A NEW DECADE: Our Future Depends On What We Do Now
February 2010
Volume 2010, Issue 1
A NEW DECADE: Our Future Depends On What We Do Now
PHILIPPIANS 3:13-14
In Philippians 3:13-14, Paul tells us, “Brethren, I
do not count myself to have apprehended; but
this one thing I do, forgetting those things which
are behind and reaching forth to those things
which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the
prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”
It matters not who you are or how right you
think you have lived, you have not on your own
merit lived well enough to get into heaven. We
ponder our future but we never really think
much about our part in that future. Do the
events of our lives have any great significance in
determining who we are? Yes they do and we
have a role to play in these events. Some of the
events may take us on a path that is not pleasant
but it will aid us in getting to the destiny that
God has for us.
If we are honest with ourselves, we would admit
that we have not been perfect although that may
have been the picture we projected. In life we all
have done wrong and done right. What’s in the
past, is in the past. We can't change things that
have been done - whether good or bad. We can
only do something about the “now,” with the understanding that the “now” has an immediate
impact on the future. Paul said that we are to
forget those things which are behind and reach
forward to those things which are ahead.
The question is: What is ahead? I can not foretell the future but as far as eternity is concerned,
I know what the Lord Jesus has promised for
those who would call upon His name. Romans
10:9-10 says, “if you confess with your mouth
the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that
God has raised Him from the dead, you will be
saved. For with the heart one believes unto
righteousness, and with the mouth confession is
made unto salvation.” Romans 12:1-2 says, “I
beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies
of God, that you present your bodies a living
sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your
reasonable service. And do not be conformed to
this world, but be transformed by the renewing
of your mind, that you may prove what is that
good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
Heaven is ahead for those who accept the gift of
life and abide in the Lord Jesus. Jesus said, "Let
not your heart be troubled; you believe in God,
believe also in Me. In my Father's house are
many mansions; if it were not so, I would have
told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if
I go and prepare a place for you, I will come
again and receive you to Myself; that where I
am, there you may be also.”
Paul realized that he had not reached the level of
perfection that God required. However, he was
willing to press toward the goal - the prize of the
high calling of God in Christ Jesus. We too must
press toward the high call which is in Christ Jesus. Our citizenship is in heaven, from which we
also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus
Christ.
Your future depends on what you do NOW.
Choose life or choose death. Your choice determines heaven or hell. You choose!
Min. Rudolph Britton
As I move about from day to day, from place to place, it appears that we are very busy
people. We are so busy that it seems that there’s just not enough time in the day to do all
we need to do.
If we were to take note of our own lives and be totally honest with ourselves, we would
conclude that many of us have trouble managing our time and efforts. There’s always
something to do, always somewhere to go and always someone to meet. We are always
moving, as if we were in a marathon race or on some strict time schedule. We get up in
the morning worrying about what we got to do in the evening and lay down at night trying
to figure out how to handle the things of tomorrow. Yet the Bible reminds us in Matthew
6:34, “Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the
things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.”
Our lives are like a roller coaster: We get up and start running in the morning and by nightfall we fall into
bed too tired to pray, saying, “Lord you know my heart.” It seems that there’s always something we’ve just
got to do. And in the final analysis, even when we’ve done our best, there’s still something we forgot to do
and we, for all our efforts, are still not being blessed.
Another reason for our being so busy is that somehow we have come to equate the value of life and the importance of an individual with how much a person really does. Yet, I want to leave you with the thought that
being busy or doing a lot of things does not mean that we are being blessed.
Though we have a lot to do, and a lot of places to go, and our calendars are full, it does not mean we are experiencing a good, wholesome, quality and blessed life. There are a lot of people that are busy today, but they
cannot find a blessing in all their being busy. The expected and hoped results of their efforts go unfulfilled.
They work from sun up to sun down, and are miserable and weary at the end of the day, wondering if things
will ever get better or will they ever find any joy in all that they do. Many of us today, when we look at our
lives, will admit that we have so much going on, but so little of it brings any real fulfillment or satisfaction.
In the book of Ecclesiastes the writer summed it up by saying, “I looked on all the work my hands had
wrought, and all the labors I had labored to do, and behold all was vanity, and a vexation of spirit and
there was no profit in it under the sun.” It seems the problem is we are very busy, but not very blessed.
What we must do in times such as these is to seek God for His guidance and His Word for our direction. We
need to stop and ask God: “Is this what I need to be doing?” We must allow God to set the course for our
lives, for He knows far better for us than we know for ourselves. We do not please God by doing a lot of
things, but rather by doing a few things well. God wants our lives to be well rounded and always with time to
serve and worship Him. So often we become so bogged down in being busy that we find little or no time for
God. If we have no time for God then there is no way we can find blessings in the things that we do. There is
nothing in life more important than our giving God His deserved time.
Let us slow down enough to reassess our efforts, and then ask God to “order our footsteps in His Word.” Let
God direct our every action and effort so that in the end we can and will hear His welcoming words: “Well
done my good and faithful servant.”
Let us seek more for God’s blessings in all that we do in our lives and not merely being busy.
Your Pastor,
Rev. Daniel Sanders

Marriage is a lifelong process designed to teach one to see the needs of another person as more important
than their own. It's a difficult transition because it's not natural. This ministry exists to aid couples in their marriage to become more and more purpose-driven -- to focus on the needs of others in balancing the purposes of
worship, fellowship, discipleship, service, and missions.
OBJECTIVE OF THIS MINISTRY IS
"Building Marriages with No Limits in Christ."
We trust God and His Word on marriage.
We minister to relationships by teaching and encouraging all couples
to learn about, live, and celebrate marriage the way God ordained it to be.
We strive to move from married couples to an “Anointed Oneness!”
We believe that there is nothing we can do that can have a more significant impact on our family then to build a
Biblical, God honoring relationship with our spouse. Laying a foundation for seeing our marriage relationship
through Biblical lens is our goal.
We want to have a better understanding of how to build a relationship that will bring joy to our hearts, peace to
our families, and honor to God. Our children will learn from our marriages. They will come to know how to have a
better relationship with God.
There is no magic formula , but to have clarity about where we are and
what we are called to be in Christ in this union called ...marriage
The Couples’ Ministry meets on the 2nd and 5th Sunday during BTU.
PURPOSE: To minister to the needs of women from all walks of life by focusing on issues that directly
affect women in our world.
GOAL: To strengthen and encourage the women of SBC, in the community, and beyond to develop a
closer relationship with God by Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit.
The Women’s Ministry fellowships are held on the Friday before the 2nd Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
Please come and be a part of this fellowship.
It is open to ALL women of SBC. Guests are also welcome.
Upcoming fellowship date for this quarter: March 12th

Financial Ministry
“Stewards of HIS Blessings ~ Managers of HIS Possessions”
BASED ON CROWN FINANCIAL MINISTRIES MATERIAL
INTENT OF THIS TRAINING:
This Financial Ministry is authorized to exist by the Pastor and will focus on Financial Counseling and Financial
Teaching.
FINANCIAL TEACHING
Once individuals within the church have completed the required training, the teaching will begin. Crown has designed a comprehensive program to equip people of all ages to handle money God’s way.
FOR ADULTS
Small Group Study ~ This study is the foundation to the entire program, because usually the greatest life change
takes place in small groups. Participants are encouraged and held accountable to apply God’s financial principles. The small group study is a 10-week in-depth study of what scripture teaches about money and possessions.
The group meets for 2 hours every week. Graduates from these studies will be counted on to deliver additional
training for the church.
Did you know that the Bible contains over 2,350 verses pertaining to money”
You will learn how to apply and teach God’s Financial Principles and gain financial wisdom for a lifetime.
Learn what Scripture teaches about managing all your possession.
TOPICS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
Getting Out of Debt
Spending
Giving
Earning Money
Saving
Budgeting
Training Children
Investing
Budget Counseling ~ Budget Counselors are trained to help people use a budget. This personal, one-on-one
attention is necessary for many people to begin budgeting.
Financial Seminars ~ The seminar is the most efficient way to quickly expose many people to God’s financial
principles. The seminar is six hours long and each participant receives a manual.
Sunday School Video Series ~ The Discovering God’s Way of Handling Money series is comprised of eight 20minute videos, each taught by a gifted communicator. There is a group discussion after each video presentation.
FOR CHILDREN, TEENS, AND COLLEGE STUDENTS
The ABC’s of Handling Money God’s Way ~ For children 7 and younger. Includes activities to help make learning basic financial principles fun and exciting. Designed to be very “hands on,” because children this age learn
from doing.
The Secret of Handling Money God’s Way ~ For children ages 8-12. For children with a financial challenge
learn the secret of giving, saving, spending and much more. The principles are imbedded in a story of adventure
that captures and holds the attention of children.
Handling Money God’s Way Teen Study ~ Uses creative graphics to cover practical topics: Balancing Your
Checkbook, Choosing Friends, and Developing A Resume.
College Study ~ Addresses the issues college students need to know about at this formative time of life. This
may be taught in a small group or classroom setting.

The Singles’ Ministry and Shoes-4-Souls, Inc. Christmas Stocking Shoe Drive was a grand success. The shoe drive was conducted November 15th through December 31, 2009. Thanks to the
generous and enthusiastic giving of the Springfield Family, 776 pairs of shoes were collected.
These contributions resulted in a 64 percent surplus over our projected goal of 500 pairs of
shoes.
On behalf of the Singles’ Ministry, Jennifer Pierce and the Shoes-4-Souls Staff, and the many
shoe recipients, we say “THANK YOU.” We could never have achieved this great feat without
your unselfish acts of kindness that truly exemplifies the fact that Springfield is a blessed Body of
Christ who is willing to share their blessings with others. We must always remember that many of
our blessings are bestowed unto us through our willingness to give to others from the heart without expectation.
We will be conducting other shoe and clothes drives throughout the 2010 year as a part of our
Singles’ Community Outreach efforts. So, set aside any items that you may want to donate in the
coming months. Keep your eyes and ears open for forthcoming announcements.
As always, we invite all Singles join us on the 4th Saturday of every month at 10:00 a.m. for our
monthly meetings unless otherwise announced differently. God Bless.

JALEN DAWES (SYRS) entered his artwork titled “From Dream to Reality” in an
art contest sponsored by the North Carolina Association of Educators. The Human and Civil Rights Commission named Jalen the state winner for grades 3-5.
The contest was in observance of Martin Luther King Jr.’s life and commitment
to the ideals of equality, justice and freedom for all Americans. Jalen and his
parents, Dea. William and Sis. Donna Dawes, were invited to the NCAE’s Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Banquet held on January 15, 2010, at the NCAE
Center where Jalen received his plaque. Jalen’s artwork will be on display at
the NCAE Center, 700 South Salisbury Street, Raleigh, North Carolina, until
the end of February. Congratulations Jalen!
On December 12, 2009, I received a Master of Public Administration from
North Carolina Central University. During the 18-month program, I had an opportunity to intern for two weeks in Monrovia, Liberia. The masters program
was challenging. While a good educational experience, it afforded me the opportunity to accomplish a goal I set for myself. I give God the glory and honor
for giving me strength to complete the program. I am currently working with the
City of Durham but I am praying and trusting God for a door to open for me with
the U.S. Federal Government. I thank God for blessing me with a prayerful,
supportive and loving family and my Springfield Baptist Church family during
this life changing experience.

1812-1901
REV. JOHN JASPER (preacher, philosopher and orator) was born a slave in Virginia
and matured to become one of Virginia’s
most celebrated preachers. He was the
youngest of 24 children. He was converted
to Christianity in 1839. Secretly, he taught
himself to read and write. He studied the
Bible and eventually answered the call to
preach
Jasper delivered his sermons in the dialect of the southern
slave. The pictures this gifted preacher painted with words
left thousands of men and women, both black and white
spellbound. Jasper illuminated the scriptures with vivid details. In 1867, he became the first black man to establish a
church (Sixth Mount Zion Baptist Church) in postwar Richmond, VA. The church began with 9 members and at his
death they numbered nearly 2,000 (more than one-third of
whom were white).
Page 10
Jasper achieved national fame in 1878 when he first
preached his “De Sun Do Move” sermon. He delivered this
sermon by invitation more than 250 times to large audiences and once before the Virginia General Assembly. This
sermon was an attempt to prove through biblical references
that the sun moves around the earth. If someone in the
Bible could ask the sun to stand still, Jasper preached, it
had to be moving. Thousands of people (of all races)
flocked to his church for standing-room only lectures on the
powers and mysteries of God. He is considered the last of
the old-styled antebellum preachers who possessed great
oratory skills.
Jasper’s accomplishments are even more remarkable given
the fact that he was a slave during the first twenty-five years
of his ministry work — a time when Virginia law expressly
prohibited slaves from preaching.
A leader in the community and the city of Richmond, VA.,
Rev. Jasper has been the subject of many books and related articles describing the black religious experience.

A love Divine
A love so pure
A love that will endure

Learn the ABC’s of Heart Attack Prevention
Preventing a heart attack is simpler than you make think. It’s as easy as ABC to reduce your
risk and live a longer, stronger life.
Sounds simple doesn’t it? So why is coronary heart disease the single major
cause of death and stroke the No. 3 killer in the U.S.? One reason is undeniably
a lack of commitment to a heart-healthy lifestyle. Your lifestyle is not only your best
defense against heart and stroke, it’s also your responsibility. A heart-healthy lifestyle (Avoiding tobacco, Being more active and Choosing good nutrition can reduce
all of the modifiable risk factors for heart disease, heart attack and stroke including:
