Thinking Like A Servant Series

Contributed by David Owens on Feb 22, 2016

I have borrowed a lot of this sermon from Rick Warren's book The Purpose Driven Life, chapter 34, "Thinking Like a Servant." In that chapter, Warren suggests that there are five attitudes that servants need to have.

Introduction: A. Someone has said, “Some minds are like concrete; thoroughly mixed and permanently set.” 1. How about you? How is your thinking? 2. Are you spiritually minded? Do you have the mind of a servant? 3. Or is your mind like concrete, all mixed up and permanently set in a ...read more

Childlike Prayer Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 28, 2016

A lot of people think if they just had the right "formula" for praying that God would hear them. But that's not true. God's not impressed with your form, He's impressed with your childlike faith in prayer. So, how can I have that kind of faith in prayer?

I'd like you to recite the Lord’s Prayer with me: Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, ...read more

The Way Up Is Down: Serve One Another Series

Contributed by Dan Raymond on Mar 7, 2016

However, for many people, serving doesn't conjure up a positive image. Instead, they think of endless menial chores, cleaning up other people's messes, and catering to their vain whims. Yet the New Testament calls us to become servants of one another.

What do you think of when you hear the word serve? No, I don't mean the opening hit of the racket in a tennis match. I'm not even talking about your waiter or waitress at Shiela’s. I mean what does a servant look like? What picture comes to mind? It's possible that you have a positive image. ...read more
