Is "Sex" A Dirty Word? Series

Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Jan 18, 2007

Asking The Right Question Series

Contributed by Chip Monck on Nov 8, 2005

Third in a series in the book of Nehemiah. This message explores the "why" (motivation) of vision, versus the "how" (process of fulfilling) the vision. Emphasizes that the "how" is for God to handle, and the "why" will keep us focused on the vision.

(Prior to this sermon, utilized a Bible "Jeopardy" game with three volunteers from the congregation. Helped bring into focus the idea of asking the right question.) There is a great similarity between success at Jeopardy, and success in seeing the current vision for your life come into focus. To ...read more
