    We seem to make the whole "knowing God" thing much harder than God ever did? Life is hard, knowing God is what makes sense out of life.

    Journey In, Journey Out Series

    Contributed by Robert Higgins on Apr 17, 2008
     | 4,768 views

    The primary source of our failure to be externally focused Christians and an inside out church is found in the tension between the development of the inward life the saint and his outward life.

    1. I have been talking about letting God turn us inside out. a. Most of my emphasis over these past few weeks has been about letting God use you, about getting your focus off of “your wants and desires” and paying attention to what God is doing and how He wants to change the world through you. b. ...read more

     | 10,644 views

    In our text from Acts 18 I see the responsibility of evangelism. 1- We must preach Christ even though we are tentmakers 2- We must continue to preach until people stop listening

    INTRO.- ILL.- A church member of John Henry Jowett’s church said that he heard Jowett preach every Sunday and a friend responded with: "WHAT A TERRIBLE RESPONSIBILITY!" It is terrible to have to listen to some preachers and I may well be one of those! But we are supposed to be responsible when ...read more

     | 10,636 views

    Ezra was facing a problem and came up with a solution that ended in success. From that, we can see how this godly leader dealt with a problem. And from that, we can develop our own how-to list. We can see three key components to dealing with the problems

    How do you deal with problems? 1. Recognize the problem 2. Come up with the right solution 3. Properly identify success One of the complaints some people have about expository preaching is they say it’s not practical. They say that when you just preach directly from the text of the Bible, you ...read more
