The Kingdom Unleashed
Jerry Trousdale and Glenn Sunshine
THIS WEEK'S TAKEAWAYS

Key Theme:
Human life and consequently our plans are fragile and there is no confidence in our ability to control either, but there is humble security in putting life into God’s hands and being in his will.

Key Application:
Consider your life and live according to the truth, security, and true treasure found in God alone.

Key Verse:
James 4:15 “Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.”

Key Questions:
1. Spend some time writing down things you are not doing (acts of omission) you know you should be? How will your confession lead to change?

2. Whose profit is at the forefront of your life? Yours or the kingdom of God? How do you know? What evidence is there?

3. Acknowledging that planning is good, how can your plans take into consideration trust in the Lord and His will? Do they currently?
Resources for today’s sermon are available upon request in the church office.

Give Online

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
