From Comfort to Calling, Part 1b
Thursday, December 01, 2011
References: Matthew 4
Yesterday, we began a detailed look at three specific tasks or areas within Jesus’ earthly ministry. Today, we put most of our focus on the 3rd of these, that is, invading the comfort zone of believers. Perhaps you see it in your church. The congregation seems to have a sense of what they’re to be about as followers of Jesus, but they cannot or will not step outside their comfort zone, thereby defaulting the work to the “professional staff”. Join us today as featured speaker Jim Shaddix implores us all to change this pattern.

The Mystery of Marriage
Marriage…. It is, and has been a foundational part of civilized cultures all over the world. But, in case you hadn’t yet heard, traditional marriage has become a very politicized subject, with many special interest groups attempting to push their definition of marriage.
In 2006, Pastor Jim, preached a series of messages on marriage entitled, “The Mystery of Marriage”. No, this was NOT a commentary on the current political quagmire, but instead, a biblical review of the origins and significance of marriage. Based in Ephesians, “The Mystery of Marriage” looks at God’s purposes for marriage, the roles and responsibilities for men and women in marriage, and finally, the impact of culture’s attempts to re-define marriage.
So, whether you’re a newlywed, a marriage veteran of many years, or you are just now contemplating marriage, you’ll benefit greatly in hearing this biblical blueprint for the realities and issues of marriage. Join us for “The Mystery of Marriage”.
