Isaiah 61 “The Contentment of Following God’s Calling”

Isaiah 61 “The Contentment of Following God’s Calling” from Drew Boswell on Vimeo.

Today, after much prayer, discussion, and thought, we let the church know that the Lord has called us elsewhere. As I was delivering the message, I felt both anxious (in that I wanted to leave the church focused on Christ), and relieved. Pastoring of any kind (senior and staff) carries with it a weight that can not really be explained other than a sense of heavy responsibility. That weight has been lifted, and will return when we begin our new ministry a few months from now. So, for right now, we are able to rest, prepare our home for sale, celebrate with friends here, and anticipate what the future holds. Kimberly and my prayer has always been to make impact, wherever we are, for Christ. Please pray for us, as we begin this next stage of our ministry. We are always available to meet with you, and to just laugh and celebrate what God has done. God has allowed us to make so many friends over the eleven years that we have been here, and we don’t want those friendships to end.

Below is the outline of the message:

The Broken Box;
Jesus Calms the Storm

Matthew 8:23-27

I. Jesus Always Takes His Disciples on a Journey (vv. 23)
• Luke 14:26, 33

II. Jesus Always Puts His Disciples In Positions of Growth (v. 24-26a)

III. Jesus Always Wins (vv. 26b-27)
• 2 Corinthians 12:7-8
• Matthew 7:21-23

My Next Steps:
1. Memorize Matthew 8:25-26
2. When was the last time you felt Christ took you on a journey? Have you gotten into the boat, or do you prefer to stand on the shore? Take time this week to seek Christ for the express purpose of seeing if you are truly following Christ.
3. Tell someone who is not a follower of Christ what you have learned today, and how Jesus is taking you on a journey.
4. “Why are you Afraid?” Do you have an area of your life where you have fear, pray to Christ and ask Him to give you courage and boldness. Then step out in faith.
5. Jesus may be leading you to do something that has not been listed, write it down, and ask someone to hold you accountable to do this next step.

Daniel 3 “Courage to Come Out of the Furnace for a Lost World”

We live in a world where the ideal is rarely a true option, and we are faced with hard decisions everyday, moment by moment. As we journey through the book of Daniel we will meet a man who displayed remarkable courage while living in a world that constantly challenged his beliefs and values – yet he stood strong. Join us as we journey through Daniel, and see how you can apply it’s teaching to help you live a life of authenticity and courage.
