February Sermon Themes

February 6: Don't worry, be happy! How many times have we heard that phrase, either in song or in a comedy routine? Like many things in this life, it's easier said than done. But Jesus, during his time here on earth, revealed the keys to unlocking the secret that can make this well worn phrase a reality in our lives. Listen to this week's message, and see if you can claim the keys to making "don't worry, be happy" a reality in your life!

February 13: Jesus taught that we should be very slow to judge, because there is no way we can know all the circumstances behind a person's behavior. We see more clearly if we seek to become more like Christ, and take care of our own short comings first. The way we win the world is to listen and not judge - our job is to share hope and be the people of kindness and mercy.

February 20: What do you really, really need? As life becomes more and more complicated, it seems that we need more and more things. We seem to need things today that were not even imagined a few decades ago. God is our heavenly provider, and will meet our true needs. Jesus taught that we should pray to God for our needs. By doing so we build a relation with God, and receive what we truely need. God is not a trickster, he will give us only good things.

February 27: How do we discern good from bad? How do we as Christians grow in goodness and become more Christ like? Scripture provides the answers to these questions through analogies that a gardner would instantly know. See if you relate to what Christ has to say to these questions as recorded in scripture.
