I really believe the adventure of the early church could be made into a movie
Here are a few thoughts...
• Lying brings death
• The early church had Power, which landed them in Prison, which lead them to Preaching.
• Do you fill your world with Jesus
• Following Jesus = death sentence= life
• Where does your suffering come from? Your own wants or the desires of the King
• Teamwork!
• G-d’s plan always moves forward
• G-d calls and He sends
• GO! Go!
• No partiality, Know principles
• Who am I that I can stop the way of G-d?
• Repentance = life
• John was also call Mark???
• Preach Jesus

Crazy Love week 1
this book is a must have.
We are working through it on Wensedays.
Here are some thoughts from week one.
We are working through it on Wensedays.
Here are some thoughts from week one.
When you pray do you consider how you enter into G-d's presence?
- Eccl 5:2 - Matt 6:7
- Explore Lev. 16 to see how it was done in the Old Testment
How do you see G-d?
Can you see Him in Nature
- Romans 1:19-22
- Ps. 19:1-4
G-d is ...
- Holy - Lev. 19:2b
- Eternal - Ps. 90:2
- All-Knowing - Ps 147:4,5
- All-powerful - Matt. 19:26
New Testament in 30 days
And so it begins – Reading through the New Testament in 30 days. The Bible declares that we should not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of G-d. So this is a booster shot of sorts.
I will try to post random thoughts/questions from my daily reading
Day 1 - Matthew 1 – 12
• You have a History- what is it?
• Be lead by the Spirit
• When the message is about Jesus, people will come
• Temptation comes 1. When you follow the Spirit 2. When you are tired 3. When you are hungry
• Are you willing to leave everything to follow Jesus
• Our gospel is worthless and is being trampled under the feet of the community, BUT Christ Gospel is still holding its flavor
• Adultery= Looking & Lusting
• Pray for your enemies?!?!
• Do good to those that hate you? By doing this we reflect our Father in Heaven
• Is what you are doing in secret worthy of a reward?
• Seek and you Will find! What are you looking for?
• Hearer + Doer = wise
• “I am willing” Jesus
• Jesus sees things different. We call it dead and He says it’s only sleeping.
• Instruct before you send
• Sparrows < You
• Good works stirs things up!

Winning
The Apostle Paul encouraged the church at Corinth to “run in such a way that you may win!”
So the question comes – How do you win? Well I’m glad you asked. Here are a few thoughts taken from the wisdom of Paul’s letter to the Corinthians.
To win you have to have a passion for what you are doing. Paul stated “for I am under compulsion; for woe is me if I do not preach the gospel.” Paul was driven by the passion of preaching the gospel.
This passion carried him through tough times and humbled him during times of success.
What are you passionate about?
To win you have to remember the small things. Paul said “To the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might win Jews.” Paul had to keep in mind all the details of the Jewish tradition even the traditions that seemed insignificant. Paul keeps the details.
Don’t overlook the small things.
To win it will take discipline. Paul declared “but I discipline my body and make it my slave.” He didn’t allow his body to guide him through desires. He ignored the pain. He stayed focused.
Discipline?
Run in such a way that you may win!
