Quotes worth pondering

I am knee deep in preparation on my thoughts for Sunday’s message. Part of my process today is wading through a number of really good quotes. I’m not sure which one(s) I’ll use yet, but I’ll share them all with you (this way, you get a preview of some of what God is stirring in me for Sunday – aren’t you glad you read the blog :) ha)

What is Faith?

I am working on both my message for August 2nd as well as our brand new series on August 9th and I’m thinking about “faith”. What is it? Some would say faith is what you have what you don’t have facts. What I think they mean is that faith comes in play when you can’t point to solid facts, kind of like a “hope so” but a little stronger, since you believe it. Others say faith is acting on what you believe to be true which would seem to imply that you better be certain that you’re believing the right thing. But what is it really? We talk about it all the time, especially at church.

Worship pt.5: Worship and Music (service styles at Grace)

This concludes our blog series on worship, but it is not the end all be all on the topic. These are merely my thoughts on the subject (gleaned from Scripture, trustworthy authors and my own reflecting) but there is lots more to say on the topic.

Worship pt.4: Worship and Evangelism

Ok, I decided, we’ll do one more part after this one as we continue this blog series on worship. Let’s talk about a debated subject, worship and evangelism.

Worship pt.3: When and how should we worship?

We are continuing building on this topic of worship, culminating in a practical discussion on worship music at Grace Church. This is the third part in a multi-part blog series.
