My recent message to the young generation: Don't just be a hashtag activist. Margaret Thatcher said: “It used to be about trying to do something. Now it's about trying to be someone.” I challenged Gen Z – that you will be the generation known for the content of your character (in the spirit of Martin Luther King Jr.) and not just the content of your Instagram and TikTok.
This is the DNA of Heart of God Church. We are a 'Do Something' church. We are idealistic, activistic and pragmatic. We are dreamers and doers. This is us. I told our church: "We are not a comfortable, convenient, consumer-oriented church or Christianity. If you want to join us, be prepared to be kicked to do something."
We know that God is the God of the mountains, God of the valleys. He is at the top. He is at the bottom. But is God in the middle? The middle is always the hardest. Middle of Covid-19. Middle Management. Middle of a Marathon. Middle Child Syndrome. All hard places. We are in the MIDDLE of a pandemic. Too far away from the beginning, yet we can’t catch sight of the finishing line. It’s easy to be deflated and discouraged being stuck in the middle! Like Joshua, don’t give up but be Made In The Middle!
In this message by Pastor Lia, find out the 3 Fs needed to finish your Christian race strong and Consider Your Destiny.
As Pastor How unpacks Genesis 8 in this Bible study, learn the significance behind Noah sending out the Raven and the Dove.
In Genesis 8, Noah sent out two birds – a Raven and a Dove. The Raven went to look for dead flesh, while the Dove went to find living things. Similarly, two birds will be sent out to rest on two types of Christians – the fleshly and the spiritual.
Pastor How shares practical tips on how to build our spirit stronger!
“...tongues of fire… came to REST on EACH OF THEM” Acts 2:3 (NIV) Will the Dove or the Raven rest on you? The Dove rested on each of them individually, not collectively. Usually, our mental image of the Holy Spirit falling is collective—on a church or conference. But this year, the Holy Spirit will fall on individuals. Mass church events are limited… but personal time with the Holy Spirit is unlimited. Are you ready for a Personal Pentecost?
