Red Hill returned to in person worship on Sunday June 21st.  At this time we have a worship service on Sundays at 11 am only.  Our desire is to continue to assist you by pointing you to some resources to help you continue to grow and worship God.  This is not an exhaustive list by any means but just a desire from me, Alan Morgan the Pastor, to help you with some resources while we are the church scattered.  Some of these are people, books, and resources that I have used and hope can bring some spiritual enjoyment into your life. Enjoy, and we look forward to worshiping together soon. 

 

We recently added the opportunity to watch video sermons.  These videos are being created by the Pastor for individuals to use during this time of quarantine.  Click here to find the latest video message.   

These messages were not live-streamed as we have some technical difficulties that would enable Red Hill to live-stream, but they were recorded with the intent to be viewed and shared.  We hope you enjoy.    

 

We understand and feel the desire to be the church gathered together to worship our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ at this time.  Do not lose heart you have all the skills you need to worship God at home.  Primary elements that you need to have a family worship experience are: The family (whether that is a single person or multiple individuals of varying ages) and the Bible.  Do not try and over complicate it.  

Read Scripture – Pray – Sing 

Sing hymns – maybe even without music

 

At the beginning of the year, we embarked on a journey to read the Bible through in a year.  We are using the plan from www.fivedaybiblereading.com.  You can download the schedule from their website.  Of course, you can never go wrong reading God’s Word.  What if you have fallen behind?  Then if you have free time, try to read a little extra to catch up.  Feel that you are too far behind or are just starting?  Then start on today’s date and go from there. Our desire is that you read God’s Word.

Crossway: They are offering some free resources during the virus.  They sell Bibles and books but also have numerous articles.  Find them at www.crossway.org

Paul Tripp Ministries: Dr. Paul David Tripp is a pastor, event speaker, and author. He does a lot in the realm of Christian living and connecting the transforming power of Christ to everyday life. Find his resources at www.paultripp.com  

 

Dr. Albert Mohler: Is the President of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and probably the most intellectual individual I have ever met.  On this site, you will find numerous articles on a wide variety of topics.  Personally, I believe the best part will be his podcast called the Briefing.  The Briefing is about a twenty minute commentary on current news topics.  Find them at www.albertmohler.com

Minno:  Although this is a subscription site with a lot of videos, you get a free week to try it out.  I knew them as Jelly Telly when doing children’s ministry.  Probably the best set of videos they have is called “Buck Denver asks, ‘What’s in the Bible?'” Find them at www.gominno.com   

 

Interested in doing some reading during the days of isolation, then check out some of these following works.  Some of these are books I have introduced to Red Hill’s leadership and some are ones that I have read, am currently reading, or are in the stack of books to read. I believe every pastor has at least one stack of books to read. 

 

Quick reads about church.  The following four books are all written by Thom Rainer, the recently retired President of Lifeway.  All four find themselves in the realm of church revitalization and are useful for helping us look at our church and what we may need to do to make it better.  I have read all four of these and each has good points for us to take away.  Autopsy of a Deceased Church, Scrappy Church: God’s Not Done Yet, Becoming A Welcoming Church, and We Want You Here.     

 

Organic Outreach for Ordinary People by Kevin G. Harney.  This is a book that I am currently reading and enjoying as the author’s focus is on helping believers pass on the good news of Jesus in natural ways.  Best thing is it is not another system or program but based on Biblical practices to incorporate into your life to naturally share the gospel.    

 

 

Worship Matters Leading Others to Encounter the Greatness of God by Bob Kauflin.  I must confess that I have not personally read this work.  It is in my stack of books to read.  The book is to help the reader “understand the why and how of biblical worship.”
