Wisdom can’t be measured by an IQ test, acquired in a post-grad degree, or proven by profession or position. True wisdom is seeing life from God’s perspective …and then just doing it.
 
Wisdom: Seeing and Doing]]> 30:19 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_10_05_MP3/235//1223312412 http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_09_28_MP3/234/
As the U.S. President and Congress meet to prevent economic chaos, the Church is also at risk, clutching the same consumerism, envy and self-directed ambition that has poised Wall Street on the edge of destruction. James calls Christ followers to redirect our ambition from self to service--using all of our drive, success and giftedness for the service of God's Kingdom...

HeartHealth: confronting envy and selfish ambition]]> 33:09 Sun, 28 Sep 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_09_28_MP3/234//1222458535 http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_09_21_MP3/233/
With our tongues, we both praise God...and curse others. Scripture calls us to "stop, drop and roll," choosing to use our tongues to heal, not hurt--speaking only those words that promote God’s purpose in our own lives, and in the lives of others.

Two-Faced – confronting the contradiction within]]> 31:29 Sun, 21 Sep 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_09_21_MP3/233//1222080962 http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_09_14_MP3/232/
It’s never a question of IF we’ll slip up—it’s only a matter of WHEN. But, in the midst of our failure, James reminds us never to focus on the bigness of our challenge, but on the bigness of a grace-filled God, the God who converts tragedy into triumph…
 
Trip-Ups: When You Slip Don’t Fall

Is what you “believe” lived out through what you “do”? Or does your real life little resemble the core values and beliefs you claim to profess?

Transforming an obedient life into a joy-filled life, an ordinary life into an extraordinary life, doesn’t happen when we remain clueless, curious or merely convinced. It is only through complete commitment that we are empowered to live out God’s purpose and call...Convinced to Committed

Following God's compelling call often means doing uncomfortable things in unlikely places. But, through our obedience, God connects us with our place of passionate service and joy… Loving Dayton

We all seek that one special place in our lives of no worries, blue skies, joy, but too often settle for shortcuts, convinced the next meal, money, medication, or mall will take us there. It is only by living life in and through the Spirit of God that we will reach…That Special Place.

We can spend our whole lives thinking of ways to make a difference in the world yet never act on them. But as follower’s of Christ we are called to take steps in faith and live out those ideas through...The Discipline of Service.]]> 27:16 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_08_10_MP3/227//1218630132 http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_08_03_MP3/226/
Asking for God's direction for our lives is sometimes easier said than done. We need to move from a life of good intentions to faithfully living out the path God desires for us.]]> 30:58 Sun, 03 Aug 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_08_03_MP3/226//1217619302 http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_07_27_MP3/225/
Life is an incredible gift...and incredibly brief. Jesus calls us with urgency to commit ourselves - heart, soul, mind and strength - to
The One Thing.]]> 32:53 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_07_27_MP3/225//1217251192 http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_07_20_MP3/224/
“Stinking thinking” can create believers who are both saved …and miserable! God transforms us and our minds when we work our own recovery program, finding the serenity that only God’s Spirit provides. ]]> 30:42 Sun, 20 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_07_20_MP3/224//1217022256 http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_07_13_MP3/222/
Too often Jesus' followers play "Candyland Christianity" -- sweet, artificial and safe -- reading God's printed word without demonstrating the action-packed directive of the Living Word. ]]> 38:44 Sun, 13 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_07_13_MP3/222//1215808155 http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_07_06_MP3/221/
Love your neighbor as yourself... the greatest command yet the hardest to accomplish. We cannot truly love ourselves as God loves us, until we evaluate our lives and take a deep look at what is holding us back from loving others.]]> 27:09 Sun, 06 Jul 2008 00:00:00 EDT http://ginghamsburg.org/sermon/resources/2008_07_06_MP3/221//1215096466
