What a great weekend at Living Water! I got to preach at 4 service at 2 different campuses. There was great worship and great crowds. Most importantly God moved in people's life, the Word was spoken and I pray that lives will be changed. Bellow are a couple of my favorite thoughts from the message.
- If your life was a race, how would you assess your running?
- Could you imagine if Mary Lou would have reported to training camp with a box of Krispy Kreme?
- Does Jesus want to eliminate everything that I enjoy from my life?
- NO, but He is adamant that you exchange your priorities and preferences for Kingdom ones.
- Some of the decline in the church in the America can be attributed to the fact that too many churches preach a cheap Gospel where sin is not mentioned and sacrifice is not expected.
- Issues of Forgiveness and Grace are settled, never let anyone tell you that you are competed for those or have to earn those gifts.
This sounds like exactly what the church needed to hear. Good going my friend. I'm going to have to podcast this one. By the way, nice Mary Lou Retton mention. I have a copy of the newspaper on the day I was born and she is on the cover winning the gold medal.
