Skeletons in Jesus’ Family Tree (1 of 5)
Series: You’ve Got the Time

Matthew 1:1-17


Today we launch a special time for you and our church. You've Got the Time is more than a sermon series, it's a spiritual growth campaign. It's time where you are empowered to finally finish the entire New Testament in a little more than a month.

You can pick up free mp3s at any of our exits as you leave today. Our entire church family is beginning today. If you're doing with me, just put on one the wristbands to remind yourself. If you have questions, see anyone in the green shirts. I'll be preaching on selected Scriptures throughout 40 days as you listen.

''All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.'' (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
