June 7, 2020 Sermon Series: “Shades of a Father“ Speaker: Pastor Sparks Text: Matthew 3:16-17 1. A Father ANNOUNCES His Son • Good fathers are never ashamed of their children! • Regardless of how a child is brought here, once he/she is here, don’t ever let them know a time that you aren’t thankful to have them in your life! • A Father ADORES His Son • Children can live without a lot of things, but love isn’t one of them • Next to giving your child the knowledge of having a relationship w/ The Lord, the best thing a father can give his child unconditional love o Unconditional means that if no one else affirms, likes, appreciates them, daddy will o Unconditional means you love them thru their mistakes o Unconditional means we love them like God loves us! • You can love your child unconditionally without approving of the junk they sometimes do • Don’t starve your children of your love and affection! We are physical beings created for physical interaction; how you nurture your children plays a significant role in how they respond to the world around them • Make telling your children “I love you” a regular occurrence • A Father ACCEPTS His Son • God said “I’m well pleased”, which signified God’s approval of His Son; when’s the last time you told your child “I’m proud of you”? • A child’s responsibility is to be what God has created them to be, not be what parents think they should be • Don’t hold your children hostage with your expectations • Don’t hold the mistakes of your children over their head • A Father APPRENTICES His Son • A good father gives his son some work to do • If you want your children to have a meaningful life, teach them how to do some work • Your children may not want to follow in your footsteps, but they should pick SOMETHING up from you that makes them better! • Do your children want to follow Jesus based on your relationship with Jesus? -- -Deacon Anthony D. Sparks

When you commit to your journey, it's like dating the most beautiful person you've ever met: After the amazing conversations, romantic dates, & undeniable connection, you find yourself in the "spend the night" phase--and that's when you see their real hair is more kinks than waves; underneath the makeup, their face is blemished; the bra is push-up or the t-shirt is body-slimming; and now you're seeing the body you were mesmerized by is a little more "flab" than "fit". So now you're asking yourself, "do I stay or do I go?"... Connect with Anthony: Anthony D.

In this episode, Anthony answers the following questions asked by people all around the country: What do I do when my purpose changes? Do I keep pushing or change accordingly? Am I wrong for exploring opportunities and never settling down on one job? What do you do when someone you've looked up to and who's work you've admired, turns out to be not who you thought they were? If there was a formula to consistency, what would it be? How do you handle it when people who said they'd support you, don't support you? When is it faith and when is it foolish? How do I know whether to keep trying or simply move on?
