New Message Series

This Sunday we launch our new message series: "Weeds"

'The seeds that fell among the thorns represent those who hear the message, but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the cares and riches and pleasures of this life. And so they never grow into maturity.' (Luke 8:14)

It is impossible to grow spiritually apart from God's Word. God's Word has the power to transform our lives and to grow us into spiritual maturity. Why is it that people go to church regularly, yet they are not growing spiritually? Jesus says weeds 'crowd out' and 'choke' or strangle His Word. We need to regularly clear the weeds from our lives. In this message series we will identify the weeds and learn the solution for destroying them.

Weeds

New message series beginning Sunday July 13...

God's Word transforms lives. But, many who read the Bible never experience it's transforming power. Why? Because they do not remove the weeds that strangle spiritual growth. In this message series we'll identify these weeds and find a solution to eliminate them.

Have you heard from God Lately?

When you read your Bible, do you hear from God? Why is it that some people get so much more from their Bible reading that others do?

Jesus said some would hear but not understand, and others would hear and experience unbelievable result. To illustrate, he told the story of a farmer who planted seed in four different soil conditions. Three of the soils failed to produce, but the fourth soil produced an amazing crop.

The first soil rejected the seed. The second did not develop a strong root system. And, the third was overcome by thorns.

Success in farming requires both strategy and effort. A casual approach to farming will not produce great results. The same is true if God's Word is going to speak to you. Your approach to the Bible should be more than casual. To get the most from God's Word you have to put forth personal effort. Do you have a structured approach to the Bible? What do you do when you come to a passage you do not understand? Do you discuss the Bible with other believers? Do you keep digging till you understand?

God's word is powerful. It will change your life. You need to hear from God. How serious are you about reading and understanding God's Word?

He wants to speak to you today. How serious are you about listening to him?
