Statements of Faith
I jotted these down this morning in contemplation of yesterday’s message from Colossians 3:1-11. I am ranking them from most important to least important. I don’t know that they are true. I just wrote them down.
Please give me your feedback on these statements: (Agree/Disagree)
Please pray for my dear friend John Ragsdale
Many of you know that John’s brother, Joshua, has been fighting leukemia for almost a year now. I just received a message that Joshua passed away at 6:15am this morning. I am not sure Joshua’s age, but he and I are right around the same age (early 30s). He was an extremely talented song writer and singer. He was working in Nashville with some of the big name producers and artists.
Now, the Ragsdale family is walking through the valley of the shadow of death, but we all know that GOD is with them. We must be with them too. During this time, John has been unable to work (travel and minister), so his personal finances have taken a hit. If you are able, you can send some assistance. Check out his blog for more details on how to do that. http://johnragsdaleblog.com/
I love John and Kristin so much. It hurts me to see them go through such a tough time.

Are you a Disciple?
Yesterday, we explored the concept of being a disciple of Jesus. What does that look like? What does that mean? Last night, my dad came on stage with me to discuss the sermon with our Sunday night service. He told us about a list he came up with to ‘check himself’. These 6 questions, are a way to take a spiritual inventory. I thought I would pass them along to you. Wow, they are very revealing to your intent and motives. They are inspired by Matthew 7.
Are you doing the will of the Father? Here is a check list to find out:
- Do you eagerly anticipate reading the Word and connecting in prayer with God?
- What do you daydream and worry about?
- Do you know more about sports (or other social interest) than you do about scripture?
- What are your goals and ambitions?
- Do you look to your job for security and self worth?
- Do you dress and act to attract attention to yourself, or to God?

Several times in scripture it says that Jesus is ‘seated at the right hand of God’. Our first thought is that means he is geographically sitting in a certain physical position. However, that is not the meaning or context of the passage. The original readers of the New Testament recognized this phrase not as a physical position but a …
