Who Are We?
Something to think about: On August 17, 2003 our Assistant Minister, Doug Swan preached the following sermon. After hearing the sermon I felt compelled to share it, so he gave us his permission to use his outline on our site. It would be awesome if everyone used this outline to conform their work ethic. "Laziness" Fatal Distractions "Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in Heaven." Matthew 5:16 Working With Excellence 1. Work with ENTHUSIASM. "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men...: Colossians 3:23 "A lazy fellow is a pain to his employers-like smoke in their eyes or vinegar that sets teeth on edge." Proverbs 10:26 Poor 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Excellent (Where do you rate?) 2. Sharpen your SKILLS. "Do you see a man who is skilled in his work? He will serve before kings." Proverbs 22:29 :He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; he who cherishes understanding prospers." Proverbs 19:8 Poor 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Excellent (Where do you rate?) 3. Keep your WORD. "Many a man claims to have unfailing love, but a faithful man who can find? Proverbs 20:6 "Sensible people always think before they act" Proverbs 13:16 (GN) Poor 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Excellent (Where do you rate?) 4. Do more than is EXPECTED. "If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him tow miles." Matthew 5:41 Poor 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Excellent (Where do you rate?) We strive to be a 10, but in reality we are much lower. The only perfect 10 is Jesus Christ!
