Series: Spiritual Actions that will Help Defeat the Plague

Many crowds followed Jesus. They were impressed by his words of wisdom. They were impressed because he did miracles and cast out demons. He could stand his own. He could take on the “big guys.” But what did it mean to be a follower of the Lord? What does it mean today?

One thing about little children is that they are willing to ask. Have you been around a young child recently? Innocence drives children. You are big. They are small. You must have the help/food/toy/ability they need. So they do not hesitate to ask.

This week’s sermon is all about three simple words that Jesus said:  DO NOT JUDGE. This seems like a simple topic–so why is it so hard to talk about? Perhaps people will judge my sermon and it will come up short! Perhaps my sermon will make them feel guilty! So should I make it funny?

Have you ever ignored God’s instruction to help your enemies? Only God knows the real heart of others and He extends His love and mercy to all. Today’s sermon will discuss the story of Jonah and why it is important for us to use our gifts where God needs us.

Attitudes can make all the difference. Have you been in a restaurant where the waiter had a great attitude? Or perhaps you’ve experienced a clerk in a store who went the second mile for you? Attitude makes a difference!

A man named Zig Ziglar said, “Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.” Do you remember Zig Ziglar?

Join us to hear a message from guest preacher Rev. Jim Witherow who will be sharing a message titled “The Power of Words.” He will be preaching from Matthew 5:33-37 in continuation of Pastor Ginger’s series on Spiritual Actions that will help Defeat the Plague.

Because we are the salt and light that God is using to save others, we need to be able to allow people to see God in our lives and not sell God to their lives. God is not a business model, but He is a savior that truly wants a relationship with His people. It doesn’t matter race, attitude, past, or mistakes made. This is what people need to know and see that God wants all of you.
