Home Seasonal Displays

Before and during each season of the church year and for special celebrations, the MRC will display resources that can be used for ministry at those times. Pictured below are resources available for Ordinary Time.
MRC Devotional
MRC Bedtime Bible
Whether you're in a family setting or live alone, a personal time with the Lord each day is a great blessing. Here is one resource of many in the MRC to consider as an aid for individual reading, reflection, and prayer. Careful research reveals family devotional time is the best predictor of adult church attendance. The next best predictor is a child growing up seeing his or her parents read the Bible at home, and, third, parents reading the Bible to their children. This is a good time to begin a daily practice of reading the Bible to our children and grandchildren (Deuteronomy 4:9, 6:4-7). This book is one of many in the MRC that will help parents engage their children in this most enjoyable and productive time together.
An increasing number of churches are concerned about how to engage their post high school age young adults. Many are beginning ministries targeted toward this vital age group. These are some of the exceptional resources in the MRC that are designed to address needs of young adults in this age range.
