Goodbye, Winter!

Posted in Holiness, Lent, SpringLife on March 18, 2007 | Leave a Comment »

Perhaps I’ve told you before, but Spring is one of my favorite seasons. Here in Martinsville, it is one of two seasons that are beautiful, because it’s not too hot and not too cold.

Spring Cleaning Joshua 5:9-12; Psalm 32; 2 Corinthians 5:16-21; Luke 15:1-3, 11-32 This morning we had a work day at our church. It also turned out to be a spring cleaning day as well. By the way, it feels nothing like a Martinsville spring out there today. It was cold for March in Martinsville. In [...]

We had a great time during Mosaic tonight. We had a great problem tonight; not all the students fit on the van, so Gayle, Vicky, and I had to pick up most of the students. We had twenty-one tonight plus 7 adults. Vicky, Rhonda, and Ruth taught, while Pam, Gayle, Mary, and I cooked. We [...]

Today we got our first real taste of spring in Martinsville. Here are some pictures of some daffodils that are blooming in front of the church. I know my friends in New York are experiencing some warm weather and quite a bit of snow melt. It looks like we are going to have a few [...]

Matt Rose, posted this on his web site. I agree with many of his comments regarding cell phones. On Sunday I quoted part of this, but couldn’t remember it all.I wonder what would happen if we treated out Bible like we treat our cell phone What if we carried it around wherever we went? What [...]

Genuine Worship

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged on March 13, 2007 | Leave a Comment »

While I was in college and at Flint First Wesleyan, I subscribed to “Worship Quote of the Week.” It was and is a weekly e-mail on the topic of worship. It is a why-to worship, rather than how-to worship. I checked out the column today and found this great quote. GENUINE WORSHIP IS LIFE CHANGING [...]

Sunday Night Thoughts – March 11

Posted in Sunday Thoughts on March 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment »

Today was a great day of ministry at our church. We had a good service this morning as we worshiped together with singing, prayer, giving and the Word. I preached from Isaiah 55 and asked the question “Are you hungering and thirsting after Christ and His way?” We had some technical difficulties following the service [...]

An Invitation

Posted in Holiness, Lent, SpringLife on March 11, 2007 | Leave a Comment »

This morning, I offer you an invitation: “Hey there! All who are thirsty; come to the water! Are you penniless? Come anyway—buy and eat! Come, buy your drinks, buy wine and milk. Buy without money—everything’s free! Why do you spend your money on junk food; your hard earned cash on cotton candy? Listen to me, [...]

March 11, 2007 Isaiah 55:1-9; Psalm 63:1-8; I Corinthians 10:1-13; Luke 13:1-9 David wrote, “Oh God, you are my God, and I earnestly seek for you.” Isaiah offers an invitation to come and drink of the good things. I love the way The Message puts it. “Why do you spend your money on junk food, [...]
