New series begins the weekend of April 23 Perhaps there’s no book in the Bible that’s the object of more interest, confusion, and speculation than Revelation. Most today tend to think that Revelation is about the end of the world. While it does have references to that, it’s not primarily about the end of the world. It’s about the end of the world – as we know it. Revelation or “Apocalypse” means “disclosure” or “unveiling.” It’s an opportunity to view what’s happening in our world around us from a “press box” perspective – a perspective “above” us. Revelation invites us to the end the world – as we know it – and into a new view of things around us. How we see the world around us makes a profound difference in how we live and respond to the world around us. Come ready for a bigger picture of the way things are, and the things that are to come. It’s the end of the world – as we know it. It’s “apocalypse.” Now.
First Service of the Weekend Thursdays Vista Ridge Campus Dinner at 6:00 pm ($5 for adults •$3 for kids) Service at 6:45 pm Gathering together on a weekly basis for worship, encouragement, teaching, and testimony makes a difference for the better in our lives. It’s our hope that offering this service on a weeknight will open new doors for reaching people. Consider making Thursday night your weekend worship service at The Branch.

Spring Women’s Event: Walk a Mile in His Shoes Saturday, May 6 Farmers Branch Campus 8:30 am - 2:00 pm Cost: $20 The two greatest commandments are simple: Love God, love your neighbor. But they’re not easy. Over the past year, we’ve faced a bitterly divisive presidential election, shootings in our city, and painful tensions in our own families. And that’s just on American soil. What practical insight can we learn from our Lord Jesus Christ who faced it all? Join us for our Spring Women’s Event as we explore together how to lace up our shoes of peace and follow Jesus into a deeper love for Him and others. We’ll be blessed to hear from speakers Schalee Sanchez and Stephanie Scott; a panel of informed leaders hosted by Lisa Castello; and conversations facilitated by Janice Ingram and Bev Selby of Lovers Lane United Methodist Church. Closing remarks will be delivered by a mystery guest speaker! This will be a Saturday filled with conversations! Don’t miss it.

This April, we are proud to partner with Vitamin Angels to support healthy living across the developing world.
Every 2 check-ins provides a year of vitamins for a child in need. Vitamin Angels’ mission is to help at-risk populations in need – specifically pregnant women, new mothers, and children under five – gain access to life-saving and lifechanging vitamins and minerals. In 2015, Vitamin Angels connected over 48,000,000 children and mothers in 54 countries, including the US, with the vital nutrients they need for a healthy foundation. Their high dose vitamin A capsules are unique: the vitamin A is stored in the liver and slow-released over time, which means children only need one dose every six months. Visit their Facebook page and website to learn more about what they do: Website: vitaminangels.org Facebook page: facebook.com/vitaminangels The hashtag this month is #vitamins4kids. Thanks for checking in for children in need!
How it works: We make a donation to a Kingdom-building cause every time our community checks in on Facebook. It’s a great way to tell your friends about The Branch Church, and do some good in the process. If you need some help checking in on Facebook, just ask any of our staff members and we’ll show you how.

A note from Paul and Linda Barner Fellowship, what does it mean? Literally, it means “sharing in common.” Our Valentine Luncheon was a wonderful example of success in Christian Fellowship. Thanks to all who helped to put on the event, and thanks to all who attended. Our group of 160+ shared a delicious lunch, bingo, door prizes, favors, and most of all the experience of love and joy brought to us by God in His house. Studying the book of John has been very special. We have learned that joy and fellowship are available to all of those who experience God’s presence in Jesus. Disciples coming together at events such as this past luncheon fulfill this. John teaches us that believers in Christ share a fellowship with God. Those who know and love God are joined together. Blessings, Paul & Linda Barner

Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered recovery program that meets EVERY week — rain or shine! We all have hurts, habits, and hang-ups, and CR is a program designed to help you find freedom. Come hear testimonies, find encouragement, and step forward in faith THIS WEEK! More about Celebrate Recovery: Celebrate Recovery (or CR) is based on God’s Word, the Bible. When Jesus taught the Sermon on the Mount, he began by stating “Eight Ways to Be Happy.” Today we call them the Beatitudes. From a conventional viewpoint, most of these statements didn’t make sense. They sounded like contradictions. But when we fully understand what Jesus is saying, we’ll realize that these eight principles are God’s road to recovery, wholeness, growth, and spiritual maturity.
to everything. That is a secret of happiness. When we stop wasting time fixing the blame, we have more energy to fix the problem. When we stop hiding our own faults and stop hurling accusations at others, then the healing power of Christ can begin working in our minds, wills, and emotions.
CR is forward-looking. Rather than wallowing in the past, or dredging up and rehearsing painful memories over and over, Celebrate Recovery focuses on the future. Regardless of what has already happened, the solution is to start making wise choices now and depend on Christ’s power to help us make those changes.
CR utilizes the biblical truth that we need each other in order to grow spiritually and emotionally. It is built around small group interaction and the fellowship of a caring community. There are many therapies, growth programs, and counselors today that are built around one-on-one interaction. But Celebrate Recovery is built on the New Testament principle that we don’t get well by ourselves. We need each other. Fellowship and accountability are two important components of spiritual growth.
CR emphasizes personal responsibility. We cannot control all that happens to us. But we can control how we respond
CR addresses all types of habits, hurts, and hang-ups. Some recovery programs deal only with alcohol or drugs or
EVERY TUESDAY
another single problem. But Celebrate Recovery is a “large umbrella” program under which a limitless number of issues can be dealt with. We are seeing hopeless marriages restored and people set free from all kinds of sinful habits, hang-ups, and hurts as they allow Jesus to be Lord in every area of their lives. To God be the glory! We’ll be praying for you.
