This is our final week in our series on generosity "Living My Blessed Life". This week are talking about what it means to live for service not for self and to be generous with our time.
This is week 3 in our series Living My Blessed Life. When it comes to generosity there is different levels and steps to becoming more generous. Generous people don't see everything that comes to them is for them. Pastor Jack challenges us what it would looks like to take another step, go to the next level in living a blessed life.
The single biggest barrier that stands between you and truly living the blessed life is worry. Worry causes us to think irrationally and gets us in a cycle thats keeps us from living the blessed life. Scripture teaches us against worry, but why do we still do it? Pastor Jack unpacks different mindsets that worry causes, and challenges us to making steps to break the cycle and live the blessed life.
There is a big difference between giving and generosity. And generosity is more than random acts of giving, or serving one time or letting a friend borrow something once. A generous heart comes from recognizing how God has been generous to us. Jesus Himself said it’s better to give than receive. Pastor Jack unpacks myths of generosity and calls us to deeper understanding of what it means to live generous life and live a blessed life.
Did you know that our attitudes towards God and work are connected? We love worshipping God on Sunday and let our light shine, but once we get back to work on Monday we can often turn it off. In scripture it clearly calls that we are meant to treat what we do, "our work" as worship.
It's so easy to worship God and give him thanks and praise when life is going great! But what about when life gives us twist and turns we weren't expecting and gets difficult. How do we worship God in those moments? Chad Vandenburg one of the elders here at Cityline church teaches on how we can do that through life's difficult circumstances. Chad was working in 2016 for the Lakewood Sheriff's Department and was shot in the line of duty and teaches practical steps on how to worship through difficult seasons.
What weapons do you use to attack your problems? Do you handle drama with weapons of this world like anger or our words to lash back? In week 3 of our series on Worship titled Overflow, Pastor Jack teaches that we can use Worship as a weapon and practical ways to make worship our response.
This week 2 of our series Overflow a series on Worship. This week we are talking about our posture in worship. We see in the story of David this idea of being completely consumed by the presence of God. Pastor Jack teaches on the Hebrew understanding of the word Praise and the different words they use, and challenge us to go deeper in worship.
This is week 1 of our brand new series called Overflow, a series about Worship. This week we unpack what worship is, and how we can find ourselves worshipping things in our lives before God.
This is a special message that reflects on the incredible things God has done in and through Cityline church in the past year, and also shares some exciting surprises for the future.
