     | 8,438 views

    Let’s not just learn what God says. Let’s Just Do it! You haven't really learned the Word until you live the Word. We often are hearers of the Word and not doers. We learn and teach God’s Word more than obeying it ourselves.

    Opening illustration: A church had a new pastor who preached the same sermon every Sunday. When people started complaining, he told the congregation, “I’ll preach a new sermon when you act on this one.” That pastor’s statement reminds me of the words of the apostle James: ...read more

It is impossible to do it adequately, for God is ...read more

They dropped their nets and left everything and everyone behind. Over the course of the next three years, ...read more
