Preach It, Teach It - Sermon Audio

King David had no reason to invite Saul's crippled grandson, Mephibosheth, to sit at his royal table. But David had made a covenant with Jonathan.

Perfect faith is to respond to the seemingly random events of life as if they are part of the perfect plan of God. We were created to look for purpose. Sometimes we find it, sometimes we don't. Sometimes we find it immediately, sometimes we find it eventually. At Christmas, we are reminded that life is not as random as it seems. There is a story taking place, a Divine story.  And if we choose, we can participate.  www.northpointechurch.org. 

What happens when you close your eyes in death? The questions you have about life after death can leave you wondering, but they don’t mean you have to live in fear. Bring your questions and find out what happens One Minute After You Die.

Oftentimes, it feels like marriage is an expectation society has for each of us—as if marriage will make our lives complete. What happens when marriage doesn’t come quickly for us? When we are still single in our 30s and 40s? When everyone is getting married except for us? We become discouraged when we have to keep checking the box “single” under marital status. But the Bible tells us to not focus on our marital status but to focus on God and what He has called us to do. Learn how to embrace and use the gift of singleness to focus on an important mission.

And we don’t want you to miss this opportunity to be extraordinarily generous."

Fifty-four percent of American couples are choosing to live together rather than to be married. We must ask ourselves:  Which “benefits” of cohabitating are you most tempted to believe? How are those “benefits” really a cheap imitation of the real thing? What are some real benefits of being single? Of being married? Is the Spirit placing someone on your mind to have an “awkward” conversation with?  www.benttree.org.

When asked about parenting, most parents will talk about the sleepless nights, the inability to have alone time, and the temper tantrums. But parenting is much more than surviving the different seasons. Parenting is about making sacrifices. Parenting is about leading by example. Parenting is our mission field.
