In these days of dry weather, I’ve mostly thought of big trees as having roots that go deep into the soil to support their weight and reach moisture. While that’s true of some trees with deep tap roots, most tree roots don’t go deeper than 6-8 feet. Most trees tend to extend their roots shallow and WIDE and they rely on their surface roots for oxygen, moisture, and nutrients.
There is something in nature, though, that has some serious depth. Meet the massive iceberg. Big icebergs are known to move easily against the prevailing winds. That’s because only about 10% of an iceberg’s mass is above the water, with the other 90% being below the surface. As such, water currents easily dominate what’s happening above the surface.
This week we kick off a new 7-week sermon series entitled “How to Become a Better You” and we’ll be doing a lot of “looking under the hood” of our lives to become more emotionally and spiritually healthy. Our topic in week 1 is: “Tending to What Lies Below the Surface.” I hope you will join us this the series and for worship each Sunday. FaithPoint’s Campus is located at 1051 270 th St. W. New Prague. OUR NEW FALL WORSHIP SCHEDULE STARTS THIS Sunday AT 8:30 AND 10:00 AM.
Live Streaming also available at 10:00 AM.
