Discipleship
Posted on April 9th, 2009 No comments“Winning Souls” is a lot different than “Making Disciples”. Jesus commands us to make disciples. I can’t think of anywhere in the Bible that says “win souls for Jesus”. A soul that’s “won” too often becomes withered (fallen). A disciple is on a path toward Jesus.

Asking for Protection from Myself
Posted on January 18th, 2009 No commentsPastor Doyle spoke about leaving unholy things behind us today in service. Then tonight, I got upset with [my middle daughter], and [my wife] mad a comment about a face I make when I get really upset. I realize that my anger often becomes rage far too quickly and easily.
I choose to ‘leave behind’ my anger.
Lord, please protect me from anger, especially with those who love me. -
Surrender

Don’t force it… allow it (surrender)
Surrender is the only battle you win by giving up… To the degree you empty yourself, you will be filled up with the spirit of God.
