Believe In Now Starts This Sunday

This Sunday we will start a new series entitled: Believe In Now

This is a great series as we as a nation face many challenges. It is a much needed series as we as individuals are living in current times that are nothing like many of us have ever had to live in before. This is a series about having Big Dreams and what it takes to see them come true. This is a series that will show you how to live your best life now....as you prepare for a dynamic future.

This is a series for everyone who has been told you will never amount to anything. For the person who thinks that their past has to be the same as their future. This is a series for anyone who wants to find out how they can align their life with God's will so that they achieve more than they ever thought possible.

This is a series for those who want to be successful in the small things of life as well as the big dreams. For those who are not satisfied with status-quo in their life and want to live the blessed life that God desires for you. In this series we will look at the stories of great people in the Bible (Joseph, Caleb and Joshua)and see how they were able to Believe In Now and watch God give them the desires of their heart as they followed Him with passion.

Here are the life changing and pro-active message titles:

Invite a friend this week who needs to hear about how they too can have and achieve their dreams! Don't be shy....invite your friends. I know that many of you stayed away and did not invite your friends to our Sex & Sensibility series because of the subject matter. Everyone needs to and can hear this series!

Today's Bible Reading Acts 13 and 14

These chapters chronicle the missionary journeys of Paul and Barnabas. Can you imagine sailing on a ship to all these places to spread the good news of Christ to those who had never heard and plant churches in such places. Big Dreams...Big Risk...Big Results.

While reading through this morning I read again a life verse of mine. One that I read back in College and determined that was a dream God had laid on my heart that He would fulfill as I passionately followed Him. Chapter 13 verse 36 says "when David had served God's purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep."

You may be thinking....crazy life verse. Not really....it was simple to me then. I want to serve God in my own generation and help reach those in my generation that have rejected or never heard for Jesus Christ. That has been my calling and purpose since I became a youth pastor when I was 18. God gave me a dream then...

Do you have a verse that is special to you?
