February 12, 2023Mt Pleasant :: Randy Forrester : The Power of Overlooking an Offense
Bible Study
Don't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: Proverbs 17:14, 19:11, Col 3:12-17.
Sermon Notes
Overlooking an offense is a practical and powerful tool in biblical peacemaking
The precondition of overlooking is to be slow to anger. To cultivate a "slow-to-anger" response, consider these suggestions:express your anger in healthy and safe ways
remember your own faults (log and speck - Matt 7)
remember God's character – he is slow to anger

Overlooking is not always the right responseextreme offenses or injustices should not be overlooked – such as physical or verbal abuse
Sins which do damage to that person, to you, or to someone else should not be overlooked

Overlooking is not excusing a wrong

Overlooking is an active response of choosing to forgive the offense without conversation or confrontation

Overlooking is not keeping a record of wrongs to use it against a person later

Overlooking means not telling other people about the offense

Suggestions for practicing overlookingbe practical – it takes a lot of time and emotional energy to prolong a conflict
Stop the internal debate – overlooking means you do not have to figure out who was right and who was wrong, you can simply apply grace
discipline your emotions – hurt feelings, anger, and annoyance are real emotions. Don't deny them, but discipline them rather than letting them keep you from walking in obedience
remember God's mercy – he does not bring up all of our wrongs but allows his grace to cover over a multitude of our sins
Sermon Application
Why is undisciplined anger a barrier for overlooking an offense?

What are some additional practices for safely dealing with anger?

Is it easy for you to recognize your own faults? What might help you better see your own shortcomings?

When is overlooking not the right response?

Is overlooking excusing a wrong?

Describe some of the practical benefits of overlooking?

Describe a conflict you had when overlooking would have been the best response.

January 29, 2023 Mt. Pleasant :: Randy Forrester : Godly Wisdom, Worldly Wisdom
Bible Study
Don’t just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: 1 Corinthians 1:18 – 31, Matthew 16:21 – 23.Sermon Notes
Wisdom is “recognizing reality and responding rightly.”Paul presents two perspectives on the “word of the cross” (the message about Jesus’ death on a cross and what it means).Worldly wisdom perspective – the message of the cross is folly, a wrong view of ultimate reality
Godly wisdom perspective – the message of the cross is wisdom, a right view of ultimate reality
The Conflict – God destroys worldly wisdom because it fails in its most essential task of recognizing reality and responding rightly (and thereby deceives people).
Sermon Application
Do you agree with Randy’s definition of wisdom? How else might wisdom be defined?
How is wisdom different than knowledge?
Do you see the “spiritual buffet” mindset at work in you or those you know and love? Is that a problem? Why or why not?
What view of reality does “the word of the cross” present? Is that your view of reality?
Why does God need to destroy worldly wisdom?
What is the right way to respond to the “word of the cross”?

January 15, 2023Mt Pleasant :: Joanne Ellison: God Will Fight For You
Our guest preacher today is Joanne Ellison, founder and lead teacher for Drawing Near to God Ministry.
Bible Study
Don't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: I Chronicles 20:1-12 and Exodus 14:1-14
Sermon Notes
I Chronicles 20:1-12 and Exodus 14:1-14 teach us that the battle belongs to the Lord and that He will fight for us.
Three ways we see these Scriptures come to life:
In a battle, God is the Commander in Chief and His Presence goes with you. His instructions may not make sense.

God will give you what you need as you look to Him as the True Conqueror, but fear, grumbling, and complaining interfere with our seeing and hearing this.

God alone can do the impossible. It may not happen in way we would expect, but it will happen in a way that gives God glory
Sermon Application
In the heat of a battle/struggle, what are some of the ways you hear God’s voice and obey even when the way seems impossible or counterintuitive?

How can you avoid complaining or grumbling when fear gets the better of you during a battle/struggle?

What are some practical ways to take up your positions and stand firm amidst the battles of life?
