Growing your relationship with God
By Pastor Noah. Filed in Sermons |
My message this week was focused on creating an atmosphere that is conducive to growing your relationship with God. My third ingredient in creating growing atmosphere was: Authentic Relationship.
Although I only knew Bob Andrew for a short time we spent lot of time together. We shared a passion for spiritual disciples and teamed up to teach our 201 course “Disciples for Life”. Bob was Jewish and had rich appreciation of his heritage that gave me beautiful insights about faith in Jesus. Bob wanted the best for me and wanted to see me grow in my ability to teach and lead and shared some great advice with me. I have one additional thought for you as you think about being committed to maturing in your faith, it comes not from me but from Bob. It is the from his outline “Keys to a Quality Quiet Time” -
4. Willingness To Obey
This attitude is crucial. You don’t come (to the Bible) to chose what you will or won’t do, but with the purpose of doing everything God wants you to. Come to meet the Lord having already chosen to do His will, no matter what.
What gift Bob is for those who traveled with him! Bob went to be with Jesus this last Sunday night. Dan is sending an email regarding his memorial service.
