Sunday Snapshot... (Attitude of Gratitude)


Start the New Year right tomorrow at COC!!
ONE SERVICE - 10:45a at the PAC!!

Attitude of Gratitude (Duncan Robinson)

Here's a sneak-peak...

GRATITUDE is LOUD!
-From the overflow of your heart the mouth speaks! (Luke 6:45)

Gratitude Sustains Blessings - Sympathy Lessens Burdens!

GRATITUDE starts where our Self-Entitlement ends! (Love This!!)

Gratitude is viewing life as a gift - it frees us from the prison of self pre-occupation!

Sometimes we don't know how THANKFUL we should be until what we HAVE is threatened! (Wow!)

Many of us are "hard of thanking" and so we miss mountains of blessings - looking for the epic gift!

DON'T MISS SUNDAY! (PAC / Unified Service - 10:45a only!)

GOD CAME NEAR... (Christmas Eve)


It happened in a moment-a most remarkable moment... GOD CAME NEAR!

God Came Near... In astounding tandem… a HUMAN BODY housed DIVINITY!
HOLINESS and EARTHLINESS… INTERTWINED!!

And if He is who He says He is - there is no TRUTH worth BELIEVING more!

Matthew 1:21-22... You are to give him the name JESUS because he will save his people from their sins! He shall be called IMMANUEL... GOD WITH US!

John 1:14... And the Word BECAME Flesh and dwelt among us – and we beheld His glory… full of Grace and Truth!

Only in seeing your MAKER does a man truly become a MAN!
For in seeing his CREATOR - man catches a glimpse of what he was intended to BE!

GOD CAME NEAR... The WORD became FLESH!

When Jesus went home - He left the back door open!

John 3:16... IF YOU BELIEVE HE CAME FOR YOU - YOU CAN HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE!!

DO YOU BELIEVE...?

Don't Miss Christmas Eve at COC!

Sunday Snapshot... (Biggest BUTS Of The Bible)


(7) The "BUT" That Changes Everything! (Jesus)

John 3:16 - 'For God so loved the world that He gave His only son - that whosever believes in Him will not perish "BUT" have eternal life!'

Jesus' "BUT" Prayer in the GARDEN = TOTAL SURRENDER!

You must first reach a FAITH level that understands IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU… IT’S ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT HIM!

IN GOD’S REALITY – SURRENDER ISN’T WEAKNESS… IT’S STRENGTH!!

The "BUT" of an EMPTY TOMB...

They came to the TOMB facing FINALITY and IMPOSSIBILITY and encountered UNENDING and POSSIBILITY!

The "BUT" that can CHANGE ANYTHING... remembering that there's nothing in your life that HE CAN’T HANDLE!

DEATH IS NOT THE END - IT’S ONLY THE BEGINNING!


BIGGEST "BUTS" OF THE BIBLE... (Check yourself before you Wreck yourself!)

IS YOUR "BUT" IN THE WAY OF GOD MOVING (it) IN A BIG WAY?

Sunday Snapshot... (Biggest BUTS Of The Bible)


(6) The "BUT" that ARGUES WITH GOD! (Moses)

WELCOME TO THE MHS PERFORMING ARTS CENTER!! (TY Jesus!!)

B…B…B…"BUT"
The stuttering "BUT" of ARGUMENT that asked GOD His name - MOSES!

Knowing WHO GOD IS - means Knowing WHO YOU AREN'T!
Trust in WHO HE IS - regardless of WHAT you're going through is key!

As God invites you and I into HIS STORY – He continually assures us of one CONSTANT THING – “HE WILL BE WITH US EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!”

If you want to step into God’s Presence and discover His will - then you’ll have to step out of YOUR COMFORT ZONE and into HIS CARE!

If you want to step into God’s Presence and discover His will - You’ll have to step away from YOUR HUMANITY and into HIS HOLINESS!

One of the most difficult Biblical concepts for us to grasp is that God is FAITHFUL even when we are FAITHLESS!

Whatever God asks… Don’t dwell on what YOU can't do! REJOICE in the fact that GOD COUNTS YOU WORTHY to show HIS GLORY through your TRIALS!

(Wk5) The "BUT" of ARGUMENT (Gideon)

The "BUT" of Argument (Gideon)…
God’s view of you ISN’T based on your PEDIGREE or PERFORMANCE - but rather your POTENTIAL & POSSIBILITY!

The "BUT" of Argument (Gideon)…
When God has Spoken - there’s no Second opinion! ESPECIALLY YOUR OWN!

The "BUT" of Argument (Gideon)…
Contrary to what you think - You’re NOT the World’s Leading EXPERT on Yourself… GOD IS!!

The "BUT" of Argument (Gideon)…
REALITY is the difference between THEOLOGY and “SEEOLOGY!"

The "BUT" of Argument (Gideon)…
Please know… God KNOWS your Weaknesses before He CALLS you! Therefore… your EXCUSES have no effect on Him!

The "BUT" of Argument (Gideon)…
OBEDIENCE brings FEARFUL Followers - FEARSOME Victories!


Don't Miss This One - Pastor Mat's gonna BRING IT!!!

LAST SUNDAY AT MWMS!!! (9a/10:45a)
