the think|14 weekend schedule
Join the entire College Park Church family for a morning worship service with Dr. John Piper preaching
WELCOME TO THINK|14
Thank you for choosing to spend time with us this weekend. We have been praying and planning for this for a long time. Our THINK weekends come early in the year to remind us that theology is for everyone who desires to follow Jesus and is the foundation of all we do here as a church. We want to know Him.
This is our sixth THINK event, and we have seen God bless each of them. We have a gifted man of God to proclaim God’s Word; we have great books at great prices for everyone in the family; we have kidTHINK (Friday evening) for our next generation because “theology is for everyone”, and we have great fellowship with God’s people.
Godhas been very kind to us in giving us Dr. John Piper as His spokesman to minister the Word to us. Many of us have been greatly influenced by the ministry of Dr. Piper, and it is a true blessing from God that we as a family can share in God’s Word through this faithful servant. We are excited and glad you’re here! We pray God’s favor on this special weekend that comes from God’s gracious hand.
Soli Deo Gloria (to God alone be the glory), Joe Bartemus
Pastor of Theological Development
