    An Unwilling Heart Series

     | 8,046 views

    A crisis is a test. It reveals our attitude towards God and faith in Him. What is the posture of your heart?

    Saul showed an unwillingness to trust God. This sounds odd at first. Why would anyone not trust God? • If we think of our own experience, then we can understand. It could be pride (we think we know best), freedom (I like to do what I like), pleasure (I want some fun), or fear (sacrifices ...read more

    Adapted Rick Warren Sermon for the 40 Days of Community on the need to demonstrate our love for each other by serving each other together.

    Today is the last in our series, what on earth are we here for? What has God placed on this earth to do? To love God and love each other. Remember love is a verb, it is not so much something we feel, as much as it is something we do. Love is a choice. Jesus taught and modeled for us that one ...read more

    What did Jesus teach? Servant hood. Throughout His life He always put others first before Himself. Everyday He would spend time with His Father alone in prayer to prepare Himself for His day ahead, in teaching, healing, praying, but mostly serving.

    Who among us does not want to be recognized for something? We long for human affirmation. We want to be recognized for a job well done, for boldly helping others, for supporting a cause we believe in. It is our nature, our human nature, but the words of Christ teach us otherwise. Within the ...read more

    We strengthen our relationships when we help and serve the other person. Serving goes along with a way to love others.

    Building better relationships, building stronger relationships, building more sincere relationships—that’s what we have been learning from God’s Word for the past few weeks. God has taught the roles of LOVE, ENCOURAGEMENT, and FORGIVENESS and the parts each plays to build authentic relationships. ...read more
