Pressing On Towards the Goal
Paul pressed on past his past and fixed his eyes on Jesus. What is your focus? Is it on God or on self? Is your hope placed in heaven? All of Paul's dreams and aspirations were put on the one thing that could save him. His eyes and hope was fixed on his Savior Jesus Christ.

Don't Wait for Your Ship to Come In, Live Life Now
Each year many millions of people make resolutions hoping for a better life than the one they have at this moment. Too often though, they have not stopped to consider that hastily bypassing now for later causes them to lose out on the present joy of God's blessings.

The past and the future
In other words, this new church is not a creation in and of itself. It is part of an ongoing creation. Part of an exciting, adventurous, creative process. God is moving. God is creating.

The Past Is the Key
This is the beginning of a new series: God With Us—the meaning of His name, Emmanuel. Sometimes it is necessary to look back at a former experience in order to acknowledge that God was with you at the time. Hindsight is always 20/20 vision especially when it comes to recognizing His presence. The Israelites didn’t recognize God’s presence during the crossing of the Red Sea until after they made it across safely. King David wrote songs about this event 10 generations later. And once you have determined God’s continual abiding presence, step down and let Him take over. The next time you are going through difficulty and can’t imagine God being present, look back later on and you will find that He was there all along.

Am All Knowing
God is someone who always sees the path ahead of us. What would it mean to walk with a God like that? I can trust God with my future & exchange my O.K. plans for His best plans. I can also trust God with my present. This is tough for the Google-map culture we live in. We expect to know every step NOW. What would it mean to trust this all-knowing God with my past?

Know Where You've Been
How can we be confident of God's faithfulness? The proof is in the past--we have a record of God's continual protection and provision in our personal and collective memories. Just as Caleb and Joshua knew that God would sustain them as they entered the promised land because God had already delivered them from Egypt and provided along the way, so we can look back on our own lives and see how God's hand is always at work. We don't have to know where we're going but where we've been!

There's No Place Like Home
Redeeming Ruth Part 3 "There is no place like home" Ruth 1:19-22 The road back from bitterness involves: 1. Moving beyond past hurts. These past hurts may result from: * Disaster * Disappointment * Decisions * Discipline Naomi's bitterness were a result of: * Death 2. A personal homecoming. Bethlehem was a place known for God's * Praise * Presence * Provision * People 3. A proper humility. Humility teaches you how God: * Brings you back home * Breaks you down * Blesses you again

Freedom from the Past
The past has power beyond the past. Psychology, history, and personal experience all testify to that. So much power, in fact, that it has been said that we may be slaves to our past: slaves to regret and guilt for things we have done, slaves to shame and anger for things done to us, slaves to relational habits developed and strengthened with each day and each repetition. Must this always be so? Or can we be freed from our past? Listen in as we delve into the autobiography of the Apostle Paul.
