Sermon Series: Shattered: The Story of Job

Sermon: The Gospel According to Job (Job 42:7-17)

Final week in the series

Verse:  “And the Lord restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.“ — Job 42:10

For the past six weeks, the book of Job has helped us meet God in the midst of our chaos and pain. As we finish our study of Job, we see that Job’s story also points us to the gospel itself and invites us to place our hope in Jesus, our Savior.

Music: Linzy Westman & Band.
Message: Dan Westman
Host: Scott Grant

Next Week:

Easter Sunday: Worship and celebration of the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Scott Grant will preach our Easter message.

WORSHIP

Sermon Series: Shattered: The Story of Job

Sermon: Worshiping in the Chaos (Job 40:6-42:17)

Sixth week in the series

Verse: “Then Job answered the LORD and said:  ‘I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted.'” — Job 42:1-2

At the end of the book of Job, we hear God’s second speech, Job’s final response, and the resolution to Job’s circumstances. We get a bigger picture of the complexity of the cosmos. God makes it clear that chaos still exists within his creation. But he assures Job that he contends with the chaos. As Job sees that and encounters God, he worships. As we seek God in our own suffering, Job’s path can be a guide to us for how to worship him in the chaos of our world.

Music: Caleb Markley & Band.
Message: Paul Taylor
Host: Scott Grant

Next Week:

We will conclude our study of Job with a teaching from Dan Westman.

Keep posting pictures of your gathering on our Facebook group page and tag them “#PBCMeetsHere”.

Sermon Series: Shattered: The Story of Job

Sermon: He Speaks in the Chaos (Job 38:1-40:5)

Fifth week in the series

Verse:  “Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind and said: ‘Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?'” — Job 38:1-2

Our world is full of chaos. The uncertainty surrounding our current pandemic has brought this fact into sharp focus for us. Can you hear God’s voice in the midst of the chaos? What does he have to say about the uncertainty that we are facing? As God finally speaks to Job in the midst of his suffering, we will hear what God has to say to us in the midst of our trials as well.

Music: Linzy Westman & Band.
Message: Dan Westman.
Host: Paul Taylor
Other: Communion

Next Week:

Paul Taylor will teach from Job 40:6-42:17.

Digital Ministries

Each ministry is determining how to best serve the Lord and our people during these difficult times. Some are already using videos and live stream to continue their activities. You can find children’s, youth, women’s, recovery, and seniors on the Stay Connected page, with more to come. If you’re not sure how to get involved in a specific ministry, go to the Get Connected webpage to contact a ministry leader.

Stay Connected

If you are interested in joining a small group of fellow PBCers for support, connection and prayer, you are invited to sign up for a Stay-Connected Group. Groups will use a variety of devices and apps to connect. Fill out a Join a Group Form to get plugged in.

If you are already part of a small group, community or an individual feeling led to support PBCers who are not connected during this season, consider signing up as a Group Lead. We will provide Group Leads with resources to shepherd your group and match you with people who would like to get plugged in. We are excited to see how God uses these groups to help our community support and encourage one another. For questions reach out to Rolana Smith.
