Making the Most of Our Lives Sermon Series: Making the Most of Your Days

Text: Psalm 90
Time is precious.  We need to prioritize what we do in our life.  God, People, Joy, and Calling should be our focus.  The other parts are what we  do to fill in our time.

This is one of a four sermon series focused on developing a picture of a biblical steward.  The series is titled, "Making the Most of All We've Been Given."  The stewardship topics are time, money, lives and creation.

Do Not Be Afraid

Luke 12:22-34
The question of the morning is, "Who are you going to listen to?"  There are plenty of voices out there screaming scarcity, crying out about all that we used to have that we don't have any more.  And then there is Jesus' voice, reminding us that God has always blessed us, and will always bless us.  And there is Jesus' voice issuing the invitation to faith -- "Don't be afraid."
