Message Title: Tired of the Shallows? 

Go Deeper with Jesus 

Scripture: Luke 5:1-11 

Stepping into one of the boats, Jesus asked Simon, its owner, to push it out into the water. So he sat in the boat and taught the crowds from there. When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Now go out where it is deeper, and let down your nets to catch some fish.” “Master,” Simon replied, “we worked hard all last night and didn’t catch a thing. But if you say so, I’ll let the nets down again.” And this time their nets were so full of fish they began to tear! A shout for help brought their partners in the other boat, and soon both boats were filled with fish and on the verge of sinking.

Surrendering the Secret is a ministry (through Low Country Community Church) designed to help women walk through a healing journey from the heartbreak of a past abortion. The subject of abortion elicits a range of emotions. But for women who have had an abortion, the feelings are very personal. If that is you, Surrendering the Secret is a confidential, safe study in a private home, starting March 27, to offer healing and God’s redeeming of the most painful losses and learning how this can be used for His glory! Call or text Terry at 828-302-0834. More Info at: https://lowcountrycc.churchcenter.com/groups/classes-and-support-groups/surrendering-the-secret-healing-the-heartbreak-of-abortion-march
