How to Read the Bible

November 9th, 2007, 7:30 PM, Lighthouse (Carey) Building ACC

Do you ever wonder what is the right way to read the Bible? Have you ever read a passage and not really understand what you just read? Do you want to know how you can "hear" and "listen" to God when you read the Bible? Do you want to know what the passage means? Come this Friday to Cornerstone and hear our very own Tina Tsuei teach us about how to read the Bible. Tina Tsuei is the wife of Pastor Gaylord and has two kids - Charis and Silas. So, please join us as she teaches us about God's live Word - His magnificent love story to us.

Evangelism Outreach

November 10th, 2007

This Saturday, Alex Chen will be leading a team to witness to the lost in downtown Austin. We will witness 1-on-1 by giving out Gospel tracts and speaking with the lost. Set aside your fears and expectations and remember that Chris is worthy of our love and obendience, regardless of the results or what we get out of it. Meet at Alex's home at 7 PM to carpool (contact him at 512.560.0583 or alexchen@alumni.rice.edu).

REVEAL Survey

This is very important to our church! Time frame November 5th to November 26th!!

As a church, we want to do everything we can to support your spiritual growth. So we're asking everyone who calls ACC their church home to take a Spiritual Life Survey at www.revealnow.com/SLsurvey/?church=203 (please be sure this survey is passed on to your fellowships and small groups). The survey findings will help shape our decisions in creating the best possible ministry strategies to bring us closer to God. Thanks in advance for participating!

**Please complete the survey no later than 11/26** If you have any questions, please ask the Leadership Team (Pastor Gaylord, Andy Lee, Chris Chun, Jamie Ricks, Julian Chen, Alex Chen, Winston Woo, Geoff Prewett, Steve Luong, Bob Chin, Josh Chen) or email Marilyn at maril@alumni.rice.edu.

[Here are a few clarifications as you're going through the survey:
1) We only have "Main adult services" (not young adult or mid-week services).
2) Pastor Gaylord has been pastoring for 6-10 years.]

John Ortberg - Esther

November 2nd, 2007, 7:30 PM

This week we'll be watching John Ortberg's sermon on Esther. He has a great explanation of Esther and very challenging message on following God whole-heartedly. This is one of the messages that has challenged me (Geoff) the most, and some of what Ortberg says has become part of my vocabulary, because he speaks about our root sin, the sin that invisibly underlies all that we do. Our theme for this year is "Love God and the fruit will follow" and Ortberg gives a very concrete way of identifying the main things that get in our way of loving God.

I hope you will join us this Friday at 7:30 pm in the Carey (Lighthouse) building and hear John Ortberg speak on our shadow mission.

Troy's Adventure

October 26th, 2007, 7:30 PM

Our very own Troy Wong will be sharing about his trip with the team from GPCCC to Nepal. He will be sharing about the work God has been doing in the lives of the Sherpas that Troy and his team has ministered to. We're really excited to be able to hear about him and just what God has been showing him. Troy's number is 512.656.1150. Snacks will be provided.
