This is the message from last night at Creekstone, "What is the Hardest Thing a Christian Will Ever Do?" (Philippians 2:12-18).
This is the message from Creekstone last night, based on Romans 8:35-39. The gist is from Jerry Bridges, "God cannot love me more, and will not love me less." That is the message of the cross.
This message was given at Creekstone Sunday, February 7. The gist is that God is not outdone with our cries for help, but actually is delighted to enter into our weakness and need with his power and provision.
So, how dynamic and powerful was my sermon tonight? Just ask Timothy. :)
I gave this message last night during a special Creekstone gathering at my house. It is the overflow of personal conviction in my own life concerning my lack of prayer and lack of living a Spirit-empowered life. I sense that this has been affecting, or soon adversely will affect, the ministry of the fledgling community we call Creekstone. So this message is a philosophical reboot of sorts for my own heart, calling us all back to the foundational, biblical model of ministry for powerless people found in Acts 1 and 2. It deals with the power we need, the means to experience that power, and the reason God provides that power.
