God Rules We Sinned God Provided Jesus Gives We Respond
God Rules: The Bible tells us that God created everything, and He is in charge of everything (Genesis 1:1; Revelations 4:11; Colossians 1:16-17)
We Sinned: Since the beginning of time everyone has chosen to disobey God (Romans 3:23). The Bible calls this sin. Because God is holy, God will not be around sin. Sin separates us from God and deserves God’s punishment of death (Romans 6:23).
God Provided: John 3:16 tells us that God sent His Son, Jesus, the perfect solution to our sin problem, to rescue us from the punishment we deserve. It’s something we, as sinners, could never earn on our own. Jesus alone saves us (Ephesians 2:8-9).
Jesus Gives: Jesus lived a perfect life but chose to die on the cross for our sins. Jesus rose from the dead after three days. Because Jesus gave up His life for us, we can be welcomed into a right relationship with God and be part of His family for eternity. This is the best gift ever (Romans 5:8; 2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Peter 3:18).
We Respond: It’s not enough to just know the Good News! We must respond to the Gospel. In order to spend eternal life with God one must ADMIT to God that you are a sinner. REPENT and turn away from self and sin to Jesus (Romans 3:23; 6:23; Acts 3:19; 1 John 1:9). BELIEVE in your heart that Jesus alone saves you through what He has already done on the cross (John 3:16; 14:6, Romans 5:8). CONFESS to others that Jesus is your Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9-10, 13).

After receiving our Prayer Church from a sweet lady at our church a couple of weeks ago, we reached out to 864 Design Company about getting some made to use as part of our ministry. 864 Design Company was so happy to help and be a small part of our ministry, and we are truly thankful. We are looking forward to gifting these Prayer Churches to other families as part of our ministry and to share God's story and love for them.
Thank you to Claire Cordes and Johnson Ferry Baptist Church in Marietta, GA for donating Bibles to Tryston's Hope. We are so thankful and look forward to getting these Bibles in the hands of children and families who need to hear God's Word. Please email us if you need a Bible.
Through our Bible ministry we have been able to give Bibles to several local area churches to be used in their adult and youth Bible study classes and worship services.
