Childlike Faith

Series closing message covering Jesus devotion and sacrificial love

Last week we examined the Humility of Christ and were challenged to allow the Holy Spirit to audit that in our lives. This message examines two more of Christ's attributes: Gratitude and Commitment

As our world spirals downward during these final days, it is more important than ever for Christians to love and live more like Christ. Our fierce enemies, satan and the demonic realm he controls, wreak more havoc - chaos and confusion - than at any time in human history. Sadly this is not just outside the church, but inside too many as well. This series of messages serves to "audit" our Christ-likeness.  The first message is on His HUMILITY. 

In this message, I wrap up this short series on Becoming a Living Testimony. Everyone has one. As Christians, whether or not it is one that best represents Jesus Christ to our world depends on understanding these three things: Our salvation. Our Walk. Our Talk. This message examines our talk - what we say, how we say it, and to whom.

I can say without hesitation there has never been a time in our world that Christians need to love and live more like our Savior. My emphasis in this series is what it means and looks like to become "living" testimonies of Light in dark places.

Every adult person has a living testimony whether or not they realize it or call it that. What is yours? In this new series we are going to examine what that means and how Christians can develop the one Jesus commanded.

This is the fourth and final message in my series on JOY. We examine five areas in which Christians can choose to live joyously in a world desperate, hopeless, and very often, joyless.

This message wraps up this series on JOY by answering the two questions we all ask when joy eludes us - Who stole my joy? How do I get it back?

JOY in our lives. This week we examine what Jesus and the Apostle Paul had to say about Joy. It is a gift of the Holy Spirit so it must be important and something He wants to be prominent in our lives as blood-bought Christians.

This message and the one next week examine the Scripture to help us understand what biblical lasting joy is; how we lose it and how we get it back!
