| | | | | | We all have stories of things that we have witnessed in life. From sporting events to life-changing moments, to devastating encounters, to unbelievable sights. And with each of these things we have witnessed, we have a story to tell. Today we navigate our fourth G here at Timothy, GO. And God through out Scriptures has called people and prepared people to GO. What are we supposed to do? Witness, of course. Yet this has become a very awkward thing for many of us to the point where we don’t even feel we know how to do it. As we look at the Scriptures, we recognize what the calling is about, why it is necessary, and how to pursue it as God continue to form us as His church. |

|
| | | The church in Scriptures is described as the “bride of Christ.” As we gather as Timothy Lutheran Church and School, the question is, do we look like Christ’s bride? And the answer is probably “not always.” So, how does Timothy Lutheran Ministries pursue the identity God has given to us? Well, throughout our history here in Blue Springs, we have sought to stay grounded in that identity by rallying around a vision. That vision is to “transform lives through Christ.” Through August 31, we are going to come back to that vision grounded in biblical truths and refresh our hearts and minds to the calling and commitment we must walk as Christ's bride, right where He put us. |

| | | Timothy Lutheran School Ministries began the year with a beautiful reminder of God’s promises—a rainbow! We gathered for chapel to center our hearts on Him as we launch into a year of learning, growth, and faith. Our theme, "Let’s Make a Joyful Noise!" (Psalm 98:4), sets the tone for what we know will be a Christ-filled year. We can’t wait to see how God works through our students, families, and staff. Here’s to a joyful, Spirit-led school year ahead! |
