MAKE WAR

Prepping for an upcoming series for Revolution, our Student worship service...A friend of mine, Spencer Arnold told me about a song by a Christian hip hop artist named Tedashi called MAKE WAR...this song kinda got my creative juices going and sparked some inspriration. The song can be seen in the video typography below... Looking forward to preaching the series and decking out stage with camo and war type decor....we are going to MAKE WAR against sin.

Check out the video below if you like...those not into hip-hop/rap you have been warned...

Questioning God when bad things happen...

I read this today and thought it was an intresting point and one I had not heard before...Thought I'd share it...

"Maybe the reason we question God's moral character when bad things happen is that we live our lives largely independent from Him. In other words, we struggle to trust God in times of trouble because we do not really trust Him when things are going well. Maybe we struggle with suffering so much in the West because we are so comfortable most of the time that we feel we don't need God. We do not rely on Him on a daily basis, and so we do not really know Him. When suffering comes along, therefore, it is not so much that it takes us away from God, but that it reveals to us that we have not really been close to God in the first place.

-Michael Ramsden, European director of Ravi Zacharias International Ministries.

2010

I dont really know if I'm totally sold on New Year's resolutions... They seem to trail off and get forgotten by mid February or maybe sooner. But I do think the first of the year is a good time to look, plan, pray and think about what we need to get done this year...Here are some resolutions, commitments, goals or whatever you'd like to call them for me personally in 2010...

  • Finish up reading the Bible cover to cover...
  • Run/Jog 300 or more miles
  • Take every advantage of every chance I get to be a daddy
  • Date my wife more...
  • Read 24 or more books
  • Fast more...
  • Encourage people...

Nothing earth shattering, I know...No hiking to the peak Mt. Everest...but it my list...What's on yours?

Last time you hit the gym?

When was it? Many people hit the gym three times a week, some as many 5 or 6 times. Some spend big bucks to get fit... people get in shape at home gyms, some pay monthly dues at the club, some even hire a personal trainer to get better, faster, and professional expertise. Disciplining themselves, training, and getting stronger.

How many workouts did you get in this week? Before you answer...know this...I'm asking about the spiritual gym.

I have a few questions about your "work out" regimen...

How many spiritual workouts do you get in this week? Three days or are you a spiritual gym rat maybe 5 or 6 days? Did you get three sets of Bible, a super set of prayer, a circuit of fasting, or maybe you did some cross training and combined a few this week?

Where do you usually work out? Home, at a club (the church), do you hire a personal trainer those being a mentor, small group, or accountability partner.

When is the last time you seriously hit the spiritual gym?

It's time we get in shape...

Time to hit the gym...
