Singleness and the Glory of God

Saturday, November 3, 2007

Have you been deceived to think that God’s purpose for you is to be married or at least not alone? Are you spending your time trying to find “the One” and finding yourself frustrated and wondering what God is up to? Are you a Christian, but are wondering how to plug this in to your dating life? Know this: God’s purpose for you is to be holy and satisfied in Him — everything else is just details!

With special speakers:

Matthew Perry – Pastor, Boone’s Creek Baptist Church, Lexington, KY

Matthew has served as Pastor of Boone’s Creek since 2003. He has a passion for helping singles navigate through the lies of the culture to find their true north in the Gospel of Christ. He is married (didn’t get married until 27!) for nine years to Cindy and has four incredible children. He is currently pursuing his Doctor of Ministry at Southern Seminary in Louisville..

Mark Allan Combs – Pastor, Salem Baptist Church, Salem, KY

Mark has served as Pastor of Salem since January 2007. Prior to that, he served as Associate Pastor/Minister of Youth at Pleasureville Baptist Church here in Kentucky. Mark defied conventional wisdom and showed that youth are hungry for and can absorb deep truths about the Scriptures and helped prepare them for college life and all its challenges. Mark is married to Alana and has two beautiful children, Cassidy and Seth. He is currently pursing a Doctor of Ministry at Southern Seminary in Louisville..

Josh Martin (worship leader) – Youth Pastor, Harvest Community Church, Eminence, KY

Josh not only serves as Youth Pastor, but leads a God-centered Christian band known as “The Josh Martin Band.” His teachings and songs challenge all who hear to move away from being too easily pleased with what the world offers and to mine out the treasures of the Gospel of Christ. Josh’s band will be leading our time of praise and worship. Josh is married to Christy. Check out Josh’ blog at http://joshuamartin.wordpress.com .

Kevin Whitt – Lead Pastor, Harvest Community Church, Eminence, KY

In 2000, God led Kevin to plant a church in Henry County which sought to be God-centered, biblically-based, and make an impact for the Kingdom in the community. Kevin knows about how to be strategic with the time given him to the glory of God. Kevin is married to Sharla and they have two boys, Will and Zach.
