Hi! Welcome from the staff and congregation of First Assembly of God in Mountain Home, Arkansas.
Pastor Mike & Cathy Howell Mountain Home is nestled in the heart of the Ozark Mountains in north central Arkansas. The city is a growing commercial and health care center for the region but it still retains a wonderful small town atmosphere. The scenic beauty of the mountains, two lakes, and a great trout fishing river give the Mountain Home area a special quality that many of us have fallen in love with. First Assembly is a vibrant, growing fellowship committed to taking the message of Christ's love to our generation. You will find that our people are warm and friendly and that the worship services are a lively mix of contemporary worship and solid ministry of the Word. Unabashedly Pentecostal, the worship services are built around the joy of the Lord and a deep sense of the presence of the Holy Spirit. From the nursery to the Prime timers every ministry of the church is designed to reach, teach, and serve in His love. Please consider this greeting an invitation to visit First Assembly. |

Today's Word
I made an interesting trip one day with a coworker. He invited me along on a hunt for gold. We would be panning for it in one of the rivers in central Idaho. There was one part of the trip that especially stayed with me. It had nothing to do with nuggets or shiny things and actually happened as we were trekking down to the creek.
My coworker paused for a moment and reached down and picked up an odd shaped rock. He asked me if I knew what it was? I did not. He said that it was 'leaverite' and then explained. "Totally worthless", he said as he threw it down; "that's why you 'leaver-right' where you found it".
A lot of stuff we find in life falls under the same catagory. It needs to be left alone or at the very least, thrown back. Without value, we pick up these 'rocks of life' hoping to make some use of them yet knowing down deep how worthless that they are.
The Bible classifies worthy stuff as 'gold, silver, or precious stones' and the worthless as 'wood, hay, or stubble'. Is it time in your life for a house cleaning? Have you picked up 'stuff' that brings nothing to your journey through life other than additional loads? It's never a bad time to check for these things.
