ideas people decision
Ggrace is God's best idea - it's His decision to ravage people by love, to rescue passionately, and to restore justly.
christian men people
I would not have said anything about Mr. Trump, never - I would never have said anything if he didn't call himself a Christian. It'd be none of my business whatsoever to make any comments about his language, his vulgarities, his slander of people, but I was deeply troubled ... that here's a man who holds up a Bible one day, and calls a lady "bimbo" the next.
loss insomnia people
December is the most difficult month. Medications for insomnia or depression go up during the month of December. A lot of people who experience loss feel that loss magnified in December. Everybody seems happy and you feel all alone. You're not all alone.
prayer eight people
Pastoring the flock with words. I love that. We always have a prayer time in the middle of our service. We take about eight or ten minutes before I preach, after we've sung, and invite people to come forward for prayer. That's a tender moment to me. I don't preach much in that, but I like to speak to the people.
honesty people our-relationship
Honesty and vulnerability endear us to people; they don't endanger us in our relationship.
encouragement believe people
Most of my sermons are inspirational, and I believe people need that encouragement.
country rainbow people
Be less about protecting any type of identity affiliated to a country or even ethnic background. Be more about the fact that we're here for a short time and Heaven is going to be a rainbow of people, multiculture, every generation.
people labels respectful
The Bible urges us to be respectful to all people, especially people with whom we have disagreements, to never libel people, to never label people.
differences office people
You want to make a difference in your world? Live a holy life: Be faithful to your spouse. Be the one at the office who refuses to cheat. Be the neighbor who acts neighbors. Be the employee who does the work and doesn't complain. Pay your bills. Do your part and enjoy life. Don't speak one message and live another. People are watching the way we act more than they are listening to what we say.
weekend people hours
I get one hour, really 25 minutes in a sermon on a weekend, to combat all the hours of the week that people are told you are what you have through billboards, commercials, and sitcoms, and so forth.
stars people heaven
God will use whatever he wants to display his glory. Heavens and stars. History and nations. People and problems.
shadow-of-death giving people
One of the greatest gifts we can give people is the hope that their death is nothing to fear - you know, not that it has no fear in it, but the promise of scripture is that God will lead us through the valley of the shadow of death.
people way too-much
God loves people just the way they are, but He loves them too much to leave them that way!
pain people wonder
Sometimes I wonder if we don't see Christ's love as much in the people he tolerated as in the pain he endured.
