The audio from one of the services is up on the Internet, and they might post video later this week. Here's the link for those of you who had asked to hear it. Just click on the word "Listen" to the right of the entry for 03.15.09 once you get there.
"So let's do it—full of belief, confident that we're presentable inside and out. Let's keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word. Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching."
Hebrews 10:24-25 (MSG)
Yeah, I got to hear it in person. It was a great message and Rachel was wonderful.
ReplyDeleteGlad it went Rachel! And what a blessing it is to "heart" your church and the people there. I hope to get a chance to listen too.
ReplyDeleteYou are truly a blessed person to be able to do the things you do to help others.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you,
AliceE.
Just finished listening... Thank you for sharing! You both had some profound things to say... things I will ponder and 'tuck away'...
ReplyDeleteThank you for the ideas of how to guard ourselves as women... and I had to laugh at your analogy that Potifer's wife was "the first desperate housewife"... too funny... and too true!
Anyway... good stuff! You are using your God given talents! Keep it up!
P.S. What did you end up wearing???
Hey 5Skis,
ReplyDeleteMy church is quite casual so I wore dark jeans and a long sleeve turquoise top that's really hard to describe. (My pastor had on jeans too.) I'm usually a little dressier when I speak at other churches.
Great ideas on how to guard ourselves as women! So enjoyed this, I think I will ponder this for the day.
ReplyDeleteHave a Beautiful and Blessed day
Hey, Rachel! SO glad that y'all had a great weekend! I plan on listenting to the message later on tonight!!
ReplyDeleteWhen you get a chance, hop over to my blog--I finally finished some of my zebra projects!!OOh, I have a cute zebra shirt that I might have to wear to She Speaks this summer!!!
Hugs,
Susan
I will be at She Speaks--with bells on--waiting to praise God with y'all! Last year was awesome!
ReplyDeleteIs there a way to get those little buttons about SS for our blogs??
Thanks!!
Hugs,
Susan
I really enjoyed listening to the message.
ReplyDeleteOne thing that really jumped at me was a phrase from your pastor..If it is appealing to us physically, it will kill our souls. So true.
What was so appealing to me 18 years ago did kill my soul.
This is a personal journey I have just begun. I am gaining knowledge every day. It is not an easy journey but I know I am not walking it alone.
Thank you for giving us this link today.
Sorry to leave a message here. Just the email thing doesn't seem to work well. Did you have a chance to ask your people about the illustration? If they didn't like it, it is fine to run it the way you had it. I was just curious.
ReplyDeleteHey Amy. If you tried to email me this weekend, including Friday or Monday, I had apparently had some email issues because I've learned there are several messages I never received. I'll email you tonight!
ReplyDeleteI just listened!! It is great!! I have a friend that I'm going to have listen to this....I think it's just for her. =) Great job!! It made me miss you though....hearing your voice again. Thoughts from this summer come back and I hope one day I'll get to see you again!!
