This week’s Diving Deep question is: Does God to us? How can I hear him?
Throughout the Bible, there are times God spoke out loud to people (Moses heard God talk to him lots of times.) For most of us, though, God speaks mostly through his Word, the Bible. The Bible is so full of truth that we can find answers there to all of life’s big questions.
Sometimes, though, God uses other ways to talk to us. God might send a wise person to give you the advice you need (see Exodus 18: 13- 27). Or he might show you what to do by making other options impossible (see Acts 16: 6-10). Sometimes the Holy Spirit might put the right decision in your heart (see Romans 8: 14, 16).
The most important thing to remember is that no matter how God communicates, his message will never go against the Bible. So if you get advice from someone, but that advice goes against what the Bible teaches, you can be sure that the advice didn’t come from God.

In today’s world, people are becoming more and more dependent on the resources around them. One of these resources is Shoreline’s own food pantry which helps feed about 50 people a month on average. This food pantry is stocked by the Food Bank of Monterey County who is in need of food donations from the surrounding community. Through the end of November, Community Outreach is holding a food drive to help our friends at the Food Bank of Monterey County so they can help us. They are in need of various items including powdered milk, canned/dried fruit, canned vegetables, beef stew and many more items. For a complete list of food needed and to donate, please go to the donation bins in the lobbies both downstairs and upstairs.

Community Outreach Ministry is up to great things! We want to let you know all about it and how YOU can get involved!
First of all, THANK YOU to the volunteers who showed Christ’s love to the residents of the Monterey Pines Convalescent Home and the Women’s Crisis Center. These volunteers are such a blessing to the community at large.
Join Outreach THIS Saturday, September 26th as we beautify and landscape our own church to make it a pleasing place of worship to all who come here on Sunday mornings! This is a worthwhile event and greatly improves the experience of attendees and guests to the church.
Shoreline is partnering with the Panetta Institute for the Monterey County Reads program. This project connects volunteers who are willing and able to help local school children learn to read with the after school programs with these children in them. We are in the process of coordinating with the Panetta Institute so get in on this fantastic opportunity to impact the life of a local school child.
The economic downturn has affected everyone… especially those who don’t have consistent access to food. In light of this, we are holding a food drive for the Monterey County Food Bank. We are helping them specifically because their food goes to help supply Shoreline’s own food pantry. Please donate non-perishable food in the bins in both the lobby and upstairs.
As the holidays approach, Outreach becomes involved in may different activities. Two of the main activities Outreach supports are Operation Christmas Child and Angel Tree. Both of these programs are not possible without willing and able volunteers to fill boxes, deliver gifts and do so much more.
If you are interested in these or other opportunities to serve, please call 655-0100 x338 or email Debra Federico at dfederico@shorelinechurch.org or Megan Huff at mhuff@shorelinechurch.org.
