Jesus makes a lot of startling claims in Scripture. Even though he
speaks plainly, using images and illustrations from everyday life, his
identity as the true Son of God remains a mystery to most of those who
hear him. Join us For 8 weeks, we'll be studying the "I AM" statements of
Jesus, in the gospel of John. Join as we look into these statements from
Jesus.

MICAH 6:8 MINISTRY from Sandy Schefcik
Did you know. that after months of sandbagging President Trump's
nominees, Democrats finally agreed to cooperate on an up-or-down vote for
dozens of appointees? Their sudden spirit of cooperation was part of the deal
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) struck in exchange for turning out
the lights on an unusually long summer session. The trade turned out to be a
good one for Republicans, who cranked through more than 60 appointees --
most for key administration posts that have sat empty for the better part of six
months. Like other agencies, the State Department had been in a holding
pattern while Democrats stalled on a number of important hires -- including a
full slate of ambassadors. Now, in a step forward, HR directors from the CIA to
FCC will be busily adding new staff to the government directory. For
McConnell, "The Senate has confirmed more Executive Branch nominees this
week than all of the Executive Branch nominees confirmed this year
combined," he pointed out. "This was an important step towards filling critical
roles throughout the administration, including the deputies at multiple cabinet
offices who had been lacking these key positions. Moving forward, I hope this
agreement represents the way forward on confirming nominees so our
government can be fully staffed and working for the American people." While
Republicans filled a number of jobs, they leave town wondering about their
own. Back on their home turf, few will be eager to face voters and explain
what happened on the repeal. Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), who voted
to keep Obamacare, will have more than her share of explaining to do in a
state where premiums are 203 percent higher since 2013.
