It's a book that proclaims the Power--the Holy Spirit, who builds up the church and is also my theology of ministry for over 30 years as a pastor! I answer common questions brought to the pastor like, "Why isn't everyone healed?" and

 Presenting my paper at the
Stone-Campbell Journal Conference
Welcome! A warm word of welcome to this website! I trust you will not only come to know me better, but will find the visit enriching and helpful for yourself. The goal in my teaching ministry and as a pastor-scholar is that the congregation and students would study the Bible in both a devotional and scholarly manner. In addition, I agree with Alexander Campbell, the founder of the movement of churches which I serve as a pastor, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), as he wrote, "I have no idea of adding to the catalogue of new sects. I labor to see sectarianism abolished and all Christians of every name united upon the one foundation upon which the apostolic church was founded." Please feel free to visit our church web page Senior Pastor trinitychurchlb.net Trinity United Christian Church the Bible School where I am Professor of the New Testament bli4u.org Biblical Life Institute Watch my video below this WELCOME about my research and work in the New Testament. May the Lord bless you! Cletus Hull P.S. I am available for teaching, preaching, seminars, conferences, and can address anything from essential Bible study methods to studies about Scripture, biblical history and culture. |

Dear Trinity family and friends,
Our theme verse for the messages this summer has been from Jeremiah 29:11,
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
In this age of COVID-19 and the many negative influences in our society, this is a word of hope for you. I was recently thinking of this verse after reading a building contract associated with the church. There was a line which I know many of you have read in paperwork with your property. It goes...
"Not responsible for acts of God such as earthquakes, storms, etc."
I remember a person I knew years ago whose home was destroyed after a natural disaster.
He said to me,
"Look, this is what God did to me!"
When bad circumstances come, the first thought in many people's minds is
"This is the will of God for me."
However, we hear the word God provided Jeremiah as Judah was led into captivity,
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
The Lord looks upon your situation and sees it differently than we do. Negativity and discouragement come easily, yet, we hear the word of the Lord today,
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Say that to your self today and meditate upon those thoughts. I know God can encourage you as you place your thoughts on Him (1 Samuel 30:6; Isaiah 26:3).

How could Jeremiah be so optimistic seeing the demise of his people?
Because he knew that a day was coming when God would fulfill his promises in their lives.
Look at all the promises found in this week's message from Jeremiah 31 that God initiates:
• I will make a new covenant
• I will put my law in them
• I will write it on their hearts
• I will be their God
• I will forgive their sins
• I will remember their sins no more
As we travel through this Old Testament book, we find HOPE in all our life's circumstances. Join us this weekend as we travel into chapter 31 as God says He will give us a new heart! Read Jeremiah 31: 31-34 to prepare for worship.
Our lives have become more challenging than ever. But God specializes in taking adversity and challenges and working through them. As I heard in worship last week from a Trinity church member, “Faith matures by what it endures.”
This is a season in which I hope your faith is maturing and one during which God is working through you, as a congregation, in amazing ways.
