Sunday Gathering - August 9th

Because the church’s building is still in a level 3 evacuation zone, we will not be gathering there on Sunday morning. Instead, we will gather for Sunday worship at Faith Bible Church at 1:00 pm.

Address: 440 W Cora Ave, Spokane, WA 99205

--------

On August 1st, our Spokane community suffered a nearly incomprehensible disaster as fires tore through our city — including the neighborhood we love and call home, where our church building is also located.

To date, 6 families have suffered a complete loss of their home, property, and possessions, and nearly half of our roughly 400-member congregation has been displaced, living in temporary housing due to necessary evacuations — with friends, relatives, in hotels, or other accommodations.

Many people and churches have asked how they can specifically help, and we have set up a Fire Relief Fund for our church.

These resources will be used to care for the immediate, mid-term, and long-term needs of ITC members, and as the Lord gives opportunity, for the good and upbuilding of others in our area.

Although there is much tragedy, we grieve with great hope because of the goodness and faithfulness of the Lord.

If you or your church desire to help and serve our church and those we're connected to, please direct your giving to the Indian Trail Church – Fire Relief Fund.

Home Group Discussion Questions for YOU ARE...OPPOSED:
-In your experience, do Christians talk too much or too little about spiritual warfare? Why do you think that this is?
-There are two errors that can creep in when approaching the topic of spiritual warfare: 1) not giving enough attention to the spiritual threats of the enemy, and 2) giving too much weight to the work of the enemy. In what ways could both of these be damaging to the life of the body of Christ?
-What evidence do you see in the Bible of the existence and work of Satan?
-Notice how many references to "standing" are in this passage. Why is this such a good image for the Christian life?
-Spend time as a group discussing how each part of the armor of God is unique, and how all of them are an expression of "being strong in the Lord".
-In what ways does prayer enter in to this spiritual battle? How does this find expression in your own life? Does this passage change how you view prayer in any way?

Recommended Worship Songs for YOU ARE...OPPOSED:
We have a terrible enemies in sin and Satan. In the song, Psalm 62, by Aaron Keys, we are encouraged to fight sin and temptation with the power of the Gospel. And the classic hymn, It Is Well with My Soul, reassures as that through trials and temptations, our souls are secure in Christ.

Psalm 62

It Is Well With My Soul
