Coaches Meeting

Sunday was great! I hope that each married couple will take the Post-a-note coaches meeting insert we made for you and schedule a time for the two of you to get together at talk about the message yesterday. As a reminder, here is the three things you must do if you are to get back to that "first-love" feeling and commitment that maybe you have forgotten. (teaching taken from Revelation 2:3-5)

1) Remember what YOU use to do when the relationship first started.
2) Repent of the wrong actions YOU have started or maybe the things YOU stopped doing.
3) Return to the things you use to do that made the relationship flourish.

Three simple things to do again and on a regular basis:
1) Communicate Meaningfully
2) Serve Specifically
3) Date Creatively

When you go on your Coaches Meeting....discuss those things and move forward with the grace and power of God. On a funny note.....I had an older couple in their 60's come up to me after the service and told me it was great that I was encouraging people that it was okay to go home for lunch! HA HA

This coming Sunday I will give a message called Salary Cap. In today's tough economic times.....this is a can't miss message. Invite a friend now to attend with you.


Today's Bible Reading. Revelation 20

A few great points that we should make sure we understand from this chapter:

1) Satan is powerful....but God throws him around and places him where He wants him anytime he wants to....This is not Star Wars....where you have two equal powers. God is the highest power and does what He wants.

2) Those who do not accept Jesus Christ as Savior will spend eternity in torment with Satan in the lake of fire.

3) When each person dies.....their opportunity to accept Christ is over.

Have you given your life to Christ? What about your family and friends? We are not promised tomorrow.
