CALVARY CHAPEL VERO BEACH Jim Gallagher

Three main points to this teaching: 1)The approach; 2) The interaction 3) The need for God

POINT 1: The Approach
1. Soften their hearts towards Him
2. Model life with Him
3. Show the need for Him

POINT 2: The Interaction
1. Sell all that you have
Quote: “Jesus requires more than we thought, but offers more than we could possibly imagine.” - Tim Keller
2. Take up the cross, and follow Me
a. Following Suggests That Jesus leads and I Follow
b. Following suggests that He is taking us somewhere
c. Following requires self-denial 

POINT 3: The Need For God
Mark 10:27 But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.”

QUESTION
Based upon what we have read so far is Jacob obeying or disobeying the word of God?

PARENTING GOALS

STEPS TO TAKE

Help them to understand they are called to influence the world not be influenced by it
Help them discover their unique gifting so they can discover their calling

David wrote this beautiful song and we are uplifted by it.

David didn't follow Pastor Jim's rules for a happy marriage, but you can. Here they are:
1) Remove Compromise and Commit to Christ
2) Forgive the Things that happened in the past
3) Talk through reasonable ways to express love for each other for whatever season you're currently in.
4) Spend Time Together! It doesn't have to be elaborate, but simple time together is important for a healthy marriage.
5) Treat each other like you did when you were trying to win the other over.
Remember, Pastor Jim has a great little book on marriage available on Amazon.
Just search "Jim Gallagher" and it will pop up as "Always: A Handbook on Marriage" with Kristie Gallagher as co-author.

God had changed Esau's rage and turned it into love for his brother.

David's last psalm is a fitting end for describing his life.
