What is the Revival God Wants
Many of us think Recycle when we think revival.
Is this what God is calling us to when he calls us to wake up to revival?
Does he want us to put a new spin on our old fashionable practices?
Does he want us to live exactly like the Acts 2 church with no differences?
Neither one of these definitions describe the revival God wants.
God wants us to function exactly as the early church did with practices that fit our culture.
Some things (functions) don’t change.
Some things (forms) do change.
A revived follower of Christ is:
Joyful - Hopeful and Fully aware of their salvation in Christ.
Obedient - Deeply concerned with eradicating sin in their life
Focused - Passionate for God’s vision of a saved world
Faithful - Unwavering in their trust of God to work in their lives
How do we get there?

Has God abandoned Me?
Переглядів 3721 день тому
You can tell when someone is trying to avoid contact. Arms crossed, looking anywhere but into your eyes, short one-word answers, divulging nothing personal, fidgety. It’s hard to blame them. Most people have tried to be close to others and were burned a couple times for their efforts. E-mails and texts? Can’t trust them either. The response? Never trust nobody! The crazy thing is that God desig...
Life Under the Tree
Переглядів 4Місяць тому
By now many of us have our Christmas tree up. Some of you more industrious folks may have stacked gifts under your tree but, if your tree is like ours, it doesn’t have any presents under it yet. When I was a kid, I couldn’t wait to see what might show up under the tree as we got closer to Christmas. That’s when it began to feel like there was life under the tree. You had better believe I was ke...
The Blessing of Fellowship
Переглядів 4Місяць тому
Last week we looked at the difference between a cruise ship mentality and a fellowship mentality. We said a cruise mentality sees a need and thinks, “somebody should take care of it” while a fellow ship mentality asks, “how can we get this taken care of?” While fellowship requires a lot from us, it also gives a lot back. When it comes to fellowship, we’ve got a lot to be thankful for. Scripture...
The FellowShip

Is this a cruise ship or a fellowship? It can be tempting to participate in church for our own benefit. We want our kids to be good so we take them to church. We want to find comfort or a miracle so we show up at church. We want to make connections or to be seen in a certain way so we go to church. These are great reasons to start going to a church but they aren't the reason to stay. There's a ...
House of Prayer

Maybe you have played a card or board game at a friend's house and quickly realized that they play by a different set of rules. They have their house rules and you have yours. This can be frustrating and may even cause some arguing. What about God's house rules? One church worships this way and this church another, but the stakes for worship are higher. It's one thing to break a friend's house ...
The Journey Together

Hebrews 3:12 challenges us to live fearlessly together and reminds us to do whatever it takes not to let any person in our family fall. This is a giant impossible ask for a church. Luckily for us we follow a God who walks with us through the impossible on a daily basis.
