Subject: Being a fanatic
We made it through our sermon series on becoming a fanatic. I think I'll have to go over it a hundred times the rest of my life if I really want to live it the way I learned it. So glad He still provides rivers of living water!

Subject: Unreasonable Love
Lightning point for Sunday August 25th, 2024: This kind of love isn't reasonable but it is the only love that makes sense of everything we know to be true. Thunder Point: "We were made and reborn for a love that calls us all to repentance, covers a multitude of sins, and endures many hardships while trusting God and hoping for the best in others. 1 Cor 13:7

Subject: Stewardship
To whom much is given, much will be required (Luke 12:48). You had better let you have been blessed with determine how much you bless others. Bless out of your strength and do not hold back because nothing less than a serious effort to apply that which has been given into our stewardship as a blessing from God is a mistake. We can do this. #reachingnewheightsinjesus

Subject: Seek God and Being blessed
Asa followed the principle that if you seek God you will be blessed. It's better than many other principles the world comes up with but it is not the knowledge that saves. The equation is this: seek God and He will show Himself. God does all the saving work through His son Jesus Christ. #reachingnewheightsinjesus

Subject: Lifestyle and sins
Sometimes we think that being a Christian is like living a simple lifestyle or doing away with certain sins that offend. Lifestyle and sin count are certainly affected but these things are not even primary. Our goal is a right relationship with God through His son. As we have sought Him so He has revealed Himself and as we have walked in Him so we have become are becoming someone that more glorifies Him. We need Him more than He wants us which is saying a lot because He wants us more than the universe or more than we can understand wanting. Thank you God for paving the way.

Subject: Cage Match
Life is a cage match. We won until we didn't. We thought we were just getting by even though we weren't. Get on the right side, the winning side, and run the real race apart from the rat race. Jesus had already paid the tab and you and others like you are sitting at the tables refusing to get up because they don't want to walk out without paying. Stuck much?

Subject: Music
New Heights Fellowship worship is a mix of "hymns" and more contemporary music. Our music is led by our praise team Not Of This World Praise Band. We use piano, keyboard, drums, guitar, and bass guitar with both male and female vocal leads. The hymns from "the hymnal" are mixed in updated but we do not use hymnals. We use power points to display words. We usually do at least one song <br>every worship service with motions and involve the children to learn them and sing. I pray that those who are set in a certain way of worshipping will always find a place or create a place for like-minded individuals to worship. Personal preference in this area is absolutely fine but it is truly more important to be found faithful in the church that God has placed you in. If yes believer don't stop trying hard to find your permanent church home.

Sunday's sermon for me thinking about how we can literally spend time with the risen Savior. He is with us and in us in everything we do if we have been born again. We ought to seriously consider then what o it r actions should be since He is meant to be participating in every one of them with us. The fact that He continues to make intercession for us eternally is the only reason we remained saved forever even if we make mistakes.
