Thanksgiving
We look at five ways to be thankful for all we have (and don’t)…
Attitude…
HOW we think is as important as what we are thinking about. We’ll look at how to check our spiritual attitudes before the Lord.
Being a Better Servant – The Yoke’s on You
Seriously though…how can we learn to serve the Lord better in our daily lives? The answer runs counter to our culture…
Confidence & Hope
What are were doing all this for? Is there a purpose – a reason in spite of obstacles, circumstances? Yes, and as a sail and anchor safely get you to your destination (if you’re a boat) so confidence and hope help traverse life’s storms.
Sukkot – God’s Pause Button
Tonight we talk about Sukkot and how this holiday helps us remember to hit life’s pause button and catch our breath.
Yom Kippur
Yom Kippur is a chance to draw near to God and reconnect with Him as well as where we need to repent and make changes.
Rosh Ha Shanah
What relevance does Rosh Ha Shanah, Yom Terujah, Tishrei 1st, or the First Day of the Seventh Month have to us?
The Fear of the Lord
God’s desire is to speak to us in many ways – Isaiah and Revelations speak of the seven-fold Spirit of God. The last of these aspects or facets of the way He relates to us is through the Fear of the Lord. Fear from the Biblical word in Hebrew is a form of respect, awe, honor, consideration. It calls us to consider adjusting our behavior and attitude in light of how we relate. Notes from the meeting are below:

Staying Hungry…
Twelve years ago, we started with a question:
“Why do some people grow in the Lord and change, but others drift away?”
Recently, I heard an answer to that question:
“You have to stay hungry for the things of God”
What keeps us hungry? What does that even mean?
- Physical “hunger” can be in our heads sometimes; we’re not in “hunger” we’re simply “hungry”
- People eat out of stress, extreme emotional need, and boredom
- While satisfying, it comes from habit. Something else is driving that need
- Isn’t hunger for the Lord a good thing?
