When Hope and The CORE Combine The last four weeks were very special at the CORE. Pastor Ski and Pastor Jason Ewert, from Hope in Oconomowoc teamed up to preach on the miracles of Jesus. Pastor Jason, a native of Tulsa, Oklahoma said, "Pastor Ski and I developed the series so that we could be partners in it. He preached in Oconomowoc and Appleton on July 4th and 11th. I preached in Oconomowoc and Appleton on July 18th and 25th. We figured that two long Sundays was a cheap price to pay for two Sundays "off". Plus, it is a positive experience for both congregations to hear the same truth about Jesus presented in a slightly different style." And positive it was! We learned that the miracles are a lot more than they seem on the surface. God had a much deeper message to share. Pastor Jason put it like this, "The miracles of Jesus remind us that Jesus is God and Jesus is sovereign. He has power and authority over all things in heaven and on earth. He has authority over things seen and unseen. Often times people like to pretend that they have authority over parts of their life. The miracles remind us that Jesus is in charge, and that's a good thing because he runs the universe much better than I ever would." If you didn't make it to all four weeks, take a few minutes to listen to the podcasts and reflect on the endless love God has for individuals and to learn the meaning behind the miracles of His son. The podcasts can be found on The Valley.

GJ - The bean-brains at The CORE cannot spell "forward." Too much time listening to rap music on the earphones? Doin' fo-ties?
