Contemplating The Wondrous Cross

Contemplating The Wondrous Cross
If you're like me you often sing hymns - especially the most familiar ones - without really considering the words.  We short-change God in our worship times when we simply sing along, not taking in or truly professing the message.

I encourage you to take a few moments to lean into this favorite hymn about the cross and consider the powerful truths Isaac Watts wanted to convey over 300 years ago.

Meet Beth

 
Beth was blessed to be raised by parents who taught their children to love the Lord.  She trusted in Christ for salvation and followed in believer’s baptism when she was eight years old.  

Beth thanks the Lord for leading her parents to First Baptist Church in Jefferson City, Missouri, where the youth choir practiced and sang in the 8:15 am Sunday service each week.   This was great preparation for understanding the joy and the responsibility of serving Christ’s church.

Throughout her adult life, Beth has served in many roles across various church ministries – most of them while working full-time.  Her favorite roles involve discipling women by studying and teaching the Bible and its power for our lives.  

She has taught an adult Sunday School class on Sunday mornings since 2010.  In addition, since 2021, she has enjoyed writing and teaching two Women’s Bible studies each year.  She also blogs at bethipock.com about discipleship and daily Christian living. She recently had an article published at thegospelcoalition.org.

Other church roles include co-directing VBS, singing in the choir, chairing the personnel committee, and filling in at the piano when needed.

Beth and her husband, Ellis, have five grown children, three daughters-in-love, 16 grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
