What’s Holding You Back?
“Why do people get uncomfortable talking about stewardship?” This was a question we talked about last week. Last week we started a 3-week series on stewardship. We talked about not worrying about what we don’t have, or controlling our resources because everything we have is because of God and really is God’s anyway. Here isContinue reading “What’s Holding You Back?”
I Saw God at the Water Treatment Plant
Just because we are in somewhat “ordinary” situations does not mean God has not revealed himself. Pay attention to where and how God is revealing himself, even in the unexpected places.

Convincing Arguments
Click here to read Acts 26. When was the last time you tried to convince another person (not family or friend) about coming around to your way of thinking? How did it go?

Fully Devoted
Click here to read Acts 18. There are times we can wonder if what we are doing is really making a difference. We can work so hard but still not see the results we desired to see.

Connecting Points
Click here to read Acts 17. “All you need to do is to teach that person how to…” This sounds simple enough; but is it really that easy to get people to learn new things? Just teach them? When we teach, we are actually connecting the person to what they have seen, what they haveContinue reading “Connecting Points”
Confidence in the Calling
Click here to read Acts 14:1-7. It’s the same things that have happened to Paul and Barnabas before. People are undermining the truths they are speaking and are doing everything they can to discredit and remove the “threat” other leaders consider Paul to be. Have you experienced this kind of situation in your life? BeingContinue reading “Confidence in the Calling”
