John Sievering Senior Pastor Scott Jones Family Pastor Tiffany Schlup Office Administrator Website Facebook BensonBaptist Twitter DirectorofComm Are you ready to run? Do you have a hobby that you really enjoy? Well I love running! Running is a form of exercise that you either love or completely dislike. On average I run 3-4 miles a day, but I have also ran a half marathon and I would like to train for a full marathon. To run a half or full marathon it takes a runner many months of training in order to build up endurance, a proper diet, and mental skill. Most people can t just wake up one day go outside and run 26.2 miles without stopping. If you are that person congrats! However, for us other folks we need some training. :) In Hebrews Scripture talks about the most important race the race of life! Hebrews 12:1-3 says, Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God s throne. Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won t become weary and give up. If you have ever been to a marathon you will notice that runners typically start the race early in the morning when it is still brisk outside. Once the race starts and the sun comes up many runners will take off their jackets and throw them on the side of the road (The jackets in the race I ran were donated to a local shelter). They do this because they are warm and the jacket is extra weight that could potentially slow them down. Just like how things in life can be a burden or weight, we need to do away with anything that will hinder us from Christ. This may mean you need to limit your TV, electronics, busy activities, shopping, eating, etc. Whatever it is that is keeping you away and distant from Christ needs to be given up so that you are able to run the race. To be honest running is hard especially when you first start. Your lungs hurt, it s hard to breath, and you don t think you can actually run far enough. However, over time and training daily, your body will adjust and running will become easier and even enjoyable. Your endurance will be built up, your breathing controlled and you know you can run the distance because you have done it before. This is a similar type of training that we need to have with God s Word. When we get into His Word we will recognize that there are things that we are currently doing that don t align with Him. Sometimes we don t want to or aren't ready to change and when God continues to press in to our training it can hurt. It hurts because he is training us to run from our sin instead of living in it. However, once we learn to run with His instruction it will become easier. We will be able to recognize when sin is creeping into our lives. Instead of running into sin we will be running towards God. Do you have your running shoes on? Come and join me in the race of life! I can guarantee the finish line will be worth it! Tiffany Schlup 1

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

NEW YEAR NEW MIND Have you been thinking about what this New Year will bring? I am a planner and I like to have my schedule lined up knowing that my husband and I are spiritually stable, financially stable, emotionally stable, and staying in shape. Although, this may be what I hope for and try to align with unfortunately it s just not how life always works. Life can be difficult, but at the same time we can recognize that life is so good! Why? Because God is good! Even in the midst of tribulations if we really look we can see God moving allowing us to see and experience joy. James 1:2-8 says, Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do. Life is a gift given by the magnificent creator. He designed each one of us with a drive to be in a consistent relationship with Him. He deeply wants to pore into us reaching our innermost being. He wants to know that when times get tough we will persevere and still say God you are good! Will you take the opportunity to look at life s difficulties this year, as a chance to show God just how much faith you have in Him? He is waiting for you to respond to His call to be in a deeper relationship with Him than ever before. Will you answer the call? Tiffany Schlup SERVING OPPORTUNITIES...IS GOD CALLING YOU?

5 BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS & SERVING CHRIST S W D O R Ecclesiastes 5: 1-7 Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Go near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools, who do not know that they do wrong. Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart to utter anything before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few. A dream comes when there are many cares, and many words mark the speech of a fool. When you make a vow to God, do not delay to fulfill it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfill your vow. It is better not to make a vow than to make one and not fulfill it. Do not let your mouth lead you into sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, My vow was a mistake. Why should God be angry at what you say and destroy the work of your hands? Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore fear God. 5
