I think it will be helpful for our pastoral staff to explain some of their ministry priorities over the coming weeks. I will begin the series this Sunday evening at 6:00 with “The Priority of Preaching,” a subject very close to my heart!
Then, Lord willing, the schedule will be as follows:
- February 4 AM: “The Priority of the Family” by Nathaniel Pearce
- February 4 PM: “The Priority of Caring” by Jim Pile
- February 11 AM: “The Priority of Evangelism” by Sibu Rajappan
- February 18 AM: “The Priority of Worship” by Tim Hathaway
- February 25 AM: “The Priority of Missions” by Jim Cashwell — this is the opening Sunday of the Missions Conference
- February 25 PM: “The Priority of Discipleship” by Rob Reece
I will preach at the closing service of the Missions Conference on Sunday morning, March 3. Then we will resume the series on 1 Peter on March 10, and that evening, Cameron Engle will speak on “The Priority of the Next Generation.”

When you experience personal pain or see someone go through something terrible, where is God? Why do these things happen? And how does God or faith in God help when you feel anxious? In this new RQRT episode #3, Pastor Munro discusses biblical answers to these tough questions.
