Lutzer Series: When God Is First Think about this: what would happen if, every time we met someone, we treated the encounter as a divine appointment It might change our whole approach to other people. God uses seemingly chance meetings as points of contact for the gospel. That is what happened in Acts chapter 8, and what can happen in the chapter of God's work we are writing today.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/31/2007 He Owns Our Appointments 2 of 3- October 30, 2007 Tuesday, October 30, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First Ever wonder if your coming to faith in Christ was an accident, just coincidence, or maybe just a good choice on your part Not a chance. "Salvation is of the Lord," the Bible says, and that includes the circumstances of your conversion. In Acts chapter 8 God went to unusual lengths to get the gospel to a needy Ethiopian. And He did the same for you and for me.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/30/2007 He Owns Our Appointments 1 of 3- October 29, 2007 Monday, October 29, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First These days, people look to their personal digital assistants, or PDAs, to find out what is next on their busy schedules. Keeping appointments is crucial for business success. But God has a heavenly PDA for His people, and sometimes makes sudden changes in His list of things for us to do. Today: how the Holy Spirit sets the agenda for a child of God.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/29/2007 He Owns Our Future 2 of 2- October 26, 2007 Friday, October 26, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First While we focus everyday on the here and now, eternity awaits us. Those who know Christ have a glorious future ahead of them. The doorway to heaven is the death of the believer. When Stephen was martyred, he had a vision of Jesus welcoming him home. For those who fear death, this can be your vision as well.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/26/2007 He Owns Our Future 1 of 2- October 25, 2007 Thursday, October 25, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First Most people invest heavily in their futures. Savings accounts and retirement plans give us comfort for those "golden years." But wise believers know that the real future lies in the hands of God, not in any plans we can make. Like the martyr Stephen, our ultimate destiny lies beyond this life. Today: you will hear about the eternal future ahead for a child of God.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/25/2007 He Owns Our Status 3 of 3- October 24, 2007 Wednesday, October 24, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First In seeking employees, interviewers look for the right education and experience. But for workers in the body of Christ, it is different. God's list of qualifications for kingdom jobs includes character and spiritual maturity. And having the "wisdom from above" is a key requirement. Today: finding your way into the place God has for you in a local church.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/24/2007 He Owns Our Status 2 of 3- October 23, 2007 Tuesday, October 23, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First Filling jobs usually means resums, interviews and salary offers. But it is a very different story in the body of Christ. God has called each believer to a task in His kingdom, and the book of Acts shows us how He makes His calling known. Today: meet God's personnel department for your local church.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/23/2007 He Owns Our Status 1 of 3- October 22, 2007 Monday, October 22, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First In our culture, reaching the top often means clawing your way past other people, doing whatever it takes to succeed. Things are different in God's kingdom. "The first shall be last, and the last shall be first," as Jesus said. In the early church, leadership was demonstrated by servanthood. Today: a look at how to get ahead, God's way.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/22/2007 He Owns Our Reputation 3 of 3- October 19, 2007 Friday, October 19, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First In the body of Christ, personal sins cannot be swept under the rug indefinitely. Sooner or later, everyone feels their impact. We do affect each other, and that is one reason why Ananias and Sapphira were judged for lying to God in front of the Apostles. Hoping to look good, they ended up in the local cemetery. The message, then and now, is clear: God tolerates no deceit.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/19/2007 He Owns Our Reputation 2 of 3- October 18, 2007 Thursday, October 18, 2007 Host: Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer Series: When God Is First As we all know, money and politics are closely related. People who support winning candidates expect something in return. Sadly, the same can be true in churches. Heavy contributors are often the heavy decision-makers. This may have played a part in the motivations of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts chapter five.http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Running_To_Win/?bcd=10/18/2007 |
