This week, I will be talking about "How to Defeat Discouragement." This message was planned for this week. Isn't God's timing perfect? If you are discouraged or know someone who is, share this message with them.

And I will be talking about "How to overcome Persistent Temptation." We often get stuck in the same patterns in life... good intentions... which leads to failure... which leads to guilt. How can this cycle be broken? The key to overcoming persistent temptation is not to resist it, but to rethink it. In this message we will look at 9 ways to rethink temptation so it loses its power over your life.

And I will be talking about "The Problem of Sin." If someone were to ask you what the biggest problem in your life is... you might answer, "The biggest problem in my life is stress... or the biggest problem in my life is my relationships." But what if the biggest problem in your life... is you? In this message, I'm going to define what sin is, why it's a problem, and how to break free from it.

This week I will be talking about "How to manage your mind!" Do you ever have trouble making your mind... mind? Does your mind seem to have a mind of it's own? Do you ever find yourself thinking thoughts you know are unhealthy for you?

This week, we will be talking about "How to ReThink Your View of Yourself." What would happen if you could truly change the way you see yourself? What if you could change those recurring thoughts, notions, and ideas that have imprisoned you and left you feeling helpless?

What happens when you change your mindset and begin to think like Jesus. This weekend I am going to show you 10 characteristics in the life of a person who thinks like Jesus. And guess what? It's far more possible than you think.

Changing our behavior and overcoming bad habits are not easy things to do. We often try to do this by changing our actions. We think this will solve the never-ending cycle of doing things we shouldn't. But if we really want to change our behavior, we have to look at the underlying forces - which are our thought patterns.

In this series, I will talk about how changing your behavior becomes possible by changing the way you think. No matter where you are on your faith journey, you'll find the encouragement you need to grow in your love for God and for others.

Sometimes you have these plans, and things go wildly different than you planned. You're not going to believe how weird our vacation became and what God showed us.
