We need each other, because we all have different roles to fill. Together we can make a stronger Kingdom impact. How to serve? Honor God with your service. Strive for excellence in the person God has made you, and travel the path that brings blessings to others. http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/the-team http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/the-team.mp3 Sun, 31 Jan 2010 15:25:37 GMT Mike Claypool God's Vision for His Church team,kingdom,honor,serve,excellence 29:03 By God's design the church is to be filled with servants. In Acts 6 we see there was a need for servants to take some of the workload off the church elders. What do these Biblical servants look like? They are men of good repuation and filled with integrity; men who are willing to look beyond their own interests and serve others; and men who are willing to accept oversight over Kingdom tasks. God's vision is that His church would grow and we all have a role to play. http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/the-servants http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/gods-vision-for-his-church-the-servants.mp3 Sun, 24 Jan 2010 14:57:53 GMT Mike Claypool God's Vision for His Church servants,reputation,integrity,oversight,grow 27:59 God's design for church leaders is that they must follow before leading. Leaders are charged to feed God's church and it's important to lead by example. Jesus demonstrated humble leadership by washing the disciples' feet. The church that is led by God will look like God because we are to elevate Jesus, not ourselves. http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/the-leaders http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/gods-vision-for-his-church-the-leaders.mp3 Sun, 17 Jan 2010 16:12:36 GMT Mike Claypool God's Vision for His Church leader,humble,example 29:16 Jesus is the Head of the church and when we try to take control we get in trouble. We are created to be connected to the Head, but if we break that connection we don't grow and wander from the path God has for us. Jesus is our adhesive in broken times. He wants to mend us, but we have to allow Him. Our attachment to the Head brings harmony to the body. We each have different roles to play, but we have a common goal and a common authority. http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/the-head http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/gods-vision-for-his-church-the-head.mp3 Sun, 10 Jan 2010 15:24:47 GMT Mike Claypool God's Vision for His Church unity,harmony,mend,connection,head 28:38 What are your New Year's resolutions - lose weight, eat better, exercise, get on a budget? Our relationship with Jesus should be at the top of the list. First, we must believe in Jesus. He is the risen Savior who saves us from our sins. Then look to Jesus and focus on Him. We can also learn from Jesus as we become more like Him. And we can worship Jesus because as believers we not only know who we are, we know where we're going. http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/what-will-you-do-with-jesus-this-year http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/what-will-you-do-with-jesus-this-year.mp3 Sun, 03 Jan 2010 20:28:51 GMT Brad Ferris What are your New Year's resolutions - lose weight, eat better, exercise, get on a budget?

Passover was a celebration to remember what God had done for the Jewish nation and to look forward that He would continue to provide for them. A New Testament example of a celebration is the Lord's Supper. Together, as the body of Christ, we can celebrate what God did for us through Jesus and have faith that we'll spend eternity with Him. http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/we-celebrate-what-we-value http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/we-celebrate-what-we-value.mp3 Sun, 27 Dec 2009 21:08:30 GMT Adam Colter We celebrate for many reasons - personal, family, sporting events, but God calls us to celebrate certain events for certain reasons.

We learn that we should trust that God's plans are the best. We should also focus on God and not the circumstance. Lastly, we should strive to please God and not others. Because of his obedience, God used Joseph. God wants to use us, also. http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/the-impact-of-obedience http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/the-impact-of-obedience.mp3 Sun, 06 Dec 2009 21:50:25 GMT Brad Ferris Joseph went through some confusing circumstances, but chose to be obedient, and was used to help change the world.

Because we belong to Jesus, God blesses us with peace that we can't understand. Our identity helps us give thanks in all circumstances and our actions declare how thankful we are. http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/the-impact-of-a-grateful-heart http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/the-impact-of-a-grateful-heart.mp3 Sun, 22 Nov 2009 15:44:33 GMT Mike Claypool Among all the shopping, eating, and gathering with family, do we make time to be thankful?

As warriors our goal is to claim victory. Warriors may not always understand, but we are always to serve. We should ask ourselves: 1. What am I doing to please my King this week? 2. Will my trust in the Lord lead me to certain victory this week? 3. Am I willing to keep on serving tomorrow, even though I don't understand today? http://www.sermoncloud.com/first-christian-church-newburgh/beyond-the-call http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/530/beyond-the-call.mp3 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:39:59 GMT Mike Claypool A warrior's purpose is to please the king.
