How to Leave a Lasting Mark for The Kingdom

June 14, 2013

Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear sign to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God.           

Philippians 1:27-28

I heard about two young men who one day saw a couple of attractive young ladies trying to move a refrigerator through the door of their apartment. So they rolled up their sleeves, puffed out their chests, and said, “Let’s go help.”

They asked the girls to step aside and began to push and shove, straining and sweating for a good 20 minutes, but the fridge wouldn’t budge. So finally, one man said to the other, “I don’t think we’re ever going to get this refrigerator out of this apartment.” The other fellow said, “Get it out? I thought they were moving it in!”

Many times, people in the church love to push and pull against each other rather than work together. They want the music this way or the preaching style that way. And they never end up finding enough common ground to work together for the sake of the Gospel.

But what if we could look past what divides us and remember what really makes us united: Jesus? Not only would our churches look different, but how people outside the body of Christ perceive the church would be different! So work together, not against one another, and leave your mark for the Kingdom of God!

LEAVE A LASTING MARK FOR THE KINGDOM BY LOOKING PAST DIVISION IN THE BODY AND WORKING TOGETHER FOR JESUS CHRIST!

Get the best from 2012 to be your best in 2013


Dear Friend,

While many pastors shy away from addressing controversial issues, I sincerely believe you need to hear straight, “bulls-eye” biblical teaching on many of today’s hot topics. Not only to grow in your faith as a believer, but to give winsome, compassionate answers to the hard questions our culture is asking.

That’s why I want to send you a special new resource today – my CD series called The Best of 2012.

This series contains 10 of my most popular and compelling messages from 2012, and it’s a resource that’s sure to help you in 2013 because it includes messages such as, “Are All Religions the Same?”, “Lessons on Leadership,” and “What Is a Christian?”

The Best of 2012 is my gift to thank you for your donation to help PowerPoint continue to proclaim God’s Word and truth ’til the whole world hears. So please request your copy when you give today.

Thank you!
