In the spirit of the holidays Pastor Carl has been teaching/preaching a series of "'Tis the season". In continuation of this series, Robert Ferguson preached a sermon 'Tis the season To Grow. This message couldn't have come at a better time in my life. A time where my relationship with my boyfriend has ended. A time where my relationship with Christ is being mended. A time where I have to make decisions in my life concerning me. A time where I need to just grow up. Below are my church notes from yesterdays sermon. Hope this blesses you as much it has me.
Preacher: Robert Ferguson
Sermon Title: 'Tis the Season: To Grow
If you have to be persuaded to move, maybe you are not alive
Living things move; Living things reproduce, the bear fruit
If you have to be persuaded to tell your story maybe you have forgotten that you have been forgiven
Living things move; Living things reproduce, the bear fruit
If you have to be persuaded to tell your story maybe you have forgotten that you have been forgiven
All living things grow, we are called to grow

3 seeds that do not bear fruit:
1. Fall on the Path-has no understanding,
2. fall on the rocks-has no roots,
3. falls on thorns - had no focus
1. Know what you have
2. Receive what we can - psalm 92
3. Do what we must
2. Receive what we can - psalm 92
3. Do what we must
Do you have a real, personable, current relationship with Jesus?
