It stems from a Safety Memo that was circulated at UPS, however the basis of the memo bears an uncanny resemblance to the principles of scripture. When we consider the connections that the scriptures make to real life, it is not only interesting and intriguing, but the Word of God has real power to convict and reveal our own heart.

Sermon Notes for "The Trouble with Rubble" in PDF Format

"When Obedience brings Opposition" Nehemiah 4 Have you ever found that the closer you walk with The Lord, There more grief you get from unbelievers. This shouldn’t surprise us. In John chapter 17, Jesus tell us that "we are no more of the world than He is." And that "the world will hate us, Because of Him." So it is no surprise that when the Lord is working through us, the enemies of God will try to thwart whatever God is trying to accomplish through us. And it was no different for Nehemiah. God gave Nehemiah the task of rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem. And it seems no sooner did he lay the first brick, that there came opposition from the enemies of God. "The trouble with Rubble" is a message originally delivered in 2001 by Don Howatt at Eastgate Bible Chapel. In this message Don relates how Nehemiah dealt with opposition and discouragement , and how believers today can do the same.

With a keen eye and warped sense of humor Don gives us an illustration drawn from a routine encounter at Carl's Jr., Don shows us that God's desire for us is........ "Bigger and Better".

This is the original WORD Research Podcast that debuted on October 7, 2006 “a word about The WORD” is a message based on Psalm 19:7-9 where Don Howatt describes what Word Research is all about, encouraging listeners to read God’s Word. ”Get to know the written Word and you will get to ‘The Living WORD’” as The Apostle Paul Prays in Ephesians 1:17: I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. Here with Don’s informed but personal style, he shares the scriptures with you just like he would if you were hanging out together.

In this introductory podcast, Don explains the difference between this new podcast and the other “WORD Research Podcast”. Don also describes what “Enhanced Podcast” means. This one is “Short & Sweet”, so give it a listen.
