The Pastor's Snack: Basin and Towel part 3
http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2010/11/basin-and-towel-part-3.html
Wednesday, November 17, 2010. Basin and Towel part 3. Perhaps the aspect of our relationship with Christ that is least appreciated is our. With Him. And for this reason do we live this life in constant pursuit of someone or something to satisfy that which Christ gave Himself. Here’s a little snack:. Thou shalt never wash my feet. 8221; (verse 8) This conversation between Peter and our Lord would serve as a dynamic focal point in Christianity… and yet so often overlooked. In other words, “Peter, you...

http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2012/02/three-postures-of-leadership.html
Friday, February 3, 2012. Three Postures of Leadership (Stewardship). This story equates greatly with what we might find in leadership today. Every leader is held accountable for their responsibility as a leader. We have all been given gifts by which we must use for the purpose of building value. The way we view our leadership might be called "posturing". In other words, how we "carry" ourselves as leaders. What is your stewardship posture? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Pastor's Snack: Press or Cut?
http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2012/01/press-or-cut.html
Sunday, January 1, 2012. Have you noticed how easy it is, when facing some dilemma, to very quickly begin to think of what might be the easiest way to avoid the problem? Do you see how that "pressing" can be better than quitting. In 2012, stop saying "What would be easier." Instead, work hard to do hard things better. High calling of God in Christ Jesus.

The Pastor's Snack: Abiding In Christ part 2
http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2010/12/abiding-in-christ-part-2.html
Thursday, December 9, 2010. Abiding In Christ part 2. What is it that He is doing exactly? What purpose does He have in this process of pruning and plucking? John 15 tells us that He is preparing the vine for future growth. He is making preparations for mass quantities of heavy fruit that will soon cause these newly wounded branches to bow down low to the ground- as if to worship the husbandman as He makes His way through the garden. Will you rejoice or will you reject? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Pastor's Snack: Oops, I did it again, without the help of the Holy Spirit!
http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2010/12/oops-i-did-it-again-without-help-of.html
Wednesday, December 15, 2010. Oops, I did it again, without the help of the Holy Spirit! As we read the words of Christ in this 16th chapter, we can’t help but believe that Jesus saw a great significance in the Holy Spirit’s coming. Much emphasis is made of his coming into and guiding of our life. Verse 7 says, “. Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. Pastors Mike Ca...

The Pastor's Snack: In Love? Really?
http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2011/08/in-love-really.html
Tuesday, August 9, 2011. I recently overheard a conversation between two love-birds. I wasn't listening on purpose. really, I wasn't. But the emotion of their dialogue was comically enticing. While their ramblings made me snicker, I found it somewhat relieving to know that two people could feel so open to express themselves with such vulnerability. It was obvious that this young couple were in love. I mean, is it possible to have varying degrees of emotion for a person or thing? Being "in" love is a posi...

The Pastor's Snack: Worry part 1
http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2010/12/worry-part-1.html
Friday, December 3, 2010. To worry, about anything, is to give evidence to the condition of your heart. We must stop using our great care for this world as justification for our lack of faith in an all-sufficient God. Verse 1 of chapter 14 reads like this: “ Let not your heart be troubled. Ye believe in God, believe also in me. 8221; How beautiful this one verse is! Sin because, by default, worry is the absence of faith in God and His all-sufficient grace. This should be alarming to Christians! If not, a...

http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2010/12/abiding-in-christ-part-1.html
Wednesday, December 8, 2010. Abiding in Christ part 1. We will be taking a hard look this week at John’s 15. Gospel chapter. Some of the most powerful words ever spoken from the mouth of God in the flesh were spoken in this chapter. What is understood from His teaching here could mean the difference between heaven and hell. There are many themes in this chapter:. God’s sovereignty is an awesome theme displayed in verse 1. 8220;…my father is the husbandman.”. Verse 8 says, “. I want to spend this week lea...

http://thepastorssnack.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 16, 2012. Are you struggling in prayer? If you struggle at times in your prayer life, you stand in an extremely long line of Christians who find it difficult to pray at times. I want to give you a few pointers that may help. 1 Schedule a regular time of prayer. I recommend that your prayer time be early. This is when Jesus chose to pray to His Father. Mark 1:35. Make sure that your place of prayer is without distraction if possible. 2 Use the Bible as a guide to your prayers. We all know ...
