NYC/CPT: BBCN/Hope City!

We at Bronx Bethany remain grateful to God for the life and ministry of Reverend David Slinger, his family, and his ministry colleagues. As we wrap up our reflections from Pastor David's sermons last weekend (Genesis 12:1-5), let's remember a few statements he shared (paraphrased here):


  • When God speaks, His problem becomes our problem. He calls us to compassion and accountability.
  • Are we prepared to do whatever it takes to satisfy God?
  • Do we trust God in every endeavor?
  • The source of our livelihood is Christ Jesus. 
  • The Spirit of God is continually having conversation with us. We are made for His pleasure, not for the pleasure of the church or the pastor or anyone else.
  • Whatever God says, we do. He is in control.
  • When God says we need to go, we don't go alone. The Triune God goes with us.


Lord, You have called us not only to hear Your word, but to act upon Your word. Give us ears to hear, minds to understand, hearts to obey, hands to work, feet to go where You send us, and grace to endure. Amen.
