Today’s podcast is about Accept…

No not Udo Dirkschneider and the band Accept…

But that song “Balls to the wall is a killer song” Great riff…

 

No the song is not talking about what you think its’ talking about… watch the video and you will understand…. pervert! 

 

YOU KNOW WHAT I LEARNED?

"Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires-Song of Solomon 2:7”

Before you are married it means… don’t let yourself get hot and bothered and tempted.

Once you are married it actually means “don’t wake up your wife if your hot and bothered”. WHO KNEW? 

 

This weekend I will be in Fushear Texas making it rain at their Man up Conference at Thrive Church. I will also be preaching there on Sunday 9:45 and 11:15

- ACCEPTANCE - In every school you have brains jocks, druggies, invincible, socialites, losers, nobodies, babes, boys, the popular, the unpopular,  Kids excel where they are accepted.  This goes for home as well.

 

The beautiful picture of Jesus and his disciples was that he let them be boneheads. He accepted them for who they were. He lived a life that exemplified who God the father was… he said if you have seen me you have seen the father.

 

He didn’t tell them how to pray, he waited until they asked.

He let them ask dumb questions (can I be the greatest in heaven and sit by you?)

He let them fail… how long will you doubt.

He knew they doubted and he didn’t call them out.

He knew they sinned and didn’t embarrass them.

HE ACCEPTED THEM… but lived a different message.

 

What happens when you create an environment where you accept people for who they are, but still live like Jesus?

 

You create a hunger to live like Jesus.

What happens when you accept your kids for who they are but live like Jesus? You create a hunger for Jesus in them.

Same goes for your wife.

Your boss.

Your neighbor.

 

*YOU ARE WORRIED… they may think I approve of their behavior… not if your behavior is different! 

 

It’s this simple: your greatest Christian influence comes from accepting people = that means loving them regardless of who they are, how they act and what they say and do

…..not from telling them what they are doing wrong. 

And in turn you simply do what is right.
