Getting People to Take Their Medicine
It has been said that the church is to be a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints. If the church is a hospital, what kind of medicine does it offer and how can it persuade patients to take it? Just as in every area of life, Jesus is our example here. He excelled in getting people to hear and accept what God had to say to them. He led many people to complete change and healing. What was his secret weapon? Key Verses: Lk 5:27-32, Matt 28:18, Lk 7:36-39, Matt 19:16-22, Eph 2:8-12, John 16:7-14, Lk 19:1ff, 1John 4:8

5 Ways To Wait
We all hate to wait and yet most of us believe that God is sovereign in His planning and timing. So why do we hate to wait? James 5:7-12 shows us that as believers, we are to wait without worrying, without wavering, without whining, without wondering and without warranting.

How Did I End Up Here?
Real spiritual growth occurs between the time when we say,"I give up" and the time when God shows up. When we get to the point where we're completely empty, broken and confused that's when we finally understand what it means to love God and be dependent on him.

Abraham: Man of patience
God has a plan to prosper us, He has a great plan for us. His plan takes time, they don’t happen overnight. We need patience, or endurance, if we are going to receive what the Lord desires for us. If we allow it to work, patience will cause us to be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. If you don’t want lack, be patient, stay in faith.

The Power of the Spirit on the Narrow Road
God in His grace has given us His Holy Spirit to work in our hearts so that our inward attitudes are right and this leads to holy outward behavior. The fruit of living with the Holy Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Because these traits only come from living with the Holy Spirit it is vital for us to stop, set aside our busyness and distractions, and spend time reading the Scriptures and in prayer so that we can listen to what the Spirit says and live by His power.

Walking with the Spirit on the Narrow Road
It is common to hear that all world religions are basically the same and this is said because their ethics overlap in many areas. Christianity is unique in that you are reconciled with God through faith and not through doing these good works. It is also unique in addressing the root cause for our inability to live up to these ethics: our sinful, deceitful hearts which desire to rebel against Him. God gives His Holy Spirit to Christians to rebuild their hearts so they begin to desire to walk in His ways. If we walk with the Holy Spirit by repenting of our sins, praying for His help to obey Him, learning from the Scriptures that He inspired, and stirring our affections for Christ, we can overcome the desires of our sinful hearts and live how He has called us to live.

Just as God shows gentleness toward us, we must show gentleness toward others when it is appropriate. The message includes three Bible lessons about godly gentleness.

The Biggest Sinner You Know
We all tend to think of others as being bigger sinners than ourselves. Paul saw it the other way around, and wanted us to as well. This statement is a summary of the whole Bible. We'll examine how Jesus saves, and why he saves sinners.

Learning patience with the Lord
You've probably all heard the saying "Lord, give me patience, and give it to me now!" It brings a smile to our faces, because we know it is true to life. This is so often how we feel. Today we are looking at the circumstances surrounding Jacob's birth. It seems to me that one of the main principles God wants us to grasp here is to do with patience and impatience.

God Never Forgets
Forgetfulness can be frustrating, both for those who forget and those who are forgotten. When we think God has forgotten us, it leads to disillusionment with God and his work in our lives. From the life of Abraham we learn that God never forgets. His timing may not be our timing, and we may have to learn patience in faith, but God never forgets.

Promises
Are we willing to wait in anticipation of what God has promised rather than demanding we get it now? We live in a "now" culture, where instant gratification is the norm. But Jesus' command to the disciples to simply wait on the Holy Spirit still holds true for us today. Pentecost is only a week away--can we wait that long?
