Repentance is a U-Turn from Sin and Self. Off-ramp: start with your own prayer, then find a fellowship of prayers. Your fellowship needs to hold you accountable and that's not always comfortable. Remember the stakes.

Elder Ordination of Adam Griffin

Repentance is a U-Turn from Sin and Self. Off-ramp: humble yourself, take responsibility for your actions. Take responsibility means making restitution.

Repentance is a U-TURN from sin and self. Off-ramp: Practice being good; it will help you learn repentance. Remember that GOD is jealous for his people. Avoid your idols and/or surrender them. God loves barking and not biting.

Repentance is a U-TURN from sin and self. Off-ramp: repentance happens when we hate our sin and when we love GOD more than we love ourselves. GOD doesn't want grand gestures, he wants a broken heart.

U-Turn: Profiles in Repentance. Cain and Abel Sin is missing the mark, and it always brings consequences. God Gives us many off-ramps to help make a U-Turn. If we don't make a spiritual U-Turns, we'll become restless wanderers.

The dysfunction: every family has a black sheep. Maybe this Christmas it's time to bring some black sheep back into the fold. Jesus restores every black sheep.

The Dysfunction: dereliction of duty. The Dysfunction: doubling down The Solution: Jesus shows up.

Every intimate relationship is dysfunctional. Jesus redeems our intimate relationships, making them fully functional.

Every family is dysfunctional. Judgment without mercy is dysfunctional. Mercy without judgment is dysfunctional. Only Jesus' judgment and mercy make us fully functional.

He'll remember that you're the most amazing girl in the world when he gets the respect he needs. The respect he needs appreciates his adventures, leadership and shoulder to shoulder friendship.

Meeting the needs of your spouse or girlfriend. She'll remember that you're the most amazing guy in the world when she gets the love she needs.

Meeting your spouse at the peak of the mountain. It's a trek, it's a journey, but the payoff at the peak is better than you can believe. It's the completion God had in mind when he brought you together in the first place.

The marriage series. You are great when you cultivate. Cultivating GOD's creation is impossible alone. We need families to complete the Marriage Mission. God made Men and women to complete each other. Love and Respect are the key to the marriage mission.

God wants the hardest thing to bring: humility. God doesn't deal in donuts: God is Grace

Sometimes GOD lets bad things happen to force us onto the road. Evangelizing is the easiest when you're with your people. But sometimes you have to get on the road to find them. First responders find the lost and introduce them to Jesus. Experts ground new disciples in the truth of the faith. Intel and logistics reveal what's happening and provide for the vulnerable.

On the road, GOD give us space to think and consider. GOD opens our eyes and we do not walk along

Meet seekers on the road of life.

Evangelism is an adventure! Expect resistance. No distractions. Stay focused on the mission. God's people will take care of you!
