Earlier this week, Terry Beckwith (Outreach Chair) and I had the opportunity to meet with leaders from Sequoyah Middle School, our neighbors just across the street, to listen and learn how First Christian Church Broken Arrow can better serve students and families in our community.

Pentecost Sunday is one of the most joyful and meaningful days in the life of the Church. It’s the day we remember the gift of the Holy Spirit and the birth of the Church in Acts 2—the moment when God gathered people from many places and formed them into one community with a shared purpose and a shared hope.

I haven’t done the research, but I’m fairly confident that no one has ever come to faith in Christ because of a church marquee sign. At best, marquee signs help a church become visible in its community.
