Meet Pastor Mike Mitchum
I enjoy being the pastor of Neighborhood Church. I moved here in 1990 because I liked what I saw in this community. There is racial and economic diversity here. There is also a long history of welcoming all types of people in the church and in the community. I like that history.
Because of the love we have received, it is natural to want to share that with our neighborhood. Here at CNC we attempt to love our neighbors by reaching beyond the walls of the church and showing Christ’s love.
I hope you will feel at home here!
COMING THIS SUNDAY
Title: Chosen by Grace
Verse: “In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.”
Ephesians 1:11-12
Preaching Pastor: Mike Mitchum
The focus of our worship this morning will be God’s great grace in choosing us for salvation. Hoehner writes: “ . . . All people are sinners and deserve rejection. There was no obligation on God’s part to choose anyone but he freely chose some and this is evidence of his great grace. The point is that if God had not taken the initiative, no one would have his everlasting presence and life. The real problem is not why he had not chosen some, but why he chose any. No wonder God is to be praised.”
