These are the notes from a recent sermon preached at Lyons Community Church. Our new Pastor has been delivering on time and amazing messages.
Subject: Relationships…Are you competing or completing?
Biblical References: Ephesians 5:31; Proverbs 22:6
Message Notes:
- Competing: Striving against one another to gain or win something.
- Completing: Making (Something) whole or perfect.
- We must love the other side of our relationship.
*Marriage: You spiritually become connected as one flesh.
- We need to speak to make sure we are building up our spouse.
- Communication is not confrontation.
- Communicating is to talk and work things out in love.
*Family:
- Train a child in the way they should go.
- Do not compete against your children.
*Friendship, Co-Workers, & Church Body:
- Are you pouring your whole heart into everything that you do?
- Are you pouring Jesus into every relationship you have?
- Are you cheating the time clock or being dishonorable to God?
- Don’t compete against your friends but build them up and let them build you up. It doesn’t take anything away from you.
Our GREATEST task is sharing the Gospel of Jesus.
