#WordsRevealHearts
“And so, really, what we need to know and understand and realize is the words that are coming out of our mouth. They're they're telling the world what's in our hearts, what's the condition of our hearts at that time. Usually, people that use hurtful words, they're hurting too. That's why the bible tells us other things, like to persevere and endure with one another. You know, sometimes we need to realize, hey, someone's hurting. And, you know, what can we do by using some more positive words? Can help start building them up, help them overcome what's causing their pain, and see what we can do to bring them back an attitude and actions and reactions that are more positive, that are more helpful, that are more uplifting and encouraging, and that help to build up and impart grace.”

“At the end of the day, friends, this isn't about, you know, selling giving to the poor. That's not what this story is about in particular. This particular story is about responding to something that Mary saw. She saw how good God had been. She saw what Jesus had done for her, and she was overwhelmed, and it caused her to do these over the top kinds of things. We're even told in the in the story that that, even Judas, when he was saying these words, he wasn't saying them because he cared about the poor. He was saying them because he wanted to skim off the top. That's not what this story is about. This story is about noticing what God has done and then responding to it in a way that is righteous, in a way that is not not in like, not designed to win more of God's favor, just to say thank you for the favor you've already been given.”

“Just like the prodigal son that came home to the father and the father embraced him. That is our God, Ready to embrace every one of you. I do not know what you're entangled in. I don't know what you're involved in, but Jesus does. Let's get out of the rocks. Let's get out of the trample ground. Let's get out of the thorns. Let's dig in on Jesus. Today, this place is yours. This is between you and the Lord, not me. I am not God. I'm just jacked up as y'all. We need Jesus. He died for us so we can have everlasting life. Let's pray. Father, we need you desperately.”

“Generally don't have a summer that goes by that one air conditioner doesn't go down and calls us a lot of financial cost. And and even though we try to implement maintenance protocols and service service and maintenance contracts, it's just so many moving parts that things break. And so that's what the trustees are for. The trustees serve as as that particular body that answers those calls. We don't necessarily do the work, but we do facilitate and make sure the work gets done so that God's house is ordered, the lights are on, it's a safe and welcoming and inviting place.”

#WordsDivideChurches
“It's just churches can be divided by the words that come out of our mouths. So we should be very careful. We can be a close knit, growing, loving, caring, nurturing, empowering church with positive words. Or we can be a church that struggles and struggles. It has moments of good things, but then things go down because some negative things start being thrown and hurled. Not saying you can't disagree on something. I'm not saying that. But how is it being said? And what attitude is it being said? What are the choice of words that are being said? You know, we have to be very mindful of all of that.”

#ChooseGoodFruit
“Because what it boils down to is this. The last point of the message. Producing good fruit or bad fruit. It's our choice. Just like sin is. It's our choice. You wanna disagree with something? Fine. It's okay. Just do it in a tone of voice and choice of words that doesn't reveal the negative junk. It's okay to disagree, but don't be disagreeable. Our mouth speak from the overflow of what is in our hearts. Isn't that true?”

#KeepWordsPure
“We really should make sure that the words that come out of our mouth are not foul, and they're not abusive because they divide hearts. Those kind of words divide husband and wife. They divide parents and kids. They divide churches. Those words have no place in the life of a believer.”

#DisagreeKindly
“Not saying, you know, you gotta understand. You can disagree, just not be disagreeable. This is between husband and wife. This is between parents and kids. This is between church people. This is between you and your neighbors. This is any communication that you have with any individual. It's important that we understand. It's okay to disagree, but don't be disagreeable about it. Don't act in a way that's gonna produce bad fruit. Bad words, bad actions produce bad fruit. You can't say, I'm I'm working good here when it's all coming out bad.”

#GoodWordsGrowChurch
“And and honestly, words producing good fruit, it helps to build up churches. It helps churches to grow. It helps churches to be more effective, more fruitful in doing God's kingdom work. The more positive, the more helpful, the more encouraging our words can be, the more it can build up churches. It can build up individuals. It can impart grace. It promotes love. It connects our hearts. Do you see how all those fit together?”
47s
#NoJustifyingSin
“One of the things, next point in your message says this, the worst thing we can do when we are producing bad fruit is to justify our sin. Folks, I'm telling you, there is no justification for sin. When you're wrong, you can try to preach right all you want, but when you're being hurtful in your words and you're belittling and you're being critical and complaining, and it's being done in a very, a way that is just is not helping anything, you can't justify that.”
