What a beautiful day we had Sunday! The sun was shining outside and the Son was shining inside! I never get tired of worshipping our Savior with the faith family of MVC!!! A few thoughts about yesterday...
- The youth pumped me up when they came down front to worship in front of the stage! Keep it up you guys! Lead the way!
- The subject of anger is something that you don't usually hear in a sermon, but from your responses, it's something we all need to deal with.
- The reason many of us don't properly manage our anger is because we haven't truly surrendered our lives to Christ. The problem with many people is that they prayed a prayer but did not fully turn their hearts over to God.
- It's amazing how we overestimate what God 'needs' to do in other people and underestimate what He wants to do in us.
- I know the preaching disturbed many of you yesterday - in a good way. That's okay! God does wonderful things with those who allow Him to disturb us and break our selfish hearts.
- My desire for MVC is not just to see people receive Christ, but for them to be radically changed and fully embrace the life He has called them to live.
- I truly believe that the biggest problem we have in our marriages today is selfishness. Selfishness must be replaced with selflessness if we want to become more like Jesus and have God-honoring relationships.
- You all heard my "push" for more involvement in the Haiti outreach effort. Please get involved in this event and let's overwhelm the people of that earthquake ravaged country with the love of Christ.
- This past weekend I helped my dad do some plumbing work and I am still sore! IT STINKS GETTING OLD!
I'm looking forward to seeing you next Sunday! IF YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED, WE'RE GROWING! Keep it up! Bring a friend. In fact, bring 10 friends! Let's continue building bridges of love into the lives of those around us!!!
