Saturday, January 1, 2011 – Daily News – 3B Religion Faith&Worship Church news Gospel concert Jan. 6 Dreams and visions Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass after- ward, that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions. In The Crist Family will be performing a Southern Gospel Concert at 6:30 p.m. on Jan. 6 at First Church of God, 1005 S. Jackson St., in Red Bluff with Chad Bushnell of Red Bluff as the opener. One of America’s fastest rising family groups in gospel music today. Their blend of voices, great songs, high ener- gy and incredible testimony is second to none. In just their third year, they were invited to sing on Main Stage at the National Quartet Convention and have graced the stage at nearly every major event in gospel music. They have recorded numerous CDs, a DVD and have had chart success with every song released on the radio. Imagination’s role in faith? SOURCE OF BELIEF Rabbi Mark Levin of Congregation Beth Torah, Overland Park, Kan.: Religions teach that we are both physical and spiritual creatures. Our knowledge of the physical world originates with our senses. But the spiritual world we understand through interpretations of the human imagination: the capacity to consider things that are not physically present before us. Religion largely concerns matters of redemption: the perfection and ultimate meaning of the world. Christ- mas celebrates for the Christian the potential redemp- tion of the world by a Redeemer. Jews believe the mes- siah will yet perfect the world. These beliefs are prod- ucts of the imagination in that we can mentally con- ceive of them but cannot prove their veracity scientifi- cally. Our brains order reality and imagine the world as if these things are true, and we act accordingly. Jews live by the mitzvah system, the commandments of God, the Talmud and subsequent codes of Jewish law and practice. These follow a system developed by the rabbis, scholars of the first five centuries C.E. (Common Era). This extraordinary religious system describes the Jewish way of seeing the world, which differs from the Christian perspective, the Hindu per- spective, the Muslim perspective and the perspective of every other religion. Each belief system utilizes the imagination to describe reality in accordance with the believers' experience. Imagination does not simply play a role in faith. We could not have faith without the human imagination. 2003 God gave me what I will call an open vision- even a day dream, if you will, of what I wanted to see happen for the women of Shasta Coun- ty. Brenda Morrison GodTalk I had just been asked to be a part of a group of women from seven dif- ferent churches in our city to network. We began to share ideas to minister to the women in our individual churches, shared our resources such as bible studies and retreat ideas, but most of all we supported each- other in prayer and went to training together because we were like minded; our hearts went out to women. In one of these early meetings I said, "I see the river rising in Red- ding and I believe we need to bring a confer- ence to Redding and fill up the Redding Civic Auditorium". You could feel the Holy Spirit in that meeting; we all agreed that it was God, and we would pray and seek His guidance for the right timing. We prayed, and we prayed and we prayed some more. Never give up on your prayers. Know that they are going straight into the throne room of God for such a time as this. We have to remember that God has an appointed time for everything. When a dream or a vision comes it’s impor- tant to seek wisdom and understanding, for His ways are much higher than ours. Although Shasta County Women’s min- istries team has changed (we have now grown to 32 churches and still growing) the dream is alive and well. In 2010 we felt this was the time set on God’s calendar to make our dream become a reality. And so it was we began to pray about the speaker, the place, and the date, asking God to go before us in every aspect of the planning of this event. I have always said God is such a God of details but never before have I seen it so beauti- fully displayed. Our cities have come togeth- er in such unity to pre- sent to you "Shelter of God’s Promises," by Sheila Walsh, live on Feb. 4-5, 2011. Host site for this event is Redding Christian Fellowship located at 2157 Victor Ave. Redding Ca. 96002 phone is 222-3425. The schedule is 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. We have had such an overwhelming response to this event that we have now added Friday Feb. 4. The ticket price of $30 includes breakfast snacks, lunch, great worship by Shasta County Women’s Wor- ship team, Jennifer Thigpen, Women of Faith worship leader, and the incomparable ministry of Sheila Walsh. More than 150 volun- teers from our area churches have joined together to reach out to women in our city. Our motto is it takes a City to reach a City and we wel- come more volunteers. Tickets are available at First Church of God, 1005 Jackson St. in Red Bluff or call 527-5717. In Redding try Bibles, Books and More on Hilltop Drive or Holy Family Christian Books at 2990 Churn Creek, or go online to www.rcfel- lowship.org. Tickets are going fast and only those purchased before Jan. 10 will include lunch; after that date the price will rise to $35. Sheila Walsh says, "No matter what you’re facing right now, God’s promises will never fail you!" We believe Sheila has the message for our women for these tough economic times we are facing. Invest in your future; we truly believe that you will walk away saying this is just what I needed to run the race that is set before us with joy and gladness for we serve a great God who is able to do abundantly more than we can ask or think according to the power that works in us. Eph: 3:20 In this dream I have learned not to question God’s continuity of what He is doing in my life in any given moment, but have learned to trust that God has an overall plan and He insists that we be patient and exercise faith. Not only have I done that in my personal life but we have exer- cised this as a team of women working together for one purpose and that is so that God receives all the glory. What an honor it has been to be a part of a team that loves the women of the north state. We pray you will plan to be a part of something much larger than any of us could ever imagine.
