The Sunday Spark: Jesus of Nazareth

>>Youtube: Jesus of Nazareth

This clip depicts the amazing mercy of God through Jesus and his understanding, which shall be our new understanding of his word and how the word is to be accepted. It also tells of the greatest commandments to uphold as believers around 1:10min. This clip has to be my favorite of the whole movie from the beginning where Jesus tells the Pharisees that "You should not judge." Then a great illustration of forgiveness, as he tell Mary Magdalene that "Your faith has saved you." Finally ending the clip with Jesus amongst his apostles questioning them as to who they think he truly is. This clip ends with one of my favorite verses- Luke 9:23 I challenge you to read/google it right after reading this post. Now go, and be a warrior4Christ my friends!

The Sunday Spark: David and Goliath

Today's topic is inspired by a service I attended that discussed the story of David defeating Goliath.
 
1 Samuel 17:45-47
"David said to the Philistine, "You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the LORD Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46 This day the LORD will hand you over to me, and I'll strike you down and cut off your head. Today I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. 47 All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the LORD saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he will give all of you into our hands."

Meaningful Music Video 3- "Our God" by Chris Tomlin

In times of great destruction, floods, earthquakes, fires, war, a social decline in values and purpose, etc. many find it hard to believe in a higher power; a God that allows all of this to happen right? I'm sure you know someone who has said that. We may also find ourselves wondering if there is a God, will he be able to pull us out of this mess? Is he still there for us? As Christ even said while dying on the cross "My God, my God why have you forsaken me?". This may be a moment where we feel so alone that no one can help us through our struggles. But this I say to you "Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Hebrews 11:1
I hope the song below brings great encouragement to you has it has for me.

So I challenge you to ask yourselves: Has God forsaken you, or have you weakened your faith in the power of our God?




Favorite Verse: "And if Our God is for us, then who could ever stop us, and if our God is with us, then what can stand against?"

An Illustrated Proof of God....worth listening to

I will let this video speak for itself. However as a little side note this Youtube channel that the video is taken from is run by Kurt Cameron and has a lot of great videos with many debates on the topic of faith. I hope you find this helpful.

The Sunday Spark: LifeHouse's Everything Skit

This video is a skit done at a Christian music concert "Winterfest" in Knoxville, TN. 2006.
The skit really speaks to our young adult generation and is something worth watching. It depicts our journey with Christ from birth and themes of all the challenges we face along the way. I'm not going to lie, it's pretty heart wrenching. If you know someone that may be struggling with one of these themes portrayed here, I highly suggest bringing them to this video or passing it along. Almost 15 million people have already viewed it and are causing quite a movement. Don't believe me just read the comments below the vid...think how can you help someone today? How can you lead someone today?
