jesus in a way that all age groups can understand. At Bethany, from the youngest of child to the oldest of adult, all ages will go home having heard of the life, love, and hope found in Jesus.
I’m encouraged to know that there is a church in my hometown that genuinely loves Jesus and articulates His message in a way that my friends, family, and former neighbors that live in Barnwell, SC can understand. There is hope for you and I pray that God uses October 4th at Bethany Baptist Church to show you.
If you live in Barnwell, SC, for this reason and many others I pray that you will visit Bethany Baptist on October 4th. If you do not live near Barnwell, SC my hope for you is that you find a church in your area like Bethany, that is passionate about Jesus and His mission.
