This week Pastor Nate shared with us from Zechariah. He talked about a twofold prophecy that Zechariah shared so many years ago. Pastor Nate shared with us that we are in between the first part and the second part of the prophecy. Jesus came riding on a donkey and he will come again to bring peace to the Earth. So what do we do while we wait? Pastor Nate talked about living a life that is led by the Holy Spirit and not just living a "good" life. He encouraged us to read the rest of Zechariah chapter 9 and see what God is prompting us to do in this life time.
