Oakridge Assembly of God

Welcome to the

Oakridge

Assembly of God! 

We are glad you dropped by for a quick visit.  Look around our site and feel free to email us with any questions you may have about our Church and the people who make it a family. 

Oakridge, Oregon is a small community of about 3500 people located in the foothills of the western slope of the Cascade mountains.  The town is surrounded by thousands of acres of National Forest and five rivers and streams converge within a small radius of the community.

Our Church is located in the middle of town along one of the busiest highways in Oregon.  God placed us here for a purpose and although it has been many years we still believe that purpose is being fulfilled.

We are here to serve God and You!

Read 1 Kings 20:1 through 22:53

Returning early from vacation, Brad and Sarah pulled into their driveway at midnight. Brad said with alarm, “The kitchen light is on!” A quick phone call brought the police just in time to seize the burglar at the back door. The couple was furious to see it was their neighbor, who was supposed to be house-sitting for them! In his hand were three $100 bills from the envelope hidden in their freezer.

The neighbor admitted his thievery and was sorry. He regretted betraying their friendship, and he sought their forgiveness.

Ahab betrayed God by selling himself out to evil more than any other man. But when Ahab was truly sorry for his behavior, God stated: “Have you noticed how Ahab has humbled himself before me?” (1 Kings 21:29).

God knows genuine remorse; we can’t fool Him. If we truly regret our wrong thoughts, words, and actions, He knows it. He is merciful to all who come to Him for salvation through His Son Jesus. His forgiveness is available to everyone who recognizes his or her wrongs and humbly seeks Him for the strength to overcome.

Thought for Today: No sin is beyond God’s mercy and forgiveness when there is true repentance.

Quicklook:1 Kings 21:1–29
