Pastor’s Choice for September 2018

Dr. Kyle Strobel spoke at the 2018 Calvary Global Network Pastors & Leaders Conference. His message is titled, “Embracing a Ministry of Power.” Kyle is a theologian at Talbot School of Theology, Biola University, and is the author of several books. In this month’s pastor’s choice, he addresses this question, “Are you and I as Christians employing the power of the world to obtain Kingdom success whether in ministry or our christian walk?” He claims we are in an age marked by Christians and christian leaders who have sought to employ the methods of the world to gain Kingdom success.

Watch now to learn what it means to embrace a ministry of power via the way of Christ.

R.C. Sproul

The Holiness of God examines the meaning of holiness and why people are both fascinated and terrified by a holy God. R.C. closely explores God’s character, leading to new insights on sin, justice, and grace. The result is a new awareness of our dependence upon God’s mercy and a discovery of the awesomeness of His majestic holiness. R.C. Sproul says, ‘It affects every aspect of our lives — economics, politics, athletics, romance — everything with which we are involved.’

Pastor Timothy Keller gave a sermon at an open forum back in 1994 entitled “A Reason for Living”. In it he addresses the issue of life and it’s worth. He says, “To find absolute freedom in life, we must admit that life on its own accord is meaningless. True meaning in life is only found through Jesus Christ, the designer of life.” As you listen, see if you’re not compelled to consider his arguments as they pertain to your own life.

Mark Driscoll – John 6:16-22

Pastor Mark Driscoll is currently teaching through the Gospel of John. In this sermon, we learn a great many truths about ourselves as we watch what Jesus does with His disciples in a boat in a storm on the sea (John 6:16-22). One of the overriding messages in this teaching deals with God’s desire for relationship. In the middle of the sermon, Mark sheds some important light on the need for us to have regular solitude with God (not isolation but solitude).

We often seek God to fix our outward storms, but God comes to firstly deal with those that are inward. Do we recognize God in the midst of our storms? How incapacitated are you by fear of the storm? How are we to rise above the storms of life with Jesus?

Hello Newsletter Subscribers

Today begins the first post of the JFBelievers Newsletter Blog. This will be a more frequent way to distribute informative updates from our community. So, we have done away with the magazine-style newsletter because, in this day and age, most people seek information electronically. Therefore, we felt that even the digital flip-book version of the newsletter tended to get mostly overlooked by the average reader since it dropped a large amount of information in front of your eyes at once. That’s just not how information distribution is preferred these days.

So, what you can expect is an article at a time over the days of the month. Doing this will give you the opportunity to ingest each report (with photos) as they come out day by day. It will save you time over all and we hope it will inspire more of your attention to all the writings from the various ministries of our community.

All articles will be view-able at: https://www.jfbelievers.com/news-blog/ at any time. There you will notice that you can sort the article feed by date or category, and you can even search the entire catalog of articles by keyword.

We hope you enjoy this new feature and we thank you for your patience as we dial in the consistency and type of information you receive through this blog.
