Continuing Psalm 23

I am still in the midst of my preaching series on Psalm 23. God is still blessing the people of God at RSBC in Jamaica, NY. We have been enjoying the blessings of God and the Worship has been awesome! God is doing a new thing in us and with us at our church.

Please continue to pray for us as we go forward in the Lord!

Psalm 23

Grace and Peace!

I started a preaching series this past Sunday on Psalm 23. The feedback from the worshippers from RSBC was encouraging! Some said they never heard Psalm 23 preached and taught the way God had given it. Many said they were waitng for the next insallment! I have not heard the tape yet. My wife, who just happens to be my Associate Minister, records me every Sunday and usually lets me hear the recording. For some unknown reason she has not let me hear the recording.

Anyway, please pray for me as I continue this series on Psalm 23!

Abundant Blessings!

Revival @ Rising Star Baptist Church, Jamaica, NY (aka RSBC)

Grace, mercy and peace!

My brothers and sisters, I write today with the joy of Jesus. Please note that from here on as I write when I speak about the church I serve as Shepherd, the Rising Star Baptist Church, I will be refering the name as RSBC.

We are closing our Revival tonight @ RSBC. We are finished with the first night and oh what a time we had last night. Our revivalist, or as some may say evangelist, Pastor Victor J. Lewis of the Friendship Baptist Church, Roslyn, NY spoke from the topic, Insistent Faith from Mark 10:46-52. What a Word he gave to us last night! We are in anticipation for what God is going to do through the Man of God on tonight as we close out our revival.

I write today to say to all of us us that we must cry out insistently to God about our situation and let Him know what is wrong so that He can make it right! God cannot make anything right for us unless we ask Him and tell Him what is wrong.

I was truly blessed. I look forward to tonight and hearing what God is going to say through Pastor Lewis.

If you are reading this blog, please pray for the spiritual success of this revival!

Abundant Blessings!

The Challenge of Preaching the BIBLE!

As a Pastor in Downstate New York, I have noticed many unusual challenges that face the Body of Christ. It has become very disturbing to me that those of us who are the Shepherds of Congregations do not deal with sin as we should. I would like to pose a question for those of you who are possibly reading this blog and would like your honest answer.



Are those of us whom God has Chosen, Anointed, and Appointed to lead congregations to stuck in ourselves that we have forgotten what we are to preach or have we become to afraid to preach against sin because we may lose our pulpits?



I want to hear from everybody who will respond!



Abundant Blessings,



Pastor Norman W. Scott
