    There are two spirits in opposition to one another. The Spirit of God is better.

    Outline: Introduction - Rachel teaching Jonathan - We are “mature”; our instinct is to “do God one better.” But as children redeemed by the spirit, we really should know better.

    Tears

    Contributed by Scott Johnson on Sep 28, 2011
     | 6,389 views

    Are we able to weep with urgency over our friends, family, and people throughout our neighborhoods who aren't in Christ? Are we willing to repent and change that God may use us to bring all the sheep back home?

    Tears (Luke 15:1-10; Phil. 3:17-19) INTRO: I grew up hearing that “real men don’t cry.” Raise your hands if you’ve ever hear that? We are told it shows weakness – makes you look kind of lame…so society often tells us. Now, I have to tell you, I’m a ...read more

    This is the first time Jesus taught his first disciples about prayer. His first lesson was, “Spend time alone with the Father in prayer.” If we don’t follow his first lesson, we are not following the example or the command of Christ.

    "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." Matthew 6:6 A little boy was saying his bedtime prayers when his mother passed by his room and stopped to listen. “Bless Mommy and ...read more

    This parable challenges us to make sure we are prepared at all times to meet God. Whether via the Second Coming or at our death, we need to be ready. Not a good idea to be unprepared for His coming.

    Parable of the Ten Virgins Who here likes to paint? Who here plays an instrument? Most musicians or artists have stories of awkward moments when they were performing. Funny or awkward.

    It’s become fashionable for churches to "target" a specific audience in their messages and ministry. But is that really such a good idea? Is it possible that in targeting specific groups we might be undermining our real ministry?

    OPEN: In my files I ran across these nuggets of wisdom from little children: Patrick, age 10 - "Never trust a dog to watch your food." Hannah, age 9 - "When your dad is mad and asks you, ’Do I look stupid?’ don’t answer." Taylia, age 11 - "When your mom is mad at your dad, don’t let her brush ...read more
