Sunday Highlights

This series is one of those that just seems to get better week after week.

Today Pete‘s message was “Hope for the Future”.  I’ll give you a few quotes & scriptures but then I want to leave you with this video about Shelia.  Shelia’s story sums up the power of hope for our futures!

• Don’t let your life count for anything less than something great.
• Acts 1:8
• The evil one is so brilliant at trapping us into yesterday (reliving our past mistakes and regrets).
• It’s possible to miss the incredible power of hope because we downplay sin our life.
• When you minimalize sin, you minimalize God and become a very self-sufficient individual.
• Luke 18:9-14
• When you try to overcome something by your own will, it will beat you.
• When you realize how enormous your sin is, you can embrace how incredible God’s hope is.

“Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope:

Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.

They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.”

Lamentations 3:21-23
