    We are going to start a new series today, one that will take a look at the relationship between what we believe and how we live. It is entitled, “Lies we believe.” 1. Crisis of Trutha. We live in a society that has discarded the concept or notion that there is such a thing as “absolute truth.” i. ...read more

    I want to talk about your personal legacy; the something of who you are that will be left behind after your life is over. What will remain of your faith, your character, your personhood when this life is over?

    Leaving a Godly Legacy – Part One Joke: Two old friends bumped into one another on the street one day. One of them looked forlorn, almost on the verge of tears. His friend asked him, "What has the world done to you, my old friend?" The sad fellow said, "Let me tell you. Three weeks ago, my uncle ...read more

    Thanksgiving Turns Us Inside Out Series

    Contributed by Robert Higgins on Apr 17, 2008
     | 2,534 views

    When our mind is set up on the things of the Spirit, we will be “outward focused.” When our mind is set upon the things of the flesh, we re “inward focused.” Thanksgiving directs our attention toward God.

    1. Review of Inside Out a. We are selfish, self-centered and self-absorbed. b. We turn to meeting our own needs and our own wants all too easily. c. God doesn’t want us to be that way. i. How do I know that? Because that is what is at the core of what we call sin – self. ii. If you think about this ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,976 views

    The two things that break God’s heart are people in need and people in greed. God’s people must be those who minister to those in need and never tainted by greed.

We have been talking about letting God turn us inside out and change the focus of our lives from being self-centered, self-interested, and self-absorbed to that of a God centered, Kingdom minded, outward focused people of God. b.

    Seeing Past The Labels Series

    Contributed by Robert Higgins on Apr 17, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,194 views

    We tend to think that the whole goal is to “get saved.” But God wasn‟t interested in just saving us a future eternity. Jesus came to start a revolution in the here and now! Jesus came to turn the world right side up and inside out.

    1. Overview and Review a. We have been learning what it means to be turned inside out, both on a personal level and on a church wide level. b. God finds every one of us inside centered, self-focused, self-absorbed, self-interested, and selfish. But that doesn‟t stop Him does it? He found ...read more

    Contributed by Robert Higgins on Apr 17, 2008
     | 4,161 views

    The primary source of our failure to be externally focused Christians and an inside out church is found in the tension between the development of the inward life the saint and his outward life.

    1. I have been talking about letting God turn us inside out. a. Most of my emphasis over these past few weeks has been about letting God use you, about getting your focus off of “your wants and desires” and paying attention to what God is doing and how He wants to change the world through you. b. ...read more

    Tender Affection Series

    Contributed by Robert Higgins on Apr 15, 2008
