This Week | October 10 – 16, 2025
October 12 | Job, Let God Be God – Part 6: Fixing Your Wrong Beliefs, Job 4-5 – Pastor Mark Pospisil
Synopsis: As we continue our Job series, we will see “give and take” interactions between Job and his friends for many chapters. Job has experienced intense hardships, pain, and suffering. He is trying to make sense of it all. His friends think they know the exact reason. It has to be that he is in the wrong. It has to be that he, or his children, sinned against God. God is just giving Job what he deserves and once he realizes that he can turn and the Lord might heal them. The problem with that way of thinking is it is completely wrong for Job’s situation. His friends totally miss the mark and believe that if you do good, you will get good. They also think that if you do evil, you will also get evil. They hold onto other wrong beliefs about God, how this world works, about Job and about themselves. They ultimately do more harm than good. This morning, we will see how to correct some of our wrong understandings and get a fuller understanding of God’s sovereignty and the gospel of Christ.
Fighter Verse: Job 4:17 – Can mortal man be in the right before God? Can a man be pure before his Maker?

What’s Happening?
BAPTISM | OCTOBER 12
Baptism is the natural next step once we are saved! It represents the new life that Jesus’ resurrection gives us and is a public sign of our faith in Christ. If you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, we invite you to take this opportunity to demonstrate your faith in Christ.
We will have an opportunity to get baptized during all services on this Sunday. Please fill out this form to let me know you are interested in getting baptized!
